Cotelux fluorescent light: the best choice

You cannot imagine how many advantages Cotelux Cool light systems can offer you, until you’ve worked with them…

  • It’s not only the great light output obtained, but also the quality of the light. Even when the fixture heats up, the colour temperature remains the same, so the chromatic quality is not interfered.
  • Total compatibility with incandescent or discharge lamps when using the colour balanced series 930, in order to allow any possible combinations with other equipments based in incandescence.
  • Four different types of dimming versions are available for a perfect control of the light: manual regulation, internal regulation 0-10V, external regulation through cut phase dimmers, or digital regulation with protocol DMX-512. Also a wide range of accessories help to obtain different lighting purposes.
  • Complete flicker free regulation due to the use of electronic ballasts working at high frequency, which avoids damaged shootings.
  • The Fast Replaceable Ballast system patented by Cotelux allows quick changes of the dimming version in the same fixture with only changing the removable modules found in the back part of all the Studio systems. This benefit also helps easy maintenance of the ballast and control registries.

The use of Cotelux lighting systems directly means a great investment for the future. Note the following:

  • The fluorescent bulbs to be used by Cotelux provide a luminous spectrum with RA higher than 95 (full spectrum true original colours), with no need to use corrective filters. It is also noticeable the life of a fluorescent bulb: 10.000h. Quite the opposite, incandescent bulbs have a medium life of 100h, and their cost is much higher.
  • When setting a new studio with Cotelux, the expenses in wiring installations and in electrical power will decrease amazingly as they use 75% less energy than incandescent lights. Additionally, incandescence needs powerful air-conditioning systems as it wastes 90% of the energy generating heat. It is also true that actors, anchormen or interviewed prefer cool light in order to reduce perspiration and avoid make-up retouches.

No doubt, Cotelux lighting systems are a great investment for the future, amortized before their installation.
