With an adaptable design, new TruTone technology, and weatherproof IP54 rating, PARAGON redefines color fidelity and control for more refined creative expression in indoor and outdoor environments.
Elation will be captivating attendees at the LDI tradeshow in Las Vegas with an exploration of lighting’s next frontier. The PARAGON series is at the center of the journey, a groundbreaking new standard in professional entertainment lighting designed to satisfy the highest creative standards. The PARAGON series represents a leap forward in intelligent, precision lighting for entertainment, combining sleek design, cutting-edge technology, and unmatched reliability.
At the heart of Elation's LDI exhibit, the PARAGON series stands as a whole new class of LED profile luminaires. Designed for applications requiring superior output, powerful beams, ultra-quiet operation, and stunningly precise gobos, colors, and framing cuts, it features Elation’s custom TruTone variable CRI technology, enabling designers to achieve intelligent adaptability with exact control over color fidelity.
"We are extremely excited to present PARAGON, a masterfully designed lighting solution that perfectly underscores our commitment to pioneering innovation in lighting technology, backed by years of dedicated research and development,” stated Elation Product Manager Matthias Hinrichs.
“With PARAGON, we’ve set a new benchmark for fixture adaptability and creative control with a standard of features unprecedented in an automated moving head.”
The highest quality in modern, flexible lighting solutions
Designed from the ground up, PARAGON is a best-in-class series of entertainment lighting crafted to elevate shows, stages, and experiences with an elegant yet functional design, unmatched adaptability, and unwavering reliability. Each fixture projects a superior quality of light, combining innovative CRI technology and robust construction to ensure flawless indoor or outdoor performance. Breaking from conventional standards, PARAGON embodies the highest quality in modern, flexible lighting solutions.
“Lighting designers will be amazed by the accuracy and detail they can achieve from these luminaires, whether they're lighting a concert stage, theater production, or corporate event,” Hinrichs exclaimed. “I have no hesitation in saying it is the most compact, lightweight, and feature-rich design for a professional lighting product on the market today. It really is a paragon of innovation and is the most state-of-the-art fixture Elation has ever produced.”
Precision and Control
The PARAGON series is built around a custom-designed white LED engine and Elation’s TruTone variable CRI system, delivering unparalleled flexibility for designers to find the best blend of lighting intensity and color accuracy. TruTone allows seamless adjustment from CRI 70 to CRI 93, offering a true variable color fidelity that enhances mixed color tones and enables precise white spectrum adjustments.
This level of control empowers designers to customize and adjust the lighting with perfect accuracy to match any scene or artistic requirement. With TruTone, PARAGON can play a dual role in a single show, such as a key light with high CRI in one scene and an effect light with high output in the next.
Infinite Creative Possibilities
PARAGON features Elation’s fastest and quietest CMY color mixing array, developed alongside a variable linear CTO. This powerful combination, along with its color rendering and beam control flexibility, enables designers to create more seamless transitions and more exacting visuals. Whether using subtle color transitions or bold, dynamic effects, PARAGON gives lighting professionals limitless creative possibilities.
One product, multiple applications
The PARAGON combines multiple fixture roles in a single, adaptable design. Its precision-engineered profile lens can be easily interchanged with a Fresnel Wash or PC Beam lens for greater flexibility. One fixture, multiple applications: Profile, Beam, Wash, Low or High CRI.
IP54 Flexibility
Built to endure inclement weather and withstand the rigors of demanding show schedules, PARAGON’s IP54 weatherproof rating offers protection against water and dust ingress. It performs reliably in any indoor space and temporary outdoor environments, elevating its versatility for multi-event use. IP54 allows for a more compact, lightweight design with superior output and eliminates many compromises associated with IP65 fixtures. PARAGON delivers consistent performance no matter the circumstances yet requires little maintenance.
For even greater peace of mind and long-term reliability, PARAGON comes with extended warranty coverage, which includes protection for the first three years of operation and a five-year warranty on the LED array.
Available in Two Models for Ultimate Versatility
The PARAGON series is available in two high-performance models designed for various professional lighting applications.
