The most powerful Fresnel Wash of the Robe iSeries, the IP65-rated iFORTE® Fresnel delivers a far-reaching, beautifully soft beam with adavanced beam control, designed for the harshest of weather!

From concert touring to classical ballet, the iFORTE® Fresnel combines subtlety and power, making it ideal for any outdoor show environment.

For task suitability, iFORTE® Fresnel is available with a choice of two patented data- capturing IP65-rated TRANSFERABLE ENGINEs offering all the advantages of field exchange, cost-effective replacement, and the ability to keep up with LED development to ensure exceptionally long fixture life. The iSE-TE™ 1000W White XP (Xtra Performance) 6.700 K, 40.500 lm (Integrating sphere) with CRI70 for those wanting maximum output; and the iSE-TE™ 1000W White HCF (High Colour Fidelity) 6.000 K, 27.540 lm (Integrating sphere) with CRI 96 for exceptional colour rendition.

Its patented F2L™ two element smooth outer surface lens maintains a traditional Fresnel-style beam. The smooth front lens reduces outdoor detritus build-up, while the unique parCoat™ hydrophobic, oleophobic-resistant coating prevents build-up and facilitates easy cleaning without damage.

The motorised 10:1 zoom optical system, with a 6° to 61° zoom range, provides all the wash flexibility you need.

Colour generation is achieved via a CMY colour mixing system. With two colour wheels and a variable CTO of 3.000 – 6.700 K, you have all the tools to achieve everything from dense saturates to refined pastel shades. ChromaTint™ patented green content control technology allows fast adjustment, ideal for broadcast users.

In a departure from other Robe Fresnels to maximise flexible beam control, our patented PLANO4™ framing shutter module features four individual blades in separate planes with module rotation of +/- 60°.

Two MagFrost™ fast change 5° and 10° frosts provide additional beam softening. The internal patented RotaScrim™ module with graduated filer position control for asymmetrical style lighting of drapes and unwanted hotspot removal, capable of +/-180° rotation, provides another level of beam control.

Eliminating distracting pre-use pan and tilt calibration movement, our patented MAPS™ (Motionless Absolute Positioning System) allows the fixture to fully calibrate while remaining static, useful when fixtures are in confined spaces.

RAINS™ (Robe Automatic Ingress Protection System), a highly advanced patented technology, not only prevents ingress but actively manages the fixture's internal microclimate, removing moisture build-up from heating and cooling cycles to protect electronics. Simple maintenance procedures save preparation time.

The luminaire runs an ingenious Self Pressure Test to check internal pressure. Requiring no special tools and taking under 3 minutes, the test alerts you to incorrect gasket and cover placement or improperly tightened screws, ensuring maximum protection.

For operation in extreme cold, the iFORTE® Fresnel includes innovative patented POLAR+™ technology. This standby mode keeps sensors and communication channels active while greatly reducing power consumption. When activated, POLAR+™ automatically maintains an internal temperature for instant operability down to minus 50 degrees centigrade!

Ideal for remote outdoor installations, REAP™, the Robe Ethernet Access Portal communication software, viewed as a web browser, shows real-time fixture monitoring, including complete RAINS™ status information like pressure and internal saturation levels.

By including NFC (Near-Field Communication) technology, you can access setup, diagnostic and performance features directly from your mobile device using the Robe Com app, even without power.

Keeping up with technological advances, we include Epass™ for maintaining network connectivity, and Cpulse™ for flicker-free management of the latest camera systems.

Innovations

GDTF – General Device Type Format

The General Device Type Format creates a unified definition for exchange of data for the operation of intelligent luminaries, such as moving lights. The file format is human readable and developed using open source formats.

REAP™ - Robe Ethernet Access Portal

The Robe Ethernet Access Portal allows to access internal data from a networked fixture, viewed as a web page, addressable via the fixtures network IP.

Epass™

Robe lighting’s Epass™ provides Ethernet in/out connections with a pass-through switch that sustains Ethernet integrity when the fixture has no power to automatically maintain network connectivity.

EMS™ - Electronic Motion Stabiliser

The Robe Electronic Motion Stabiliser is a technology for exact Pan and Tilt movements and reduces vibrations from audio outputs, truss movement and sprung or suspended floors.

airLOC™

Our AirLOC™ (Less Optical Cleaning) technology greatly reduces the level of airborne particles drawn over the optical elements.

Robe NFC controller and app

The Robe COM application is an app based on NFC (Near Field Communication). It can be either used to access to fixture’s settings of our NFC-based navigation display systems as well as reading out data of our TE™ Transferable Engines.

POLAR+™

Outdoor fixtures need to operate in extreme cold. Therefore, Robe iSeries™ fixtures contain an innovative POLAR+™ technology - a special standby mode with low power consumption, in which the fixture's sensors and communications channels continue to function.

RAINS™ – Robe Automatic Ingress Protection System

The highly advanced patented RAINS™ (Robe Automatic Ingress Protection System) technology not only prevents ingress. It actively manages a fixture's internal microclimate removing internal moisture build-up caused by constant heating and cooling to provide maximum protection for electronics, revolutionising how outdoor fixtures are managed and protected.
