Overview The P-6 is an RGBW LED luminaire with high output, designed for multiple applications, including applications where wireless oper- ation is essential. P-6 features: • Powerful all-in-one 475 W light fixture with 6 individually controllable segments, weighing around 12 kg.
Never carry the fixture by connected cables or wires; use the handle. Installing / rigging the P-6 The P-6 may be installed in any orientation and it might take up to 3 omega brackets per Omega bracket fixture. Always use omega brackets to rig the fixture and lock the bracket with the 1/4-turn fasteners.
