Product Description
Altman EC-1 Econo Cyc Fixture
The EconoCyc is a lightweight, compact luminaire designed to provide an even wash of light on cycloramas and backdrops. This lighting instrument can also be used as a multi-purpose flood/fill light for stage and studio lighting applications. The EconoCyc has been designed and engineered with a number of innovative details and features that enhance its versatility, efficiency, and performance. Each compartment has a state of the art, highly polished and peened reflector. Another feature is the adjustable lampholders which allows the luminaire to accept T-3 to T-8 lamps of three different lengths: 4¹¹⁄₁₆″ (119 mm), 5⁵⁄₈″ (143 mm), and 6⁹⁄₁₆″ (167 mm).
The housing has a rugged slide bracket which allows multiple units to be safely locked together, including the Focusing Cyc (Altman catalog number FC-1) and others. The optional non-skid feet are height-adjustable and eliminate the need for floor trunnions for most ground row applications. A wide selection of yokes and other hanging hardware is also available to accommodate virtually all overhead mounting configurations.
The super-thin safety screen is specially designed to allow maximum light output, and is readily removable for easy access to the lamp for quick, effortless installation and replacement. The filter frame is hinged and removable without the use of tools. An optional accessory for the EconoCyc is a unique clip that safely secures stripped glass color frames. With a wide range of non-proprietary lamps of varying wattages, lengths, and widths to choose from, the extremely versatile EconoCyc can easily replace a multitude of standard luminaires.
