Aputure Storm XT52 Overview
Designed for large-scale film and television productions, the STORM XT52 Point-Source Full-White LED Monolight from Aputure fixture offers 5200W of high-output white CCT from 2500 to 10,000K. It features a BLAIR chipset for exceptional accuracy, advanced connectivity options, and a rugged IP65 dust- and weather-resistant construction that withstands demanding capture environments. Its electronic mount is compatible with Aputure's innovative electronic modifiers that provide enhanced optimization and motorized control. This XT52 fixture version comes with a bare ends cable.
Chipset and Color Accuracy
In addition to a 5200W output that rivals industry-standard 6000W HMIs, the XT52 light is equipped with a powerful BLAIR (blue, lime, amber, indigo, and red) chipset that delivers exceptionally accurate color reproduction across its tunable CCT range of 2500 to 10,000K. It offers a CRI and TLCI of >96 and SSI of daylight and tungsten at 86 and 87, respectively. Its advanced white-point control offers ±G 100% ASC MITC range green-magenta color correction, for seamless integration in mixed-lighting environments. The XT52 outputs up to 103,500 lux at a distance of 3 meters using its included 35° reflector.
Expanded Mounting
The XT52's innovative electronic Aputure mount is designed for heavy-duty modifiers, including the optional CF14 Motorized Fresnel, guaranteeing stability, durability, and optimized color accuracy while supporting motorized focus control. Take full advantage of this mount's versatility by swapping out the included 35° reflector with one of Aputure's optional 20 and 50° reflectors.
Available Power Options
Depending on your location, the XT52 can be powered from household circuits, but please note that it requires 180V or greater to operate at full power. This XT52 fixture comes with a bare ends cable, letting users customize their plug solutions. It includes a 7.5 meter long head cable and offers head-cable daisy chaining at lengths up to 45 meter.
Professional Connectivity
Designed with professionals in mind, the XT52 offers advanced connectivity options, including Sidus Link app control, LumenRadio CRMX, Art-Net and sACN via etherCON, and 16-bit DMX512 input and output. These features seamlessly integrate the fixture into existing lighting workflows, providing lighting technicians and programmers with complete control over its operation.
Advanced Liquid Cooling Technology
To effectively manage heat dissipation and maximize light output, the XT52 incorporates advanced liquid cooling technology. This innovative design guarantees that users can access the full potential of the fixture's light output while maintaining optimal performance.
Flexible Flicker-Free Performance
The flexible XT52 fixture supports both CIE daylight or Blackbody white light standards and uses a HyperDrive LED driver to ensure flicker-free performance at all color temperatures above 20% output.
Additional Features
The XT52's design features a stackable lamp head and a removable manual yoke, streamlining your storage options. Also featured is a modular, service-friendly sub-assembly with circuit board-level monitoring and fault error codes.
