This 170cm (5' 7") diameter parabolic umbrella has 24 braces and shiny silver interior coating and features a precise front focusing device. Optimised for operation with Pulso G, Pulso Twin* and Pulso 8* lamp heads. Can also be used with the broncolor daylight
lamp head HMI F575* as well as (with restrictions) with the Primo lamp head.
The design of the Para 170 FB results in a very high light efficiency. It allows the
choice of directed light with high contrast to extremely soft light. In comparison to a
large area lamp the light stays constantly brilliant. Due to the calculated parabolic
shape of the umbrella, light fall off towards the edges is negligible.
In the apex of the umbrella, the crank handle allows a mechanism to open up and
tensions the umbrella completely, without effort. The aluminum rod with
continuous fine adjustment, and lamp support serve for focusing the light source, by
sliding the lamp head parallel to the optical axis. The focusing device is integrated
in the umbrella.
To stabilize the Para 170 FB also under unfavorable conditions, for example in the
open air, eight fastening-eyelets are integrated on the outer side. With these, the
umbrella can be suspended from the ceiling or secured on the ground by means of
tension ropes. It can be shut like a normal umbrella and folded lengthways like a
pocket umbrella for transport and storage.
