ColorBlast 12  

ColorBlast 6

Color-changing LED wash light 

for use both indoors and outdoors

Outdoor Rated

Fully sealed for maximum 

fixture life and IP66 rated 

for outdoor applications, 

ColorBlast fixtures meet 

or exceed specifications 

for use in wet locations. 

Rugged, die-cast aluminum 

housing is available in white 

or black powder-coated 

finish. 

•  Two beam patterns — A frosted glass lens (22° 

beam angle for ColorBlast 12, 21° for ColorBlast 

6) produces a soft-edge beam, while a clear glass 

lens (10° beam angle) affords extended light 

projection. 

•  Flexible mounting options — The versatile fixture 

canopy base can be mounted to a junction box or 

directly to a wall, ceiling, or floor. A liquid-tight 

cable fitting seals the canopy opening for use in 

damp or wet environments.

•  Versatile light positioning — The locking canopy 

base offers friction-free rotation of up to 350°, 

and 110° fixture tilting lets installers quickly aim 

the fixture without special tools. 

•  Industry-leading controls — ColorBlast fixtures 

work seamlessly with the complete line of Philips 

controllers, including Light System Manager, 

iPlayer

®

 3, and ColorDial™ Pro, as well as third-

party controllers.

•  Additional options for controlling and dispersing 

light — Designed specifically for the family of 

ColorBlast fixtures by City Theatrical, Inc., 

accessories include top hats, half top hats, egg 

crate louvers, barndoors, and horizontal and 

vertical spread lenses.  

High-performance ColorBlast LED fixtures generate rich, saturated colors and color-changing effects for a 

range of wall-washing and floodlighting applications. Designed with the needs of lighting designers, architects, 

and retail window directors in mind, ColorBlast can be used in both indoor and outdoor installations. 

ColorBlast 12 high-intensity LEDs produce superior light output of over 1200 lumens, while ColorBlast 6 

produces a lower intensity output in a compact, low-profile housing. Both versions offer full pan and tilt 

rotation, flexible mounting options, two beam angles, and superior control through Philips or third-party 

DMX controllers.
