Delivering unmatched performance
from any of the Pacific range, the MSR power
system comprises the universal electronic flicker-free
power supply and a choice of lamp modules with integral
ignitor and optional extension cable from head to
power supply (5m/16 1/2ft).
This 5600K light source in the Pacific, fitted with
MSR Hot Restrike module and dowser, delivers high light
output for entertainment lighting. The standard 575W
MSR/2 and 575W MSD lamps provide the solution for accurate
long throw architectural lighting applications.
In short, when combined with a 575W MSR light source
the Pacific offers lighting designers a powerful tool
providing variable beam angles, beam shaping, low glare,
projection and movement.
The power of the Pacific MSR allows projection
over distances previously unobtainable with a standard
profile.
The Pacific MSR can be ordered as a complete luminaire
or the lamp module can be ordered separately and fitted
to existing Pacific fittings.
Important note: The electronic power supply
for Pacific MSRs must NOT be powered from a dimmer
output, a non-dim circuit is required.
Should you wish to dim your MSR luminaires
you will need the Selecon
Pacific Dowser which has
been specifically designed for this purpose.

Power Supply
The electronic power supply complies with EN60922
A1:1992 and is TUV certified.
UL listing: the EVG5 (part #: 321841000) and the ignitor
HZG5-25 (part #: 320581000) are tested in accordance
with UL1950 clause 2.9 and CSA22.2-950.
Ignitor distances: though the power supply can be mounted
far away from the lamp, the ignitor must be within
2m/6ft of the lamp.
The power supply box does not necessarily have to be
mounted on a luminaire and in the case of a weather-proof
enclosure it is recommended that the box be installed
in the coolest part of the enclosure.
Ideally the internal components
of the electronic power supply box should remain below
80°C.
Colour Media
The use of standard colour media in the Pacific MSR is
not possible. The heat of the beam is cool but the variable
focus of the zoomspot may result in a secondary focal
point at the colour runners. It is the focus point of
the intense energy produced by the 575 watt MSR lamp
that prohibits the use of standard colour media at certain
beam angles, coloured or dichroic glass filters are recommended.
When used with the Pacific Dowser accessory acceptable
life of plastic colour filters is achieved.
Further technical information, physical
and photometric data and order codes are detailed
on the Pacific MSR Specification Sheets.

FISHER & EISENHAUER
SELECT SELECON MSRS AND DOWSERS
“Chita Rivera: The Dancer’s
Life” opened on Broadway
on the 11th December, 2005; a musical
stage show honoring a woman who throughout
her 50-year career has been described
as a “true Broadway star” and “a
force of nature”.
This magical tour offers its audience
a rare look into a time when great
musical numbers in the theater were
born, as related and performed by the
woman for whom they were created celebrating
some of her most stunning and legendary
Broadway performances – from West
Side Story to Chicago to Kiss
of the Spider Woman.
Paramount in any lighting design that
involves dance is the side / boom lighting
that enhances the audience’s
ability to see the intricate steps
and body movements that a dancer is
performing. For Chita and her cast
of ten this challenge fell into the
hands of renowned lighting designers
Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer who
recognised that the small Selecon wide-angle
Pacific zoomspots were the solution
to delivering the best high output
with the control required for low sidelight.
"The (7) Pacific 23º-50º MSR
575-HR Zoomspots fitted with Pacific
Dowsers worked perfectly as low sidelights
for Chita Rivera, The Dancer’s
Life, currently performing at the Gerald
Schoenfeld Theatre on Broadway.
A unit located in each wing provided
the modelling light for the dancer’s
legs and torso which is so valuable
to dance. It gave us the power of an
automated fixture, without the bulk,
allowing us to mount it close to the
floor. The wide zoom range allowed
us to tailor the beam spread for each
shot.
It made a great contribution to our show."

When
the Royal National Theatre, London wanted
to project their name on their iconic South
Bank home they turned to the Selecon Pacific
range using the 575W MSR light source.
Utilising a Pacific 23-50 MSR Zoomspot
the gobo projection is precise and powerful
enough to cut through the washlights on the
south side of the theatre in dramatic style.
Housed in a simple custom enclosure this
project joins the many others around the
world where Pacific luminaires are used for
external lighting projects.
These include the over 100 Pacifics lighting
up major landmarks in Paris, several of the
bridges across the Seine and the Lion de Belfort
statue; the Hong Kong city light up and many
others demonstrating the superior optical performance,
versatility and low cost of ownership intrinsic
to the design of the Pacific range.
