ERA 700 Peformance IP

The Martin ERA 700 Performance IP is a 680 W LED-based moving head profile delivering 26,000 lumens with CMYC color mixing, full curtain framing, dual gobo wheels, IP65+ weatherproofing, and C5M marine-grade protection — purpose-built for permanent outdoor entertainment.

From the Manufacturer

The ERA 700 Performance IP is Martin Professional's flagship outdoor profile, specially designed for permanent outdoor entertainment use in even the most demanding environments. Its 680 W LED engine produces 26,000 lumens of output through a 1:8 zoom system, providing a comprehensive toolkit for lighting design: CMYC color mixing, a full curtain framing system, dual gobo wheels, dual prisms, dual frost, animation wheel, and a wide range of new gobo designs covering rock and roll, theatrical, and architainment applications.

Standing at just 759 mm tall and weighing under 40 kg, the ERA 700 Performance IP is compact and lightweight for its class. Its IP65+ rating — elevated to IP66 with the included anti-tamper box installed — eliminates the need for outdoor protection domes. C5M marine-grade salinity protection and an active humidity control system ensure consistent performance from -20°C to +40°C in the harshest environments, including coastal and marine installations. The anti-tamper box also prevents unauthorized removal of power and data connections in public settings. Available in black and white finishes for seamless integration into a wide range of outdoor installations, including theme parks, cruise ships, and architainment venues.
