GLP expands its impression X5 Series

The impression X5 Dot Wash from GLP is described as the most compact fixture in the line to date, bringing the colour quality, consistency and system logic of the X5 platform to an ultra-compact form factor barely larger than a classic MR16 “Birdie”. It has been designed for applications where powerful, high-quality light is required in the tightest of spaces.

At its core is a 40W RGBL LED engine drawn from the X5 family, operating at up to 20W and delivering a light output of up to 550 lumens at 6,500K. Weighing 580g, the fixture is light and versatile, and, thanks to its fanless design, reportedly operates in complete silence. The combination of an RGBL LED engine and GLP’s iQ.Gamut colour algorithm deliver “precise colour mixing, consistent white points and finely graded pastel tones”. 16-bit colour control further enables smooth transitions and clean dimming curves.

By rotating the front lens, the X5 Dot Wash’s beam angle can be adjusted manually from 16° to 68° without altering the physical dimensions of the unit. Meanwhile, the Colour Boost function gives the impression X5 Dot Wash a power management system that provides additional output when producing deep, saturated colours. This allows the fixture to achieve high intensity even in bold hues. The X5 Dot Wash carries an IP65 rating; a supply voltage of 24–48V DC is sufficient – no dedicated external drivers or elaborate additional hardware are required. Control is available via DMX/RDM or wirelessly through GLP iQ.Mesh.
