The Color Kinetics Accent MX Powercore gen3 (Model # 123-000181-00) is a 2-foot RGB LED direct-view linear luminaire designed to create vibrant color displays and dynamic color-changing effects. Perfect for large-scale architectural, retail, and entertainment applications, this fixture features a translucent lens, providing a 120° x 225° beam angle that ensures exceptional viewing angles and uniform color mixing. The Accent MX Powercore gen3 offers unparalleled precision in color control, ideal for applications that require accurate video and graphic displays. This luminaire combines the power and efficiency of Powercore technology with a durable, outdoor-rated, road-ready aluminum housing, making it both cost-effective and reliable for demanding environments.
One of the standout features of this luminaire is the integration of Color Kinetics’ patented Powercore technology. Powercore enables the rapid, efficient, and precise control of power output to the luminaire directly from line voltage. By using the Color Kinetics Data Enabler Pro, both power and control data are merged and delivered to the luminaire over a single standard cable, significantly simplifying installation and reducing system costs. The system supports both DMX and Ethernet control, offering versatile installation options while ensuring reliable performance. Ethernet input from the Data Enabler Pro also allows for long control runs that are not limited by DMX data and addressing constraints.
Designed for precise resolution control, the Accent MX Powercore gen3 can be addressed and controlled in increments as small as 30 mm (1.2 inches) or up to 1214 mm (4 feet), offering a high degree of flexibility for creating detailed lighting effects across large installations. The 2-foot length of this model makes it ideal for connecting multiple units to form long, continuous ribbons of light, perfect for dynamic architectural displays, retail installations, or entertainment venues. The over-molded, end-to-end locking connectors provide both power and data, with the ability to make 180° turns for flexible layout configurations. Jumper cables in various lengths allow additional spacing between luminaires to fit specific installation needs.
The Accent MX Powercore gen3 is built to withstand tough conditions, with an IP66 rating ensuring that the luminaire is dust-tight and water-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use. The extruded aluminum housing is resistant to shock, vibration, and other forms of physical stress. Furthermore, the luminaire features a UV-protected polycarbonate lens that ensures longevity while providing even light diffusion. The operating temperature range of -40°F to 122°F and the storage range of -40°F to 176°F ensure reliable performance in extreme conditions. This luminaire is also compatible with Color Kinetics’ full range of controllers, including the iPlayer 3, iPlayer 4, Antumbra iColorKeypad, and ColorDial Pro, as well as third-party controllers for seamless integration into various systems.
