this User Manual will only apply to properly trained, certified technicians. Do not
!
open the housing or attempt any repairs.
All applicable local codes and regulations apply to proper installation of this
product.
Personal Safety
• Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while the product is on.
• Always disconnect the product from the power source before cleaning or replacing the fuse.
• Always connect the product to a grounded circuit to avoid the risk of electrocution.
• Do not touch the product’s housing when operating because it may be very hot.
Mounting and Rigging
• This product is for indoor use only! To prevent risk of fire or shock, do not expose this product to
rain or moisture. (IP20)
• CAUTION: When transferring product from extreme temperature environments, (e.g., cold truck to warm,
humid ballroom) condensation may form on the internal electronics of the product. To avoid causing a
failure, allow product to fully acclimate to the surrounding environment before connecting it to power.
• Mount this product in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20 in (50 cm) from adjacent
surfaces.
• Make sure there are no flammable materials close to the product when operating.
• When hanging this product, always secure to a fastening device using a safety cable.
• Use caution when loosening the barrel rotation knobs. If these knobs become too loose, the barrel
assembly may inadvertently separate from the light engine.
Power and Wiring
• Always make sure you are connecting the product to the proper voltage in accordance with the
specifications in this manual or on the product’s specification label.
• Never connect the product to a dimmer pack or rheostat.
• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely
disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

Operation
• Do not operate this product if there is damage on the housing, lenses, or cables. Have the damaged
parts replaced by an authorized technician at once.
• Do not cover the ventilation slots when operating to avoid internal overheating.
• The maximum ambient temperature is 1 13 °F (45 °C). Do not operate the product at higher temperatures.
• In the event of a serious operation problem, stop using this product immediately!
If your Chauvet product requires service, contact Chauvet Technical Support.
Expected LED Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, primarily because of heat. LEDs that are arranged in
clusters experience higher operating temperatures than single LEDs. For this reason, operating clustered
LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this
lifespan is 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operating temperature by
improving the ventilation around the product, thus reducing the ambient temperature. In addition, limiting
the overall projection intensity may extend the LEDs’ lifespan.

INTRODUCTION
2. INTRODUCTION
Description
The Ovation E-160WW delivers an excellent white light with a warm color temperature and a beautiful flat
field. It also features standard beam shaping shutters, a gobo/effect slot and lens barrels that are
interchangeable with other popular ERS fixtures. Selectable dimming curves ensure smooth fading cues
that intermix well with the output of conventional theatre ellipsoidals.
Features
• Warm white LED ERS-style lighting product
• Operating modes:
• 1-channel: dimmer control
• 2-channel: dimmer and fine dimmer control
• 3-channel: dimmer, fine dimmer, and strobe control
• 6-channel: dimmer, fine dimmer, strobe control, auto programs, auto speed, and dimmer mode
• Warm white ERS style fixture with output similar to a tungsten 575 W source
• Draws less than 100 W of power, a true electrical bill reducing fixture!
• Ultra smooth 16-bit dimming, and 8-bit dimming curves to complement any lighting scheme.
• Flat, even field of light for superior gobo projection
• RDM (Remote Device Management) for added flexibility
• Adjustable PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to avoid flickering on camera
• Virtually silent operation for use in studio and theatre applications
