Unmatched in performance, these new 300 Watt
models are superior to all competitors in the
same power category for brightness, graphic
variety, optical system and performance, often
also allowing them to be used professionally in
place of larger sized projectors.
They are of limited size and weight that
make their installation and use ideal in highly
professional environments, with considerable
investment and operating economy.
All these features make the “Alpha 300” excellent
for every sector – from the Theatre to Television,
from Corporate Events to Clubs, for large as for
small Rental Companies.

ALPHA BEAM 300
An exclusive MOVING LIGHT BEAM
The only 300W Moving Light Beam on
the market able to release an Aircraft
Landing light effect from a powerful,
light and compact moving body. Like an
ACL Par64, the Alpha Beam 300 can be
used in “live” environments, especially
for “long throw” use, and in addition to
the former offering a series of graphic
and movement capacities impossible to
imagine so far.

Unequalled BRIGHTNESS
The new special Clay Paky optical
group, with a 300W lamp and an unique
elliptical reflector with a smooth surface
is three times brighter than an ordinary
1200W wash projector, generating an
extraordinary “tunnel of light” with a
natural beam of 8°.
Complete GRAPHICS
The opening and graphics of the
“tunnel of light” can be decided at will
with the 8 fixed gobos available as
standard (4 standard gobos + 4 beam
angle reduction gobos) and easily
interchangeable.
Patented FROST
The innovative frost system (Patent
Pending), based on the inclusion of two
high quality diffusion filters, allows the
linear passage from a sharp beam to
a soft one with two angles of diffusion,
typical of a regular wash, with the obvious
advantages of the two projection modes.
Page 5
ALPHA BEAM 300
Presented exclusively by Clay Paky, the Alpha Beam 300 produces a superconcentrated parallel light beam, for a
very similar use to that of an ACL Par64, always used in big Rock'n'Roll shows, but with decidedly superior features.
Innovative and complete, compact, service friendly, easy to install and to use, the Alpha Beam 300 is the ideal Moving
Light Beam for “live” professional use, especially “long throw” to penetrate the background brightness of stage washes
or LED systems with Aircraft Landing light effects that have never been seen as yet.
ALPHA BEAM 300
The COLOR makes the difference
CMY + Color Wheel (8+1) that allow
the light beam to be colored at will,
exceeding the traditional concentration
of the Par64, which requires the manual
insertion of gelatine filters.
2 CTO filters (3200K and 2500K),
1 CTB filter and a selection of new colors
particularly demanded for professional
use: Orange, Aquamarine, deep Green,
deep Blue (Night Light effect) and
saturated Red. The color wheel uses a
new snap-shot system that increases the
color changing speed.
Standard ELECTRONIC BALLAST
The first product in its category with a
standard electronic ballast that means
total absence of flickering, a universal
power supply selectable automatically
and, naturally, the product weighs less.
Wide and fast PAN and TILT
movements
Unlike an ACL Par64, with a 540° PAN
and a 250° TILT, the Alpha Beam 300
superconcentrated light beam can be
pointed and moved with ease onto
the stage, the audience, the ceiling or
towards the sky for open-air events.
Three-phase motors have been
introduced in the Alpha Beam 300 to
allow faster Pan (2.75sec/540°) and Tilt
(1.65sec/250°) movements.

Unequalled BRIGHTNESS
About twice as bright as the best-known
competitors in its category.
Optical system based on the use of
a 300W lamp and a dichroic elliptical

The widest EFFECT SECTION
CMY, 8+1 Color Wheel, 15 gobos,
rotating Prism, Frost with adjustable
projection angle, 0-100% Dimmer
on dedicated channel, high speed
mechanical iris, stop/strobe. It is the only
compact projector on the market to have
all the effects of the large size projectors.
A complete COLOR SYSTEM
It’s among the few “300s” with a complete
color system: CMY and 8+1 Color Wheel,
which includes 2 CTO filters (3200K and
2500K) and a selection of new colors,
particularly demanded for professional
use: Half Minus Green,Orange,
Aquamarine, deep Green, deep Blue
(Night Light effect) and saturated Red.
The color wheel uses a new snap-shot
system that increases the color changing

ALPHA SPOT HPE 300
Compact, light, very bright and silent, with superior graphic and optical
performances, it is the most complete spotlight in its category.
The ideal tool for every professional sector, that needs to combine the
advantages of small units with the performance of the large ones.
ALPHA SPOT HPE 300
15 high quality GOBOS
7 rotating gobos in high quality glass +
8 fixed gobos can be overlapped for an
extraordinary Morphing effect. All gobos
are easily interchangeable.
Standard ELECTRONIC BALLAST
The first product in its category with
standard electronic ballast that means
the total absence of flickering, a universal
power supply selectable automatically
and, naturally, the product weighs less.
The first “300” with LINEAR ZOOM
A wide Linear Zoom, that provide precise
control at any beam opening. A special
lens on a dedicated channel allows
the useful passage, at will, from “hot
spot” to “uniform field” with the obvious
advantages of the two projection modes.
SILENCE at the top of its category
Noise produced is less than 40 dB,
thanks to the use of an innovative internal
ventilation system and of an innovative
electronic section that restores a further
reduction of unwanted noise in the
projector PAN-TILT motors.

ALPHA RANGE | COMMON FEATURES
EXTRAORDINARY BRIGHTNESS
One of the most distinctive pluses of the ALPHA 300 series is certainly the extraordinary brightness, decidedly
superior to that of the competitors in the same category. The Alpha Spot HPE 300 and the Alpha Spot 300 are
about twice as bright as the most well-known competitors. The Alpha Wash 300 exceeds them by about 20%.
The Alpha Beam 300 is three times brighter than an ordinary 1200W Wash projector.
THE MOST SILENT FIXTURES IN THE WORLD
Clay Paky have always paid great attention to looking after this aspect: this is why its fixtures are considered
among the most silent ones in the world.
Clay Paky have made a further step forward with the Alpha 300 series, offering projectors that are much more
silent than moving lights of equal power (noise less than 40 dB).
This thanks to the use of an innovative internal ventilation system, which reduces operating noise to the
minimum, and of an innovative electronic section that restores a further reduction of unwanted noise in the
projector PAN-TILT motors.
COMMON FEATURES
19
Page 20
UNIVERSAL USE
Matchless in brightness and performance, the “Alpha 300” models have reduced size and weight that make
their installation and use ideal in highly professional environments, from the Theatre to Television, from
Corporate Events to Rock Concerts, for both large and small Rental Companies and, naturally, also in discos
and elite clubs, instead of projectors of larger size (575 W), with considerable investment and operation
savings.
ITALIAN STYLE DESIGN (Patent Pending)
The design of the Alpha 300 series derives from the research of Clay Paky’s R&D and reflects the typical
taste and creativity of Italian style. The Alpha 300s present a compact, light, ergonomic and handsome body
that blends into any situation. Each projector is conceived from a service-friendly perspective, with modular
construction that guarantees its maximum practicality in use and easy access inside for maintenance.
LONG-LIFE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
The long-life internal self-rechargeable battery allows complete set-up of the spot when it is not powered,
allowing the operator to set address and options when the fixture is unplugged and even in its flight case.
COMMON FEATURES

Page 21
FASTFIT 300W LAMP
The 300W FastFit lamp with fast fitting has recently been introduced onto the market by the
manufacturers and has gained great success thanks to its practicality of use.
The Alpha 300 series uses a MSR Gold 300 FastFit lamp from Philips, very easily accessible.
ELECTRONICS AND SOFTWARE
The advanced electronics and software of the Alpha 300 range provide a long series of very
useful functions: Preset macros, On/Off control of the lamp from the control unit, Function
reset controllable from the control unit, "Help", “Memo” and “Autotest” function from the menu,
Provision for Ethernet, Electronic check-up of each individual parameter, Monitoring of the
DMX level on each individual channel, Return information on the status of each sensor and
