ROBE - iTetra2 IP65

Once again, proving that the spider family are not afraid of the rain, the iTETRA2 is totally happy to splash around! The spectacular iTETRA2 linear bar has joined the Robe iSERIES! The IP65-rated iTETRA2 retains all the qualities and features of its highly successful indoor brother, adding Robe’s groundbreaking, self-managing, low-maintenance ingress protection technology, allowing outdoor use of this classic fixture by removing the threat of rain, dust, humidity, smoke or haze damage, even in the harshest conditions.

With identical DMX map, features and performance to TETRA2, the outdoor iTETRA2 can be used without having to learn a new fixture! The ingenious ingress protection system is specifically designed to allow standard maintenance and preparation procedures without any additional tools, so maintenance work can be conducted on-site.

The onboard patented RAINS (Robe Automatic Ingress Neutralization System) manages humidity, temperature and pressure control. The active monitoring system automatically removes any moisture detected within the fixture, providing constant monitoring to ensure peak performance.

Outdoor fixtures need to operate in extreme cold. iTETRA2 contains an innovative POLAR+ technology, a special standby mode with low power consumption, in which the fixture ´s sensors and communications channels remain active. When activated, POLAR+ automatically maintains an internal temperature level, giving instant operability down to minus 50 degrees centigrade!

iTETRA runs an ingenious Self Pressure Test to check internal pressure. This self-test, taking less than 3 minutes, provides an error message if gaskets or covers were not replaced correctly or locking screws tightened, ensuring maximum protection. Their lightweight aluminium alloy structure, provide a dust-free environment for the optics. This eliminates the need for frequent cleaning, routine maintenance, and UV damage to plastic parts. By including NFC (Near-Field Communication) technology, you can access setup, diagnostic and performance features, even without power, directly from your mobile device using the Robe Com app.

With the identical ultra-tight 4° beam from each of the 18 pixels of the original indoor TETRA2, the iTETRA2 produces a bright, defined "sheet" of light, desired by Lighting Designers.

Seamless curtains of light can be constructed using several fixtures as the detailed design allows iTETRA2 to be placed end to end on stage or truss, maintaining equal spacing between pixels. With the addition of two exclusive Robe patented MCFE Multi-Coloured Flower Effects, the pixel-driven iTETRA2 sets itself apart from others by projecting charismatic in-air animations.

Their homogenised beams, together with the smooth 11:1 zoom, provide; a wash out to 45°, a footlight, a wall graze or dynamic in-air effects with fast-paced sweeping movements. With our latest L3 (Low Light Linearity) dimming system for an imperceptible fade to black, the 18-bit control provides ultra-smooth colour mixing across the full-colour spectrum. Removing the need for distracting pre-use tilt calibration movement, the patented MAPS (Motionless Absolute Positioning System) allows the fixture to fully calibrate while remaining static - very useful when located within confined spaces.

An embedded Ethernet switch and a wide range of protocols (sACN, Art-Net or Kling-Net) allow a quick network installation and ease of control from media servers, DMX or the internal effects engine. Our REAP (Robe Ethernet Access Portal) allows access to fixture information and diagnostics over Ethernet Networks. Perfect for installations requiring remote centralised monitoring of fixture performance.
