beamZ Pro Nereid700 Outdoor BSWF - 700W IP65 Hybrid Moving Head for Outdoor Use with Framing

The beamZ Pro Nereid700 Outdoor BSWF is a high-end hybrid moving head, specifically designed for demanding outdoor lighting applications . Equipped with a 700W white LED module , it delivers exceptional brightness, ideal for concerts, festivals, projection mapping, and medium- to long-distance architectural lighting . Its BSWF (Beam, Spot, Wash & Framing) design allows a single projector to be used as a focused beam, a rim spotlight, a soft wash, or a bladed rim, reducing the number of fixtures required for a project.

The LED engine operates at a color temperature of around 6500K , with a CRI of 69 in standard mode and 90 when using the CRI correction filter . This allows for very sharp whites or much more natural color reproduction, depending on the requirements. Through the linear CTO system, the color temperature can be continuously adjusted from approximately 2700K to 6500K , covering everything from warm, tungsten-like tones to cool whites for outdoor use. Some product datasheets list 7600K as a reference value, but the official beamZ specifications place the module at 6500K with dedicated CRI correction.

Its optics incorporate a motorized zoom from 5° to 50° , allowing you to switch from a very narrow and powerful beam to a wide wash for illuminating stages, facades, and structures. The motorized focus , linear iris adjustment , and framing system with 4 cutting blades (module rotation from 60° to 120°) offer extremely precise beam control, ideal for cutting out surfaces, avoiding glare, and defining complex shapes. All of this is complemented by a static gobo wheel (9 + open) , an indexable rotating gobo wheel (7 + open) , and a 360° animation wheel capable of generating dynamic effects such as "water wave" and "flame."

The color section consists of a color wheel with 7 colors plus open (with half-color positions and linear adjustments), a complete independent CMY color mixing system with macros, and the aforementioned linear CTO , allowing for both smooth changes and fast transitions, as well as more creative color effects. It also incorporates two frost filters (light and medium) to transform the beam into a homogeneous wash, and a dual prism system (a 4-sided circular prism wheel and a 4-sided linear prism, with bidirectional rotation) to multiply the beam and generate volumetric effects, according to official specifications, which are not overlapping.

In terms of movement, the Nereid700 Outdoor offers 540° pan and 360° tilt with 16-bit control and endless pan/tilt , allowing for wide sweeps, circles, and continuous effects without mechanical limitations. The high-speed strobe (0–20 Hz), along with the smooth dimmer and precise position control, ensures clean transitions, fast chases, and impactful effects in any type of production.

Designed for demanding environments, the Nereid700 Outdoor features a sealed chassis with IP65 certification , protecting the electronics and optics from dust, rain, and splashes. The intelligent cooling system adapts ventilation to the thermal load, optimizing performance and durability. For connectivity, it offers 3-pin and 5-pin DMX inputs and outputs , as well as P-Con TR1 in/out power connectors for linking multiple units. It is compatible with DMX512, RDM, automatic modes, and Master/Slave , facilitating its integration into both permanent installations and touring setups.

Despite its power and robustness, its dimensions remain relatively compact ( 390 x 310 x 788 mm ) with an approximate weight of 36.5 kg according to official data (some commercial specifications round up to 39 kg including packaging). It comes with a mounting bracket and power cable , allowing for quick installation on trusses, lifting towers, or fixed outdoor structures. Overall, the beamZ Pro Nereid700 Outdoor BSWF presents itself as a high-impact professional lighting solution for rental companies, integrators, festival promoters, and large-scale architectural projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really suitable for year-round outdoor use?
Yes. The Nereid700 Outdoor is IP65 certified , which means it offers a high degree of protection against dust and rain. Even so, it is recommended to follow good installation practices (drainage, secure fixings, checking anchor points) and preventive maintenance, especially in high-humidity or saline environments.

How is the color reproduction?
The LED module operates at around 6500K with a CRI of 69 in standard mode, and achieves a CRI of 90 using the CRI correction filter . This, combined with CMY mixing and linear CTO , allows for adjusting both the white hue and color saturation to meet aesthetic and technical requirements (e.g., for cameras or broadcasting).

Can the two prisms be combined at the same time?
No. According to the official specifications, the Nereid700 Outdoor incorporates two prism wheels (4-faceted circular and 4-faceted linear) with bidirectional rotation , but they are used independently, without overlapping each other.

What protocols and control modes does it support?
The unit supports DMX512 (via 3 and 5 pin XLR connectors), Automatic modes with internal programs, Master/Slave for synchronizing multiple units, and RDM for remote monitoring and parameter adjustment from compatible consoles.

What exactly does the product include when you receive it?
The Nereid700 Outdoor comes standard with a mounting bracket for hanging or fixing and a power cable with a P-Con TR1 connector . Other accessories (clamps, DMX cables, flight cases, etc.) are purchased separately depending on the installation requirements.

Optical and color configuration

The combination of 5–50° zoom , static and rotating gobos, animation wheel, dual prism, CMY, CTO, and frost makes the Nereid700 Outdoor a highly versatile tool for lighting designers. It allows you to create everything from sharp, clipped beams to textured projections on surfaces, as well as large color washes with precise mixing and fine white balance control—all with a single unit.

Robustness and maintenance

Its IP65-rated sealed chassis and intelligent cooling system contribute to a long service life, even in permanent outdoor installations. Protected electronics, weatherproof connections, and the use of a high-efficiency LED reduce maintenance costs and the number of interventions required over time, compared to discharge lamps or non-IP65 rated equipment.
