About this product
Argo Media (AM) is Insight Lighting's exterior linear direct-view color-changing luminaire for media façade and dynamic architectural work, the color-changing sibling of the white-light Argo Pro grazer. A co-extruded UL94 5VA thermoplastic housing and lens in matte black carry Insight's Nitro Color LED engine in a 130° direct-view distribution, offered in RGB-Amber, RGB (2200K, 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K white points) and RG-Royal Blue (3000K/4000K) configurations, with a pixel-addressable Argo Media Dot variant extending the family into finer-resolution media. Bars come in 12" and 48" nominal lengths (1.25 lb and 3.70 lb) at 5.0 W/ft; per the performance table a 12" fixture delivers 106.4 lumens at the RGY30 white balance point (21.9 LM/W, 26.4 peak candela) up to 193.0 lumens with all channels full, with individual channel outputs of 59.2 (red), 132.8 (green), and 27.6 (royal blue) lumens. Control is DMX + RDM at system, fixture, or 6" resolution; power is a 120VAC or 277VAC integral driver, or Insight's Marathon 380VDC remote supply that drives continuous runs up to 192 feet on a single feed (48 fixtures max per run). Fixed and adjustable mounts, an advanced plug-and-play cable system, and an optional ProSurge 20 kA power-and-data box handle installation. Rated IP67, IK07, and 3G vibration to ANSI C136.31, ETL listed, RoHS, and made in the USA, with 75,000-hour lumen maintenance and a 5-year limited warranty. CRI reflects Insight's Nitro Color white channel (not printed on the color-changing spec sheet).
