Specifications

The QUADX is a powerful, four-channel pack
with precise power adjustments and
dependable repeatability. With a maximum
power of 3000Ws and a mini mum of just
31Ws with one head - a power range of 7.6
f/stops! The QUADX offers a wide range of
lighting control options with precision
adjustments and a user-friendly control panel
that lets you know exactly how much power
is coming out of each head, the flash duration
and a host of other vital statistics, all at the
press of a button.
PPrreecciissiioonn PPoowweerr CCoonnttrrooll..
The QUADX lets you control the flash output
of each head in
1
⁄10-stop increments and offers
repeatable output flash after flash, which is
ideal for multi-shot camera backs.

The power-management system of the
QUADX monitors and adjusts capacitor
performance to ensure total output accuracy
and consistency, retaining a colour
temperature of 5800K, ±2%.
Capacitor switching delivers greater colour
consistency over the entire power range as
well as providing flash durations as short as
1/1430 sec. with a single head at full power
(1/7100 sec. with two heads at 250Ws).

The advanced charging system is extremely
efficient and extends the life of the
capacitors. The automatic mode provides a
slow initial charge and then, by monitoring
the temperature of the capacitors, offers the
fastest possible recharging times.
QQUUAADDXX FFeeaattuurreess
 Four flash head outlets with power divided
into two independent channels.
 Power output from 3000Ws to 31Ws
with one head (16Ws with two heads!)
 Colour consistency varies less than ±200K
when operating between 250 & 3000Ws.
 An advanced charging system operates
most efficiently and extends capacitor life.
 Flash durations faster than 1/7000 sec. are
made possible with the use of triple
electrode flash tubes in the QUADX head.
Features
 Auto-bracketing is easy to set up with
three-intervals from
1
⁄10 to
9
⁄10-stop.
 An optional IR Remote Control System
allows photographers to control all
functions up to 30 feet away.
 Variable-speed cooling fans respond to
internal temperature changes to ensure
peak performance.

TThhee CCoonnttrrooll PPaanneell
The control panel of the QUADX is simple
and intuitive to use.
Power is divided into two independent
channels, A and B, one having a maximum
power of 2000Ws (A), the other (B) 1000Ws.
Each channel controls two flash-head outlets
in
1
⁄10-stop increments.
When more than one head is used in the
same channel, the power of that channel will
be divided equally between those two heads.
When a head is connected to Channel B, the
pack automatically becomes asymmetric.
Once lighting ratio or contrast levels are set,
power level adjustments can be made to
achieve perfect exposures.
