ARRI M90 EB MAX Set pairs the M-Series M90 open-face HMI PAR head with an EB MAX 6/9 electronic ballast for high-output daylight on film sets, broadcast studios and large live-event rigs. The lens-less MAX Technology facetted reflector delivers PAR-style punch without a spread-lens kit; beam size is tuned by focus only, travelling continuously from 15° to 49°. That range covers long-throw key light, hard backlight, or a broad wash for large cycs, greenscreens and architectural textures, while keeping the shadow edge clean and easy to cut.

The lamphead accepts single-ended metal-halide lamps at 9,000 W or 6,000 W on a GX38 base behind UV protection glass. ARRI specifies operation up to 40°C ambient with a max surface temperature of 200°C, and tolerable inclination up to 90° up or down. Cross-cooling and dual-side tilt locks keep heavy front accessories stable during steep angles on condors, truss, studio grids or follow rigs, and the head can run with 6,000 W lamps/ballasts while using existing 6 kW cabling ecosystems.

Photometrics with a 9,000 W lamp indicate the working envelope: at 10 m the fixture reaches 51,000 lux at 15°, 14,450 lux at 30°, and 7,590 lux at 49°, with beam diameters scaling from 2.7 m to 8.3 m. At 20 m it still delivers 12,750 lux at 15° for exterior “sun” backlight, long corridors, and wide establishing plates where consistent daylight color is mandatory across multiple cameras.

The included 15 m head-to-ballast cable is supported by ballast-side CCL (Compensation of Cable Losses) so lamp power stays consistent across long runs. Control and integration such as DMX plus AutoScan square-wave drive (up to 1000 Hz) target flicker-managed high-speed capture, motion-control passes and multi-camera TV setups. With IP23 weather resistance, the set fits exterior key/fill in light rain, sea spray and set atmospherics; follow ARRI’s stated safe distances of 10 m to the illuminated surface and 2 m around the luminaire.

M-Series M90 with MAX Technology “Punches above its weight!”
Like all M-Series lampheads, the M90 is equipped with MAX Technology, a unique, patented reflector technology that unifies the advantages of Fresnel and PAR fixtures. The unit is open-face and thus very bright; in fact the light output produced with a 9,000 W lamp comes close to the output of a 12 kW PAR fixture with lens. The unit is focusable from 15° up to 49° just by turning the focus knob, producing a remarkably even light field and a crisp, clear shadow. The elimination of spread lenses speeds up the workflow on set.

The M90 closes the gap between M40 and ARRIMAX 18/12. Furthermore, the MAX Technology reflector functions perfectly with 6,000 W and 9,000 W lamps assignable to their similar size.

Due to the superior housing and the state-of-the-art Cross-Cooling concept the M90 has a very compact design close to the dimensions of the ARRISUN 60. Together with the innovative electronic high speed ballast, EB MAX 6/9, this combination represents the state-of-the-art daylight system for high quality images at high frame rates. Both, ballast and M90 are equipped with a CCL module (Compensation of Cable Losses) enabling full power, which is maintained all the way to the lamp, even using very long cables. This ensures uniformly high light output independent from cable length.

The system of M90 lamphead and EB MAX 6/9 is highly efficient. When it comes to the dimensions it is comparable to a 6 kW PAR system, whereas the light output comes close to a traditional 12 kW PAR (with lens) - it punches above its weight! For outdoor use, the M90’s IP23 protection rating allows the lamphead to withstand rough wheater conditions, even driving rain.

Main Features
- Light output matches a 12 kW PAR (with lens)
- As small and lightweight as a 6 kW PAR
- Can also be used with 6,000 W (120 V nominal) lamps and ballasts
- Tilt locks on both sides for the use with heavy accessories
- Easy maintenance
- Weather resistant IP23
- Suitable for high frame rate images
