TRUE BLUE fixtures have been designed for serviceability with more common
parts across the line. Removing six universal Torx screws provides easy
access to all interior parts. TRUE BLUES require only three Torx drivers to
disassemble the complete fixture.
ARRI’s new aluminum extrusion makes cleaning fixtures easy and our new
paint process ensures that TRUE BLUES will look as great as they perform.
Maintenance
TRUE BLUE fixtures are
manufactured to the IP23 standard
and are suitable for indoor use or
outdoor use providing a degree of

better control and sharper cutoff.
