Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 at a glance

The Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 is indoor 1.95 mm pitch LED with a 500 by 1000 mm cabinet carrying 256 by 512 pixels. Each cabinet weighs 16.4 kg (36.2 lb) and draws up to 360 W.

Those four numbers drive everything else on a build: how many cabinets reach your target size, what the wall weighs on the rigging, how many circuits the distro needs, and what resolution the processor has to feed.

  • Pixel pitch: 1.95 mm
  • Cabinet resolution: 256 by 512 (131,072 pixels)
  • Cabinet size: 500 by 1000 mm
  • Brightness: 1000 nits
  • Refresh rate: 7680 Hz
  • Typical processor platform: Novastar

Power and circuits for the PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000

At the 360 W peak figure, one 20A 120V circuit carries 5 cabinets and one 16A 230V circuit carries 8. Both numbers apply the 80 percent continuous load derate (NEC 210.20, IEC 60364), which is the same maths WireFlow uses when it sizes a real wall.

Size the distro on peak, not average. Average draw of 120 W tells you what the wall costs to run over a show; peak is what trips a breaker during a white flash.

  • Peak per cabinet: 360 W
  • Average per cabinet: 120 W
  • Cabinets per 20A 120V circuit: 5
  • Cabinets per 16A 230V circuit: 8
  • Input voltage: 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz

Worked example: a 4 by 3 wall

12 Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 cabinets in a 4 wide by 3 high grid make a wall 2 by 3 m (6.56 by 9.84 ft) at 1024 by 1536 pixels.

That wall weighs about 196.8 kg before rigging hardware and draws up to 4,320 W, which needs 3 circuits at 20A 120V or 2 at 16A 230V.

  • Wall size: 2 by 3 m
  • Resolution: 1024 by 1536 pixels
  • Weight: about 196.8 kg
  • Peak draw: 4,320 W
  • Circuits: 3 at 20A 120V, 2 at 16A 230V

Build this wall in WireFlow

The calculator above sizes a wall to your target dimensions with this panel's real cabinet geometry, then reports cabinet count, resolution, weight, and circuits. From there WireFlow can drop the finished wall straight into a diagram, already wired to its processors, and the cable schedule and power report update with it.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pixel pitch of the Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000?
1.95 mm. Each 500 by 1000 mm cabinet carries 256 by 512 pixels, or 131,072 in total.
How much power does the Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 draw?
Up to 360 W per cabinet at peak, averaging around 120 W in normal content. That works out to roughly 720 W per square metre at peak. Size distro on the peak figure.
How many PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 cabinets fit on one circuit?
5 on a 20A 120V circuit and 8 on a 16A 230V circuit, both at peak draw with the standard 80 percent continuous load derate applied.
How much does the Absen PL1.9 Plus V2 500x1000 weigh?
16.4 kg (36.2 lb) per cabinet, which is about 32.8 kg per square metre of wall. A 4 by 3 wall of them comes to roughly 196.8 kg before rigging hardware.
Are these Absen specs exact?
Estimated specs. Derived from PL1.9 Pro V2 500x500. Fine-pitch 500x1000 planning preset, verify power/weight by cut sheet. Verify against the manufacturer cut sheet before ordering.
Can I design a wall with this panel in WireFlow?
Yes. Pick this panel, give it a target size, and WireFlow works out the cabinet grid, pixel map, weight, and power per circuit, then places the wall into your diagram already wired to its processors. Free to start with three diagrams and no card.
