Chauvet Professional F4IP at a glance

The Chauvet Professional F4IP is outdoor 4.8 mm pitch LED with a 500 by 1000 mm cabinet carrying 104 by 208 pixels. Each cabinet weighs 13.6 kg (30 lb) and draws up to 305 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: 4.8 mm
  • Cabinet resolution: 104 by 208 (21,632 pixels)
  • Cabinet size: 500 by 1000 mm
  • Brightness: 5500 nits
  • Refresh rate: 3840 Hz
  • IP rating: IP65
  • Typical processor platform: Novastar

Power and circuits for the F4IP

At the 305 W peak figure, one 20A 120V circuit carries 6 cabinets and one 16A 230V circuit carries 9. 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 102 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: 305 W
  • Average per cabinet: 102 W
  • Cabinets per 20A 120V circuit: 6
  • Cabinets per 16A 230V circuit: 9
  • Input voltage: 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz

Worked example: a 4 by 3 wall

12 Chauvet Professional F4IP cabinets in a 4 wide by 3 high grid make a wall 2 by 3 m (6.56 by 9.84 ft) at 416 by 624 pixels.

That wall weighs about 163.2 kg before rigging hardware and draws up to 3,660 W, which needs 2 circuits at 20A 120V or 2 at 16A 230V.

  • Wall size: 2 by 3 m
  • Resolution: 416 by 624 pixels
  • Weight: about 163.2 kg
  • Peak draw: 3,660 W
  • Circuits: 2 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 Chauvet Professional F4IP?
4.8 mm. Each 500 by 1000 mm cabinet carries 104 by 208 pixels, or 21,632 in total.
How much power does the Chauvet Professional F4IP draw?
Up to 305 W per cabinet at peak, averaging around 102 W in normal content. That works out to roughly 610 W per square metre at peak. Size distro on the peak figure.
How many F4IP cabinets fit on one circuit?
6 on a 20A 120V circuit and 9 on a 16A 230V circuit, both at peak draw with the standard 80 percent continuous load derate applied.
How much does the Chauvet Professional F4IP weigh?
13.6 kg (30 lb) per cabinet, which is about 27.2 kg per square metre of wall. A 4 by 3 wall of them comes to roughly 163.2 kg before rigging hardware.
Are these Chauvet Professional specs exact?
Manufacturer published specs. Common outdoor/festival rental panel. 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.
