RGBW LED Illuminators

UFO Nova Aqua Illuminator

A very powerful RGBW fiber optic illuminator utilising LED technology. Features full IP67 ingress protection and powered by an external 24V DC power supply unit.
Utilising industry standard DMX to control the unit's color change effects, plus the option of adding a twinkle wheel and an RF remote control, this is the ultimate illuminator for powering decorative fiber optic effect lighting.
A 50,000 hour lamp life and cool quiet running ensure that maintenance costs are reduced to almost nil.
Fitted with a standard 30mm fiber port connector, this illuminator is suitable for both new installations and retro-fitting to existing fiber optic installations.
Please note that although this illuminator is fully IP67 rated and can be used in wet/outdoor areas, it is not suitable for submersion in water and it should not be buried underground.

Sea Water & Saline

Please be aware that UFO will not specify, supply or install this illuminator for use in any area where corrosion or damage from saline may occur. This includes near the sea, on ships or in any other areas where the illuminator would be in an unprotected area. Damage caused by salt water due to improper, unprotected siting of the illuminator will void any and all UFO warranties on the product. UFO strongly recommend that the illuminator is not installed in any location where such damage may occur.

Fiberstars EFO Harness Compatibility

Fiberstars compatibility with UFO quality!

If you are one of the many people who have, in the past, purchased a fiber optic harness for use with a Fiberstars EFO-1+1 or EFO-AG illuminator, you may know that it is now virtually impossible to purchase a compatible, replacement illuminator.
This UFO illuminator is one of a range which is compatible out-of-box with these harnesses.
Optionally, you can purchase a light amplifier from us which will increase the light supplied to this type of harness. Simply insert the light amplifier into the port. Secure with the supplied screw and then attach your Fiberstars harness as normal.
You can now benefit from the great light output and features of a UFO illuminator without having the cost of replacing your fiber harness.
