Proudly built in the USA, the VL3500 Wash FX luminaire has an output that exceeds 70,000 lumens as well as varied new options for color and beam control making it the standard by which all wash lights are measured.
The VL3500 Wash FX luminaire features internal zoomable beam optics with either Fresnel or Buxom options, an interchangeable front lens system, and four position plus open rotating FX pattern wheel. The fixture provides CYM color mixing, variable CTO color temperature correction, dual five-position color wheels, a separate dimmer, and an independent dual blade strobe mechanism.
In conjunction with its zoomable optics system, Vari-Lite introduces the VARI*BRITE mode. From almost any zoom position, this mode can be engaged to offer a tight column of remarkably intense light making the VL3500 Wash FX the most versatile wash luminaire on the market.
The VL3500 Wash FX allows users to operate its single lamp at three different wattages via either a control channel setting or a lamp menu option. With only a setting adjustment, the fixture will run its short arc lamp at 900W, 1200W or 1650W without any detrimental effects on the lamp.
An upper enclosure houses the control electronics as well as an arc power supply for the unit’s short arc lamp. The arc power supply is power factor corrected for efficient power distribution and reliability.
The VL3500 Wash FX is similar in size to our other Series 3000 luminaires, which provides a consistent hang configuration and appearance no matter which luminaire type is utilized.

Color System: Six color control wheels total. A three filter CYM cross fading system, two fixed color wheels
with five interchangeable color filters each capable of continuous wheel rotation for
additional effects, and a variable CTO color temperature correction wheel.
Beam Control: A zoomable beam spreader mechanism provides continuous beam size control for rapid or
smooth timed changes. The VARI❋BRITE mode, accessible from all zoom positions, splits
the beam spreader and produces a tight, intense column of light. Easily interchangeable
glass panels (included) allow user to choose either Fresnel or Buxom spreader patterns.
Beam may also be controlled through the use of one of three easily interchangeable front
lenses: Plano Convex-ULTRA Clear, Plano Convex-Stipple, and Fresnel – all three included.
All front lens assemblies have mounting points to allow for attachment of after market
accessory hardware.
One rotating FX pattern wheel provides four rotatable and indexable positions and one open
position. Additional catalog and custom FX Patterns available upon request.
Intensity Control: Full field dimming designed for both smooth timed fades as well as quick dimming effects.
Strobe: High-performance dual blade strobe system independent of dimmer wheel and capable of
ultra-fast operation.
Pan and Tilt: Smooth, time-controlled continuous motion by way of three-phase stepper motor systems.
Range: Pan - 540°, Tilt - 270°.
Accuracy: 0.3° resolution.
