The G-7 BeaSt is a dual-purpose moving head specialized in aerial beams and high-power blind / strobe effects. Its glass parabolic reflector collimates multiple reflections into one coherent beam of light, while a rounded array of LEDs, inserted in the center of the reflector, delivers a high-power white strobe blinder. Due to its wide lens aperture, projection capabilities, and outstanding direct view effect, the G-7 BeaSt creates an innovative system specially interesting for long-throw applications, high-scale tours, and versatile installations.
LED Technology
The G-7 BeaSt features a powerful 360W white LED engine in combination with a 440W SMD array. Both lightsources work at their maximum output when operated independently, and they can also build effects together within a 640W limitation. With 102 lumen per watt, the G-7 BeaSt is the most efficient luminaire in the SGM product range. The LEDs expected lifetime is 20,000 hours.
Optics
The G-7 BeaSt mounts a special optical system based on multiple reflection collimation over a glass parabolic reflector. This system allows the unit to output a powerful parallel beam of light with a 320mm (11") lens aperture. The strobe blinder consists in multiple lightsources with individual lenses inserted in the center of the reflector, optimized for direct view applications.
Photometrics
With a beam light output of 85,000 lux at 10 meters, and a strobe blind effect able to reach 50,000 lumen, the G-7 BeaSt offers a performance way above of its size. When the beam and the strobe / blinder are used together, the fixture is able to keep the same lux values.
Aerial FX
The G-7 BeaSt features an unique aerial projection, thanks to its bright parallel beam of light, 6 rotatable gobos (2 split colors, 3 gobo patterns, and 1 frost filter), expandable beam, and special animation effects. This product has been optimized for high visibility, and therefore it is ideal for long-throws that need to be seen from a distance.
Efficiency
With 102 lumen / watt for the strobe / blinder function, the G-7 BeaSt is the most efficient fixture in the SGM range. The whole luminaire has been optimized to obtain the highest output with a maximum power consumption of only 640W. When the fixture only uses the strobe blinder, 500W is the maximum power.
IP rating
The durable IP66-rating of the G-7 BeaSt ensures that the unit is kept free from externally induced particles and liquids, such as smoke fluid, dust, dirt, airborne pollution, and humidity. It is ideal for outdoor applications, while being practically maintenance-free makes it a sustainable and long-lasting choice for indoor installations as well.
Dehumidification
The internal built-in dehumidifier protects this fixture from moisture, pollution and any other factors that can generate corrosion. The patented SGM dehumidification, not only removes humidity, but also prevents oxidation and condensation, while a gore-tex membrane equalizes internal pressure to prevent leaks.

Thermal management
To achieve optimum performance of the LEDs at all times, this powerful luminaire is optimized to manage heat impact through SGM's unique thermal management technology. The technology consists of a uniquely designed body and heat sink, which ensures optimal cooling of the LED chips. Additionally, the special aluminium alloy and surface treatment ensures maximum heat dispersion while the fan-assisted cooling ensures optimal performance at any time and under any conditions (such as variable temperatures, limited airflows, confined installation spaces, etc.). Like all SGM products, the G-7 BeaSt consists of SGM's superior thermal management technology and it is tested under extreme hot and cold conditions, which ensures that the LEDs always operate within safe parameters. Learn more about SGM thermal management.
Mounting options
The G-7 BeaSt can be rigged with the included easy-fit omega brackets with ¼ turn fasteners. 4 different positions are available in the base for the brackets. Handles can be found in the low part of the head to help users transport and mount the fixture. This powerful spot can be rigged in any position, and it includes a tilt lock for the yoke.
Included SGM technologies
ThermalDriveTM
This thermal management techonology provides Advaced Temperature Control monitored via sensors and software, keeping optimal LED junction temperatures, and ensuring maximum reliability for long-term use. SGM's predictive color mixing algorithm compesates the decay levels of color-based LEDs for superior color rendering. Finally, the ThermalDriveTM system includes cutting-edge heat removal via passive thermal tecniques and active forced-air cooling (depending on the product), specifically designed to maintain LED efficiency while extending fixture's lifetime.
TruColorTM
SGM uses Full Range Calibration in all LED fixtures over CIE space and black body curve, measured via spectrometer and SGM Illumination Lab software. The consistency of each product and its lifetime expectancy is monitored throught inbuilt sensors to compensate color shifting and to allow color temperature re-calibration. To provide the best user experience, SGM's Color Match procedure ensures accurate wavelength reproduction within the product range via colored LEDs, dichroic filters, or CMY mixing (depending on the product); all of them specified to match the SGM color palette.
DryTechTM
SGM's integrated patented Dehumidification process eliminates humidity and breaks down corrosive molecules deriving from polluted air to avoid destructive corrosion. Inbuilt dehumidifiers constantly remove trapped hydrogen from inside of the lighting fixture in a solid estate electrolytic process with no moving parts. The DryTechTM procedure is also based on a Ingress Protection rating of 65 or 66 (depending on the fixture), intended as a full protection against dust and other particles, while ensuring protection against direct water jets.
