Take 6 Projectors,<br />
add 6 Enclosures,<br />
mix in lots of talent...<br />
...and this is what you get!<br />
Valy Tremblay, of Montreal-based<br />
Proluxon,<br />
had a dream commission:<br />
Captivate nightly<br />
audiences outside the<br />
historic church facade in<br />
Zacatecas, Mexico, with a<br />
creative projection show,<br />
full of the colors and textures<br />
of local history and<br />
culture.<br />
He knew he’d use <strong>Christie</strong><br />
projectors – but how to<br />
protect them from weather,<br />
and the steamy humidity<br />
of Mexican summers?<br />
Valy ran into <strong>Tempest</strong> at<br />
a trade show, and quickly<br />
saw that he’d found the<br />
solution. Six Cyclone<br />
8000 enclosures later, the<br />
show is now a permanent<br />
feature of the Mexican<br />
cultural scene.<br />
Top: Towers were constructed<br />
at two corners of the square,<br />
each supporting three <strong>Tempest</strong><br />
Cyclone 8000 enclosures.<br />
Bottom: This is how the church<br />
front looks during the day...<br />

Our<br />
Story<br />
<strong>Tempest</strong> Lighting is<br />
the world’s leading<br />
manufacturer of<br />
outdoor enclosures for<br />
high-powered lighting<br />
equipment and digital<br />
projectors.<br />
For years, <strong>Tempest</strong><br />
enclosures have been<br />
protecting automated<br />
lights in theme parks,<br />
cityscapes and on cruise<br />
ships, operating 24/7 in<br />
every climate imaginable.<br />
<strong>Tempest</strong>’s patented<br />
Digital Enclosure Control<br />
(DEC TM ) technology<br />
keeps your projector<br />
cool when it’s hot, warm<br />
when it’s cold, and never,<br />
ever, allows deadly<br />
condensation to form.<br />
Projectors used outdoors<br />
without protection might<br />
survive for weeks or<br />
months. Inside a <strong>Tempest</strong><br />
enclosure, you can expect<br />
the same lifetime for your<br />
projector (and your lamp!)<br />
as if it were being used<br />
indoors.<br />
When the <strong>Tempest</strong><br />
enclosure senses that<br />
the projector is on,<br />
powerful fans change the<br />
air inside the enclosure<br />
every 2-3 seconds,<br />
preventing heat buildup.<br />
When the projector is<br />
off, we actively control<br />
internal temperature and<br />
humidity, to maintain a<br />
safe minimum operating<br />
temperature and prevent<br />
condensation.<br />
<strong>Tempest</strong> enclosures<br />
are easy to install<br />
and easy to use, with<br />
minimal maintenance<br />
requirements.<br />
So next time you want to<br />
make magic in a historic<br />
site, advertise in a train<br />
station, or just watch the<br />
game while you’re grilling<br />
a steak, remember this<br />
formula:<br />
<strong>Christie</strong> Digital<br />
+ <strong>Tempest</strong> Lighting<br />
= Outdoor Projection
