Martin Exterior Linear Pro-DV QUAD 4ft – IP66 Outdoor Direct View Linear Fixture

Product Overview

The Martin Exterior Linear Pro-DV QUAD 4ft is a permanent outdoor architectural direct-view linear fixture designed for applications where the light source itself is the visual element. With a 180° beam angle, round diffuser, and RGBW QUAD LEDs (8/ft), it delivers a soft, wide-spread direct-view output for feature lighting, signage illumination, and lit architectural features. Rated IP66, IK08, and C5 corrosion resistance, it is built for permanent outdoor installation in the most demanding environments. Its selectable power modes (5W/ft to 12W/ft) and ASHRAE-compatible low-power mode make it suitable for energy-compliant permanent architectural LED installations.

Product Description

The Exterior Linear Pro-DV QUAD uses a round diffuser to create a soft, uniform direct-view appearance across its 180° beam spread. The RGBW QUAD LED engine with Full Gamut Color Calibration (1-step MacAdam ellipse) ensures consistent color matching across multi-fixture runs. A dedicated CCT control channel covers 1,800K to 12,000K for tunable white output. Segment control modes allow the 4ft fixture to be addressed as 1, 4, or 8 segments, enabling pixel effects and fine creative control.

The integrated 100–277V auto-ranging PSU supports long power runs, and the hybrid 8-pin PD connector allows daisy-chaining of up to 42 fixtures at 230–277V. DMX-512A and RDM (ANSI E1.20) control are standard, with 20-scene stand-alone capability. The same bracket ecosystem (adjustable, flange, quick-mount) applies across the full EL Pro range.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

What distinguishes the DV QUAD from the Graze and Cove variants?

The DV (Direct View) QUAD has a 180° beam angle with a round diffuser, intended for applications where the light source itself is visible as a design element. The Graze QUAD (15°) is for narrow-beam surface texturing; the Cove QUAD (100°) is for indirect bounce lighting.

What is the IP and corrosion rating?

IP66 (water jet protection from any direction), IK08 (impact), and C5 (marine-grade corrosion resistance per ISO 12944-6).

How does segment control work on the 4ft DV QUAD?

The 4ft fixture can be operated as one channel, 4 segments (~1ft each), or 8 segments (~0.5ft each), using 3, 12, or 24 DMX channels respectively.

Can this fixture be used with the same accessories as the Graze and Cove variants?

Yes. The mounting bracket system (adjustable, flange, quick-mount) is shared across all Exterior Linear Pro fixtures. Note the DV QUAD is slightly taller (84mm vs. 68mm) due to the round diffuser housing.

What is the warranty?

Martin provides a 5-year warranty for all Exterior Linear Pro fixtures in permanent outdoor installation use.
