Description
The Curtain Sniffer can pull in up to 100 m² of fabric weighing up to 15 kg in about 1.5 seconds—creating a truly memorable stage effect for the audience.
Operation is made safe with the hold-to-run Three-Point Deadman Switch, which must be engaged correctly before the system can pull in fabric at speeds of up to 12 m/s. The Deadman Switch comes with a 10m long cable, so you can operate it from a safe distance.
The Curtain Sniffer comes with six slim eye couplers (50 mm / 2 in), making it easy to mount the unit onto standard truss in your existing stage setup. It can also be ordered with a Flightcase on wheels to easily transport the unit between locations.
It can be operated using a hand controller and a lighting desk for DMX signal, as shown in the illustration below.
