Overview
The ARRI 3" scrim kit is designed for fine output control in compact Fresnel fixtures with a 3" accessory slot, typically in the 150W–300W range. Each scrim is constructed from heat-resistant wire mesh within a rigid steel frame, reducing intensity without affecting color temperature or beam quality. The kit includes a full double scrim (~1 stop reduction), a full single (~½ stop), a half single, and a half double, allowing both overall output reduction and selective control across the beam. Half scrims are used to balance exposure within the frame, such as holding highlights or compensating for falloff, without adjusting fixture position. All scrims feature standard tabs for safe insertion and removal from the accessory holder during operation.

- Confirm the fixture has a 3 in accessory slot before bringing the scrim near a hot lamphead.
- Insert the scrim with its tab accessible and close the accessory-retaining latch so it cannot fall.
- Place a half scrim on the brighter side of the beam to balance falloff without moving the fixture.
- Use gloves for removal, inspect mesh for bends or tears, and let every scrim cool flat before returning it to the case.
