Libec 100mm bowl pedestal with DL-10RB Compact for studio use, payload 30kg

The configuration combining a 100mm bowl pedestal with the DL-10RB Compact Dolly forms the base of the official Libec P110S Compact Pedestal System (Studio version).

This system is engineered specifically for midrange camera setups, small box lenses, and teleprompters in tight television studio environments, supporting a total system payload of up to exactly 30 kg (66 lbs).

System Component Breakdown & Studio Integration

1. The Mount: 100mm Native Bowl Interface

Unlike larger studio pedestals that use flat 4-bolt plates, the top casting of the P110 column features a native 100mm bowl. This allows you to drop in high-end 100mm broadcast fluid heads (such as the Libec RHP75 or LX10) directly without adapters. This setup makes it fast and easy to level your rig using the head's half-ball tie-down knob before pressurizing the column.

2. Vertical Control: The P110 Pneumatic Column

• Double-Bearing Stabilizer System: Libec integrates a high-precision double-bearing framework around the base joints of the column. This completely counteracts micro-wobbles or physical swaying when performing rapid "on-air" manual vertical transitions.

• On-Air Stroke Mechanics: The 2-stage column splits elevation duties between an air-pressurized upper stage for smooth manual adjustments via the steering ring, and a lower manual stage for anchoring your baseline height.

• Safe Air Tuning: The internal pneumatic tank is filled using a high-capacity manual pump (included). A mechanical pressure gauge monitors the column, backed by an integrated safety relief valve that automatically dumps excess air to prevent over-pressurization.

3. Floor Movement: The DL-10RB Compact Dolly

• Tracking Lock System: The large 125mm (4.9") double-wheel casters feature a structural foot-switch. This toggle locks the caster path direction, letting you slide the camera package in perfectly straight linear tracking lines for flawless side-to-side or push-in dollying.

• Detachable Cable Guards: Height-adjustable steel loop bars ride fractionally above the studio floor. They actively sweep thick broadcast, power, or fiber optic cables out of the way of the wheels, preventing unexpected bumps mid-shot.

• Foldable Footprint: The DL-10RB is explicitly shaped to fold into a tight 700mm (27.5") length, making it easy to roll through narrow studio doorways or pack away for storage.

Critical Studio Operating Safety Rule:

⚠️ The Pre-Mount Column Pressure Rule: Never pump high-pressure air into the P110 column while the 100mm bowl is empty, and always lock the upper column's mechanical safety brake before mounting or stripping components from your camera package. If you add heavy air pressure to an unladen pedestal, releasing the safety brake will cause the upper column to rocket upward instantly with severe kinetic force, creating a major risk of personal injury or equipment damage. Always match pressure only after the full camera and head load are clamped down.
