General
2.1 Installation requirements
Environmental conditions
The table below summarizes the physical environment in which the Prometheus III may be safely operated or
stored.
Environment
Ambient Temperature
Air cleanliness
Humidity
Altitude
Let the projector acclimatize after unpacking. Neglecting this may result in a startup failure of the
Light Processor Unit.
Use in high altitude conditions
When 3000 m environmental condition is combined with the highest permissible temperature (35°C ambient),
the projector may be expected to go into warning status. Hence, for high altitude conditions, we advise max
30°C ambient condition (25°C is preferred).
Furthermore, to avoid temperature warnings on laser banks, we advise in high altitude to set cooler fans to
100%.
Cooling requirements
For functionality and reliability, the Prometheus III requires accurate temperature control and cooling.
Therefore a liquid cooling system is provided consisting of liquid circuits inside the Prometheus III which are
connected via hoses to external coolers. Only coolers and hoses exclusively developed for this application
and approved by Barco are allowed to be used.
Main Power requirements
The Prometheus III operates from a nominal single phase power net with a separate earth ground PE.
Projector
Prometheus III
The power cord required to connect the projector with the power net is not delivered with the projector. It is the
responsibility of the customer to provide the correct type of power cord. The cross-sectional area of the
conductors in the power supply cord shall not be less than 4 mm² or 10 AWG, minimum 300V.
To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends that
the instrument panel and cabinet be grounded. In no event shall this projector be operated without an
adequate cabinet ground connection.
The AC supply must be installed by a qualified electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes
and conduit types must comply with local codes.
A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated externally to the equipment for removal of the
power to the equipment mains terminals.
The building installation must be provided with a circuit breaker of max. 40A to protect the complete unit.
Exhaust outlet for external fan
The exhaust outlet has an output voltage of 200– 240V at 50– 60 Hz; switched and maximum 3 amperes is
allowed.
