2.1 LAMP

We recommend that you use Osram Sirius HRI 132W. Make sure that the lamp you use is compatible with
local voltage. If the lamp is operated with a voltage surpassing its nominal operating voltage, it can be
damaged or its service life reduced considerably.

2.2 INSERTING OR REPLACING THE LAMP

• Because of its high internal pressure, there might be a risk that the discharge lamp would explode
during operation. The lamp emits intense UV radiation which is harmful to the eyes and skin. The high
luminance of the arc can cause severe damage to the retina if you take a close look at the lamp.
• The lamp generates UV radiation. Never operate the lamp without appropriate shielding.
• To protect the lamp, always turn off the lamp first (via control panel or DMX controller) and let the unit
run at least five minutes to cool down before switching off the mains supply. Never handle the lamp or
luminary when it is hot.
• Do not touch the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with denatured alcohol and
wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.
• When lighting up, the lamp operates at high pressure and there is a slight risk of arc tube rupture. The
risk increases with age, temperature and improper handling of the lamp. Do not use the lamp longer
than its lifespan.
• Make sure the lamp is located in the center of the reflector for the best projection.
Please proceed as follows to replace the lamp (The lamp used in this projector is a discharge lamp. After
switching off don't attempt to restart the projector until lamps has cooled, this will require approx 15
minutes. Switching the lamp on and off at short intervals will reduce the life of both the lamp and the
projector! Lamps that have been damaged must be replaced immediately):
1. Disconnect the power plug the unit. Use 1/4 Turn to loosen the screws and open the cover.
2. Take away the old lamp after disconnecting the cables
