Maintaining Proper Cooling

The CP2000-ZX high-intensity lamp and electronics rely on a variety of cooling components to reduce internal
operating temperatures. Regular checking and maintenance of the entire cooling system is critical to prevent
overheating and sudden projector failure and helps to ensure reliable operation of all projector components
over time.

4.2.1 Ventilation

Vents and louvers in the projector covers provide ventilation, both for intake and exhaust. Never block or
cover these openings. Do not install the projector near a radiator, heat register or within an enclosure. To ensure
adequate airflow around the projector, keep a minimum clearance of 19.69" on the left, right and rear sides of
the projector from any walls or other obstructions.

4.2.2 Air Filter

CHECK: Monthly
It is recommended the air filter (located on the right side of the projector near the input connection panel) is
replaced whenever the lamp is replaced, or sooner in dusty or dirty environments. A clogged air filter reduces
air flow and can lead to overheating and failure of the projector. Check monthly by inspecting its color through
the side vent grille with a flashlight. A grey colored filter should be replaced. Refer to
the Lamp for instructions. It is also recommended that you visually check the laminar airflow device (LAD)
filter located just beyond the air filter opening using a flashlight. The LAD filter should be nearly white or light
gray in color. See also

4.2.3 Liquid Cooler

CHECK: Every 6 months
The liquid cooler system circulates liquid to and from the DMD heatsinks in the CP2000-ZX reducing the
DMD operating temperature to an acceptable level. Check the coolant level every 6 months, by removing the
air filter door and viewing it through the grille. Shine a flashlight through the grille if necessary. Make sure the
level of coolant remains between the two level indicators (preferably closer to the top indicator). (Refer to
Section 4.5 Replacing the Filter
If the liquid cooling system should fail, an over-temperature alarm window will display. If an over-temperature
state remains for more than one minute, the lamp will turn OFF.
