Safety
•
Lightning - For added protection for this video product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the device
due to lightning and AC power-line surges.
To prevent personal injury
•
To prevent injury and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before
connecting to the wall outlet or adjusting the projector.
•
To prevent injury, take note of the weight of the projector.
•
To prevent injury, ensure that the lens and all covers are correctly installed. See installation procedures.
•
Warning: high intensity light beam. NEVER look into the lens ! High luminance could result in damage to
the eye.
•
Warning: extremely high brightness laser: This projector uses extremely high brightness laser. Never
attempt to look directly into the lens or at the laser.
•
Before attempting to remove any of the projector's covers, you must turn off the projector and disconnect
from the wall outlet.
•
When required to switch off the projector, to access parts inside, always disconnect the power cord from
the power net.
•
The power input at the projector side is considered as the disconnect device. When required to switch off
the projector, to access parts inside, always disconnect the power cord at the projector side. In case the
power input at the projector side is not accessible (e.g. ceiling mount), the socket outlet supplying the
projector shall be installed nearby the projector and be easily accessible, or a readily accessible general
disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
•
Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious
damage to it and possible injury to the user.
•
It is hazardous to operate without lens or shield. Lenses, shields or ultra violet screens shall be changed if
they have become visibly damaged to such an extent that their effectiveness is impaired. For example by
cracks or deep scratches.
•
Exposure to UV radiation: Some medications are known to make individuals extra sensitive to UV
radiation. The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends
occupational UV exposure for an-8 hour day to be less than 0,1 micro-watts per square centimeters of
effective UV radiation. An evaluation of the workplace is advised to assure employees are not exposed to
cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines. The exposer of this UV radiation is
allowed for only 1 hour per day for maintenance and service persons.
To prevent fire hazard
•
Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
•
Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety
regulations. This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal
operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close
proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this
reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an "exclusion zone" around all external surfaces of the projector
whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less than
100 cm (39.4") for all DLP projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 5 m. Do not
cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable and
combustible materials away from the projector at all times. Mount the projector in a well-ventilated area
away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In
the event of fire, use sand, CO2 or dry powder fire extinguishers. Never use water on an electrical fire.
Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on
genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non- Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the
safety of this projector.
•
Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the
projector and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings
should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. This projector
should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This projector should not be placed in a
built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
•
Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat.
•
Let the projector cool down completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.
