Section 4: Maintenance

4.2.1 Wear Protective Clothing

Never open the lamp door unless you are wearing authorized protective clothing such as that included in a
Christie Protective Clothing Safety Kit #598900-095.
Recommended protective clothing includes, but may not be limited to a polycarbonate face shield, protective
gloves, and a quilted ballistic nylon jacket or a welder's jacket.
NOTE: Christie's protective clothing recommendations are subject to change. Any local or federal specifica-
tions take precedence over Christie recommendations.

4.2.2 Cool the Lamp Completely

DANGER
whenever lamp door is open or while handling lamp. 2) Ensure those within the vicinity of the projector
are also suited with protective clothing. 3) Never attempt to access the lamp while the lamp is on. Wait
at least 10 minutes after the lamp turns OFF before powering down, disconnecting from AC and
opening the lamp door.
The arc lamp operates at a high pressure that increases with temperature. Failure to allow the lamp to
sufficiently cool prior to handling increases the potential for an explosion causing personal injury and/or
property damage. After turning the lamp OFF, it is crucial that you wait at least 10 minutes before disconnect-
ing AC and opening the lamp door. This provides enough time for the cooling fans to properly cool the lamp.
Ensure the lamp is completely cooled before handling and always wear protective clothing!
For all other precautions critical for safe removal and replacement of the lamp, refer to

Maintaining Proper Cooling

The CP2220 high-intensity lamp and electronics rely on a variety of cooling components to reduce internal
operating temperatures. Regular inspection 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.

4.3.1 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 0.5m (19.69") on the left, right and rear
sides of the projector from any walls or other obstructions.

4.3.2 Light Engine 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
Replacement, on page 4-10
