Periodic cleaning
lenses and reflectors
Even a fine layer of dust can reduce the luminous output substantially. Regularly clean all lenses and the reflector using a
soft cotton cloth, dampened with a specialist lens cleaning solution. To do this, remove the two screws at the sides of the
safety glass. Remove the glass and use the lens cleaning solution and a soft cotton cloth to clean the reflectors.
Periodic maintenance
Lamps
The lamps should be replaced if there is any observable damage or deformation due to heat. This will avoid the danger of
the lamps exploding; you may gain access to the lamps as described in section 4.
Open the rear panel of the unit using the handle placed there for his purpose.
Fans and air passages
The fans and air inlets must be cleaned regularly to ensure the unit operates correctly. This should be underaken at least
every 6 weeks, the period for this periodic cleaning will depend, of course, upon the conditions in which the projector is
operating. Suitable instruments for performing this type of maintenance are a brush and a common vacuum cleaner or an
air compressor.
The fans and air inlets must be cleaned regularly to ensure the unit operates correctly. This should be underaken at least
every 4 weeks, the period for this periodic cleaning will depend, of course, upon the conditions in which the projector is
operating.
To gain access to the fans, remove the 4 screws located at the rear of the unit. Suitable instruments for performing this type
of maintenance are a brush and a common vacuum cleaner or an air compressor. Should this not suffice, the filter itself may
be immersed in a cleaning detergent.
Mechanicals
Periodically check all mechanical devices for wear and tear; gears, guides, belts, etc., replacing them if necessary. Ensure the
screws affixing the barndoors are firmly tightened.
Electrical components
Check all electrical components for correct earthing and proper attachment of all connectors, refastening if necessary.
Dichroic filters
To correctly clean and maintain the dichroic filters, it is necessary to gain access to the internals of the projector. This should
be done only by qualified technical personnel.
fuse replacement
Locate the fuse, which protects the lamp and electronics, in the base of the unit.
Using a multimeter, test the condition of the fuse, replacing it with one of equivalent type if necessary. |
