About this chapter
Read this chapter before installing your CLM R10+. It contains important information concerning installation requirements for the
CLM R10+, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient temperature, humidity conditions, required safety area around the
installed projector, required power net, compatible signal sources, etc.
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use
are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.

2.1 Installation requirements
Ambient temperature conditions
The maximum allowed ambient temperature for an operating Barco CLM R10+ may not 40 ºC (+104 ºF).
The minimum allowed ambient temperature for an operating Barco CLM R10+ may not drop below +10 ºC (+50 ºF).
The projector will not operate if the ambient air temperature falls outside this range (+10 ºC → +40 ºC or +50 ºF → +104 ºF). Be
aware that room heat rises to the ceiling. Check if the temperature near the installation site is not excessive.
The minimum storage temperature is -35 ºC (-31 ºF) and the maximum storage temperature is +65 ºC (+149 ºF).
Humidity conditions
Storage: 0 to 98% relative humidity, non-condensing.
Operation: 0 to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing.
High Altitude
For an optimal performance of the CLM at high altitude, make sure that suf fi cient air fl ow is available (maximum ambient temperature
30°C).
Projector weight
Do not underestimate the weight of one Barco CLM R10+, which is about ±31 kg (±68 lb.). Be sure that the table or truss installation
on which the projector(s) has to be installed is capable of handling
fi ve (5) times the complete load of the complete system.
Power requirements
One Barco CLM R10+ requires 100-120/200-240V 12/8A 50/60Hz.
Clean air environment
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free fl ow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets. For
installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines or
similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a
feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning kit which has been speci fi cally designed for cleaning optical parts, never
use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics
components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contam-
inants will culminate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will
be noneffective and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufacturer’s warranty
and may deem the warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any
repair. It is the clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne
particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to
knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.
