1.1 Introduction
About the external cooler
For functionality and reliability, events projector require accurate temperature control and cooling. Therefore a
liquid cooling system is provided in the projector.
The option of an additional external cooling can be chosen in two circumstances:
•
If the projector stands in a public space and needs to play as silently as possible. Using the external cooler
as a

cooling system, the projector will dissipate less heat and less noise (the amount varies
per projector type).
•
If you want to extend the lifetime of the projector and the light source, you can use the external cooler as
an additional cooling system.
If the option is chosen to have an external cooling system in addition to the integrated cooling system, the
cooling circuit inside of the projector will be connected to an external cooler via hoses. Only coolers and hoses
exclusively developed for this application and approved by Barco are allowed to be used in this setup.
The cooler is controlled by the projector and ensures that the ambient temperature of the laser banks, and all
other components within the light source are within spec.

About the optional cooler rigging frame
If you use multiple projectors with an external cooler, if your installation requires you to hang the coolers from
a truss beam, or if you just want a handy method to move the cooler module around, it is advised to buy the
optional cooler rigging frame (
R9801646
). This rigging frame has room for two cooler modules and comes with
2 filters as well.
