Barco XDL-4K75, User Manual

1. Safety
2.0 meter (SH) above any surface upon which persons other than operators, performers, or employees are permitted to stand or less
than 1.0 meter (SW) lateral separation from any place where such persons are permitted to be. In environments where unrestrained
behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential
exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual’s shoulders, within the HD.
These values are minimum values and are based on the guidance provided in IEC 62471-5:2015 section 6.6.3.5.
The installer and user must understand the risk and apply protective measures based upon the hazard distance as indicated on
the label and in the user information. Installation method, separation height, barriers, detection system or other applicable control
measure shall prevent hazardous eye access to the radiation within the hazard distance.
For example, projectors that have a HD greater than 1 m and emit light into an uncontrolled area where persons may be present
should be positioned in accordance with “the
fi xed projector installation” parameters, resulting in a HD that does not extend into
the audience area unless the beam is at least 2.0 meter above the fl oor level. In environments where unrestrained behavior is
reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential exposure,
for example by an individual sitting on another individual’s shoulders, within the HD. Suf
fi ciently large separation height may be
achieved by mounting the image projector on the ceiling or through the use of physical barriers.

Based on national requirements, no person is allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and
the related hazard distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating suf
fi cient separation height or by placing barriers.
The minimum separation height takes into account the surface upon which persons other than operator, performers or employees
are permitted to stand.
On image 1-2 a typical setup is displayed. It must be veri fi ed if these minimum requirements are met. If required a restricted zone
(RZ) in the theater must be established. This can be done by using physical barrier, like a red rope as illustrated in image 1-2.
The restricted area sticker can be replaced by a sticker with only the symbol.
