Barco ZEUS, Installation And Safety Manual

Page: 21 / 189

3. Getting started
3.2 Installation requirements
Environment conditions
Table below summarizes the physical environment in which the ZEUS projector may be safely operated or stored.
Environment Operating Non-Operating
Ambient Temperature 10°C (50°F) to 35°C (95°F) -15°C (5°F) to 60°C (140°F)
Air cleanliness Clean of fi ce environment (equivalent with cleanroom
standard ISO 14644-1 ISO Class 9)
n.a.
Humidity 5% to 85% RH Non-condensed 5% to 95% RH Non-Condensed
Altitude -60 (-197Ft) to 3000m (9843Ft) -60 (-197Ft) to 10000m (32810Ft)
Let the projector acclimatize after unpacking. Neglecting this may result in a startup failure of the Light Pro-
cessor Unit.
Cooling requirements
The projector is fan cooled and must be installed with suf fi cient space around the projector head, minimum 20 cm (8 inch) to ensure
suf fi cient air fl ow. It should be used in an area where the ambient temperature, as measured at the projector air inlet, does not
exceed 35°C (95°F).
The projector is capable of autonomous, stand alone cooling. Two exhaust options are possible:
1.
REAR EXHAUST (Option): Simply expel the hot air via the back housing into the room/booth/cabin.
In this case an external exhaust system is not required.
2. TOP EXHAUST (Standard): Attach the standard exhaust stack [positioned towards the top/back of the projector and designed
to fi t a 201mm (7.91inch) diameter duct] to the air extraction system. This fl ow size must be used throughout the entire system
and installed to eliminate any possibility of downdraft or rain dripping into the projector.
In this case the installation of an
external exhaust system is MANDATORY for safety reasons (possible direct eye contact
with UV light of the xenon lamp). The installed exhaust blower must remove an air volume of minimum 4m
3
/min (140 CFM)
measured at the exhaust output of the projector. Although not obligatory, Barco also advises to limit the amount of extraction to
a maximum of 5m
3 /min (180 CFM). Excessive air extraction can dramatically speed-up contamination of the projector air inlet
fi lters, hence requiring more regular fi lter cleaning interventions.
• If the projector is installed into a “ sound box ” the following applies: minimum extraction requirement for the complete projector:
7m
3
/min (240CFM), maximum advised extraction requirement: 8m
3
/min (280 CFM).
• If dual stacking applies, ensure that the upper projector is thermally insulated from the bottom projector. Typically in dual stack-
ing the bottom projector is installed with a “rear exhaust”.
• An external frame must be used to stack projectors.
• Where the projectors are installed close to each other, ensure that the projectors do not thermally affect each other.
C
AUTION
:
If more than one projector is installed in a common projection booth, the above exhaust air fl ow
requirements are valid for EACH individual projector head exhaust stack. Note that inadequate air extraction
will result in decreased life expectancy of the projector as a whole as well as causing premature xenon lamp
failure.
Main Power requirements
The ZEUS projector operates from a nominal mono phase power net with a separate earth ground PE (200-240 VAC, 50-60Hz, 16A
at 200 VAC).
The power cord required to connect the projector with the power net is not delivered with the projector. It is the responsibility of the
customer to provide the correct type of power cord. The cross-sectional area of the conductors in the power supply cord shall not
be less than
2.5mm
2
(12AWG) , minimum 300V. Take into account that the cable gland allows a cable diameter from 8 to 13mm.
To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends that the instrument panel
and cabinet be grounded. In no event shall this projector be operated without an adequate cabinet ground connection.
The AC supply must be installed by a quali fi ed electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes and conduit types
must comply with local codes.
A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated externally to the equipment for removal of the power to the equipment
mains terminals.
W
ARNING
:
Disconnect the power to the unit mains terminals for removal of all power from the unit.
