Introduction
2. Recommended Usage
In order to get the most from the Planar LookThru LO552 display, use the following
recommended guidelines to optimize the display.
Planar LookThru displays are designed for fixed installation, indoor use only.
Normal use definition: 18 hours per day at 25ºC, moving image, 75 nits average
luminance
In use, the Planar LookThru LO552 display should be operated in the open air to prevent
heat buildup and without direct or indirect heat sources such as nearby lighting fixtures or
heating ducts that can cause the display to experience elevated temperatures.
If the display will be installed in a recessed area with a surround trim or other enclosing
feature around the Planar LookThru LO552 electronic box, ensure adequate openings
are provided for proper air flow and ventilation.
At sea level, the maximum ambient operating temperature for the Planar LookThru
display cannot exceed 40° C nor be below a minimum ambient operating temperature of
0° C. If one of these conditions is exceeded, it is up to the installer to ensure that display
placement is changed, thermal shielding is provided, and/or additional ventilation is
provided to keep the system within its nominal operating parameters.
For proper cooling, the electronic box should not be mounted closer than the spacing
described in the “Requirements for All Installations” section on page 20 to any continuous
surface. The perforated sheet metal on all sides of the Planar LookThru
electronic box
must be kept clear of obstruction or any sort of cover.
