Maintenance 

The operator has to make sure that safety-related and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by an expert after every year in the course of an acceptance test. 
The operator has to make sure that safety-related and machine-technical installations are to be 
inspected by a skilled person once a year. 
 
The following points have to be considered during the inspection: 
01)

 

All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and 
must not be corroded. 

02)

 

There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots. 

03)

 

Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing. 

04)

 

The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue. 

 

The Cameleon Bar 24/1 UV requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean. 
Otherwise, the fixture’s light output will be significantly reduced. Disconnect the mains power supply, and 
then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Wipe lens clean with glass cleaner and 
a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. 
The front lens will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the light-
output very quickly. 
Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and vacuum cleaner.  
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX connections with a damp 
cloth. Make sure that connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric 
power.
