Maintenance
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are to be inspected
by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating 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:
1.
All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must
not be corroded.
2.
There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots.
3.
Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing.
4.
The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue.
The Showtec Galaxy 1200 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 PC lenses will require weekly cleaning, as smoke-fluid tends to build up residues, reducing the
light-output very quickly.
The cooling-fans, the gobo-wheel, the gobos and the internal lenses should be cleaned monthly with a soft
brush.
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 and audio connections with a
damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric power.
Changing the Lamp

Disconnect mains power supply. Loosen the 6 screws on the metal housing.
2.

3.
Follow directions for installing a new lamp, page 6.
Replacing a Fuse
Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the fuse
burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens,
follow the directions below to do so.
1.
Unplug the unit from electric power source.
2.
Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the fuse cover. Turn the screwdriver to the left, at the same time gently
