Cooling
The cooling requirement for the LOGIQ A3 is 1366 BTU/hr. This figure does not include cooling needed
for lights, people, or other equipment in the room. Each person in the room places an additional 300
BTU/hr. demand on the cooling system.

Lighting
Bright light is needed for system installation, updates and repairs. However, operator and patient
comfort may be optimized if the room light is subdued and indirect. Therefore a combination lighting
system (dim/bright) is recommended. Keep in mind that lighting controls and dimmers can be a source
of EMI which could degrade image quality. These controls should be selected to minimize possible
interference.
