About this cha pter
Read this chapter before installing your B-series projec tor. It contains important information concerning installation requirements
for the B -series projector, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient temperature, humidity conditions, required s afety ar ea
around the ins talled projec tor, required power net, etc.
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector plac ement and type of sc reen to use
are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.

2.1 Installation requirements
Environment conditions
Table below s umm arizes the phy sical env ironment in which the B -series projector may be sa fely oper ated 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)
Humidity 5% to 85% R H Non-condensed 5% to 95% RH Non-Condensed
Altitude -60 (-197Ft) to 3000m (9843F t) -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 sufficient space around the projector head, m inimum 20 cm (8 inch) to ensure
sufficient air flow. It should be used in an area where the am bient tempera ture, as measured at the projector air inlet , does not
exceed +35°C (+95°F).
The installation o f an exhaust system is MANDATORY. The installed exhaust blower must remove an air volume of minimum 10
m
3
/min (350 CFM) measured a t the exhaust output of the projector.
Main Power requirements
The B- series projector operates from a nominal mono phase power net with a s eparate earth ground PE.
