2. CONFIGURATIONS, REQUIREMENTS AND
RESTRICTIONS
About this chapter
Read this chapter before installing your HDF W series projector. It contains important information concerning installation require-
ments and restrictions for the HDF W series projector, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient temperature, humidity
conditions, required safety area around the installed projector, required power net, tilt, e
tc.
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use
are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.

rojector may be safely operated or stored.

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, minimum 10 cm (4 inch) to ensure
sufficient air flow. It should be used in an area where the ambient temperature, as measured at the projector air inlet , does not
exceed +40 °C (104 °F).
Clean air environment
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets. For
installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines or
similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a
feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use the manufacturer’s recom
mended cleaning kit which has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never
use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics
components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contam-
inants will culminate in extensive
and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will
be noneffective and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufacturer’s warranty
and may deem the warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any
repair. It is the clients respons
ibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne
particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to
knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.
Main Power requirements
The HDF W series projector operates from a nominal mono phase power net with a separate earth ground PE.
