5. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
5.1. Installing or replacing the lamp
CAUTION!
ONLY INSTALL THE LAMP WITH THE DEVICE UNPLUGGED FROM THE MAINS
CAUTION!
THE LAMP HAS TO BE REPLACED WHEN IT IS DAMAGED OR DEFORMED
Because of the nature of the extreme heat associated with the MSD Platinum 21R
470W lamp and the tight nature of the internal optical system it is imperative that
the lamp be replaced every 1500 hours. This is done to protect the internal optical
system as well as prevent accidental lamp explosion, which could lead to hot glass
particles falling from the fixture. Failure to change the lamp within 300 hours of
operation will result in automatic shut down of the fixture’s electronics.
At 1500 hours the display will begin to flash “Replace the lamp” and the lamp will
flicker for the first five minutes of operation. At this point the lamp has reached the
maximum rated life and should be replaced immediately. After the lamp has
flickered for about five minutes it should strike normally allowing the fixture to be
used temporarily until a replacement lamp can be installed. The fixture will
continue to operate for an additional 300 hours, however the “Replace the Lamp”
warning will continue to flash in the display. Keep in mind that the flicker protection
circuitry will only work for about 300 hours (lamp clock life of 1500-1800 hours).
After 1800 hours the fixture will no longer respond to DMX commands and
immediately enter a hibernation mode that will electronically discontinue all fixture
functionality with the exception of a few menu commands. The fixture will continue
to enter hibernation mode until the lamp is replaced and the lamp clock has been
reset.
Before replacing the lamp let the lamp cool down, because during operation, the lamp can
reach very high temperatures.
During the installation of halogen lamps do not touch the glass bare handed. Always use a cloth to handle
the lamps during insertion and removal.
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They generate higher temperatures than which the device was
designed for.
WARNING!
THE BULB SHOULD BE REPLACED WHEN DAMAGED OR HEAT DISTORTION.
CAUTION!
DISCONNECT THE FIXTURE FROM POWER AND ALLOW IT TO COOL FOR ONE HOUR
