Remove and Replace Lamp Module
The lamp door (505-1513-xx) fits over the lamp cavity in the projector. A pin on the lamp door closes the
safety switch on top of the lamphouse when the door is shut.
The lamp module (SP-LAMP-009) consists of a metal housing and enclosed reflector assembly and arc
tube. Air flow from the 80 mm fan passes through openings on two sides of the lamp module. Screens
over these openings provide air filtration and contain quartz fragments in the event of lamp rupture.
CAUTION The lamp module gets very hot during operation. Allow the lamp to cool for 30 minutes before
handling it.
1. To remove the lamp door, insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into one of the recesses at the top
of the door. Gently pry the top of the door away from the projector. The door detaches from the
projector.
2. Squeeze the locking tab on the lamp cable connector and unplug it from the connector inside the
lamphouse.
