Q: The projector has been exposed to rain during
an outdoor show without the Rain Cover installed.
What shall Idonext?
A: It is necessary to remove the laser projector from its
flight case as soon as possible - within 24 hours at the
latest after the show, and let both projector and flight case
fully dry out.
NEVER turn ONthe projector before itis100% dry inside
out.
When ready, please check the status ofthe anti-humidity
cassette containing silica gel. For more information about
this topic, go to the User manual (chapter Maintenance).
Insucient drying of the projector and its flight-case
can cause permanent damage to the projector (mould,
corrosion) and voids the warranty. Powering up wet
ordump projector can cause electrical shock, injury, orfire
risk. Itcan also cause permanent damage tothe projector,
inwhich case the warranty isvoided.
Q: Is the Rain cover accessory suitable for long term
protection against outdoor weather conditions?
A: No. The Rain cover was designed as emergency
protection against rain or snow for short term outdoor
use. During intense precipitation and winds, it can
get soaked with water. Therefore, removing the
rain cover from the projector after every use and
letting it dry together with the projector is necessary.
Insucient drying of the projector and its flight-case
can cause permanent damage to the projector (mould,
corrosion) and voids the warranty. Powering up wet
ordump projector can cause electrical shock, injury, orfire
risk. Itcan also cause permanent damage tothe projector,
inwhich case the warranty isvoided.
Q: Is it possible to use the Rain cover for a projector
that is set other than horizontally (i.e. when projecting
upwards)?
A: No. Our Rain cover works eciently ONLY for projectors
set inahorizontal position - that’swith rubber feet towards
the ground.
Ifthe Rain cover isused any other way, itwon’tprotect your
equipment.
Q: Atlow temperatures, the laser projector won’tstart.
A: The operating temperature range for Kvant laser
projectors is+10°C(50°F) to+35°C(95°F).
If used outside of this range, we recommend
using the Kvant Monsoon. This robust and durable
enclosure will protect your delicate equipment,
such as laser projectors, against harsh weather
conditions, extreme temperatures and high humidity.
As a temporary solution, you can use an electric heater
topre-heat the air entering the laser projector. Place the
heater atthe correct distance from the projector, sowhen
the air enters the laser projector, it is within the range
+10°C(50°F) to+25°C(77°F). The projector may get damaged
ifthe heater isplaced too close tothe projector’sairflow
inlets orrear control panel.
Q: Laser projector stops working or even won’t start
athigh ambient temperatures.
A: The operating temperature range for Kvant laser
projectors is+10°C(50°F) to+35°C(95°F). Using projectors
inanenvironment with air temperatures within 35°C (95°F)
to45°C(113°F) isnot harmful tothe projector, but limits its
ability todisperse the heat eciently, resulting inlowered
nominal power output orcomplete cuto.
There isarisk ofpermanent damage tothe laser
projector ifused intemperatures exceeding 45°C(113°F),
inwhich case the warranty isvoided.
Never place and use projectors near objects that
generate excessive heat, such asradiators, powerful
discharge lighting, orwarm air outlets.
For the use intemperatures exceeding 35°C(95°F),
installing the projector into the Monsoon box with abuilt-
inACunit ishighly recommended.
Asatemporary solution, you can use asmall ACunit and
direct it’soutput towards the projector’sintake fans.
Q: Is it possible to do modifications to the electronic
circuitry ofthe laser projectors?
A: Itisnot allowed tomodify the electronic circuitry
oflaser projectors without prior authorization and
approval ofKvant’stechnical support representative.
Any unauthorized modifications will result inimmediate
warranty termination.
There isarisk ofelectric shock and the risk ofinjury
orproperty damage bylaser radiation. Unauthorized
modifications ofthe circuitry may cause achange inthe
projector’sfunctionality and specifications, making
itincompliant with regulations and standards ofClass
IVlaser devices.
Q: What ifIfeel asmall electric shock when touching the
metal parts ofthe projector’shousing?
A: Turn o the projector immediately. Disconnect the
projector from the AC mains power supply. A qualified
electrician must check the mains power cable and the
socket.
The two common reasons are:
1. Too long AC mains power cable with joined cables
N(blue) and PE(yellow-green). The 3-wire connection
isessential.
2. Disconnected, not connected, orinterrupted PEwire
inACmains power cable orACwall plug.
Q: What if I feel a pretty strong electric shock when
touching the metal parts ofthe projector’shousing?
A: There is a danger of fatal electric shock! Turn o the
projector immediately. Disconnect the projector from the
ACmains power supply. Aqualified electrician must check
the mains power cable and the socket.
