Robe iForte - 4 Checking the IP65 Integrity of the Fixture

4. Checking the IP65 integrity of the xture.
The Robin iForte is IP65 rated lighting xture which has been designed to be protected against the ingress of
dust and pressure water jets from any direction.
1. Smart pressure test - for this test serves the function "Pressure Test" in the tab Service. Unique testing
procedure allows you easy testing of the IP65 integrity of the xture. You do not need any external device con-
nected to the xture for running the test.
The xture has to be connected to mains (must not be in Standby mode) and a head temperature (at pressure
sensor) cannot be higher than 55°C. The pressure test takes about 8 minutes and can be run at earliest 10
minutes after closing light output of the xture. The pressure test can be repeated at earliest 2 minutes after
last pressure test.
The function "Pressure Test" should be run after the following actions:
- unscrewing/screwing back any watertight cover (e.g. due to gobos or frosts change)
- replacing pan or tilt motor
- replacing LED light source
- replacing d esiccants in the xture arm ( two tubes with silica gel) .
The pressure test can be also run by DMX command (channel Power/Special function) or from web interface
REAP (Robe Ethernet Access Portal). During the pressure test xture does not respond to DMX commands
(except DMX values 36-37 on the channel Power/Special functions).
Examples of screens (front panel display) of the smart pressure test:
Fixture waits for 10 minutes period elapsing (inside of the xture is too hot)
Fixture waits for 2 minutes period elapsing (pressure test was repeated too early)
