The following must be in place for laser-illuminated projector installations in the United States:
•Any human access to the hazard zone, if applicable, must be restricted by barriers to enforce
the no access zone.
•Permanent show installations containing Risk Group 3 laser-illuminated projectors must meet
the following conditions:
•Installed by Christie or by Christie-authorized and trained installers.
Refer to the Laser Illuminated Projector - Class 1 Risk Group 3 Installation training (Course
code: CF-LIPI-01) on the http://www.christieuniversity.com site.
•Performed according to instructions provided by Christie.
•Ensure the projection system is securely mounted or immobilized to prevent unintended
movement or misalignment of the projections.
•A copy of the FDA variance approval letter must be with the operator or other responsible
individual.
FDA variances can be found in the online training course–Laser Illuminated Projection - Class 1
Risk Group 3 Installation.
•Temporary show installations containing Risk Group 3 laser-illuminated projectors may be
installed by Christie or sold or leased only to valid laser light show variance holders (laser light
show manufacturers) for image projection applications. Such manufacturers may currently
hold a valid variance for production of Class IIIb and IV laser light shows and/or for
incorporation of the Risk Group 3 laser-illuminated projectors into their shows. This
requirement applies also to dealers and distributors of these laser-illuminated projectors.
•For temporary installations, the FDA variance holder must maintain complete records of all
show itineraries with dates, locations, operator name, and contact information clearly and
completely identified.
•The Christie Laser Projection System Installation Checklist must be fully completed after the
installation and sent to lasercompliance@christiedigital.com. A copy can remain on-site. This
checklist can be found as a separate document in the accessory box with the manual.
