SAFETY INFORMATION

tc150°C

• Protection against electrical shock

Connection must be made to a power supply system fitted with efficient earthing (Class I appliance according to
standard EN 60598-1).
It is, moreover, recommended to protect the supply lines of the projectors from indirect contact and/or shorting to
earth by using appropriately sized residual current devices.

• Connection to mains supply

Connection to the electricity mains must be carried out by a qualified electrical installer.
Check that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to those for which the projector is designed as given on the
electrical data label.
This label also gives the input power to which you need to refer to evaluate the maximum number of fittings to
connect to the electricity line, in order to avoid overloading.
IMPORTANT: to prevent EMI disturbances, in some condition it might be necessary to clip around the DMX and the
Ethernet cable, as close as possible to the projector, an appropriate ferrite bead. Shielded cables must always be used.

• Temperature of the external surface

The maximum temperature that can be reached on the external surface of the fitting, in a thermally steady state, is
150°C (302°F).

• Maintenance

Before starting any maintenance work or cleaning the projector, cut off power from the mains supply.
After switching off, do not remove any parts of the fitting for at least 10 minutes. After this time the likelihood of the lamp
exploding is virtually nill. If it is necessary to replace the lamp, wait for another 20 minutes to avoid getting burnt.
The fitting is designed to hold in any splinters produced by a lamp exploding. The lenses must be mounted and, if
visibly damaged, they have to be replaced with genuine spares.

Periodical cleaning - Fig. 18
To ensure optimal operation and performance for a long time it is essential to periodically clean the parts subject to dust and grease deposits. The
frequency with which the following operations are to be carried out depends on various factors, such as the amount of the effects and the quality of the
working environment (air humidity, presence of dust, salinity, etc.).
Use a soft cloth dampened with any detergent liquid for cleaning glass to remove the dirt from the reflectors, from the lenses and filters. It is recommended
that the projector undergoes an annual service by a qualified technician for special maintenance involving at least the following operations:

• General cleaning of internal parts.

• Restoring lubrication of all parts subject to friction, using lubricants specifically supplied by Clay Paky.

• General visual check of the internal components, cabling, mechanical parts, etc.

• Electrical, photometric and functional checks; eventual repairs.
