Installation Site Requirements

[507CMX : 427CMX]

3.1 Installation Site Requirements

If the site requires modifications or special preparations before installing the Plasma Display or its mounting hardware,

obtain permission in advance from the building owner or building authorities. To ensure safety, it is also important to

determine the strength of the installation site with the help of an authorized building contractor.

Safety Precautions

1) Structure of the installation site

Thoroughly study the structure of the installation site before determining the most suitable installation method.

Buildings vary in structure and materials, thus the best mounting choice differs at each location. When drilling into

walls, check for internal electrical wiring and hidden pipes.

2) Weight capacity of the installation site

Select a location sufficient to support the total weight of the display and mounting hardware.

3) Flat, level surfaces

Select a flat, level surface so that the mounting hardware is parallel to the proposed mounting surface.

Install the unit so that the load is evenly distributed along the ceiling or floor, as well as on mounting hardware such as

from hang bolts.

4) Sufficient work space

Select a location with sufficient space for installation preperations. The panel mounting should be conducted by two or

more people.

5) Nearby equipment

If air conditioning ducts, lamps, etc. are located near the installation site, dust, temperatures fluctuations, humidity, and

condensation may cause problems. Please take steps to avoid this possibility.

6) Safe locations

Do not install the unit where it may be easily touched or leaned against. Avoid locations subject to high vibration or

severe impacts.

7) Lighting conditions

• Check existing lighting and sunlight angles when considering an installation layout. Bright lighting can reduce the

visibility and quality of a displayed image.

• In very bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Extreme intensity

settings can reduce a system’s service life.

8) Other installation conditions

The panel is designed for indoor use and is not suited for open-air use. Installation in locations that are even partially

exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown. If there is a danger of being subjected to the conditions

listed below, it is necessary to limit the exposure as much as possible.

• Water or other liquids and dust

• Temperature and humidity changes

• Salt-bearing wind

• Direct sunlight (avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight upon the display as this can degrade image quality)

[507CMX : 427CMX]

9) Temperature and humidity conditions

• The installation site should meet the following conditions:

• Operating temperatures: 0 °C to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)

• Operating humidity: 20 % to 80 %

• Storage temperature: –20 °C to 60 °C

• Storage humidity: 20 % to 90 %

• Operating atmospheric pressure: 800 hPa to 1100 hPa

• Storage atmospheric pressure: 700 hPa to 1114 hPa

• We discourage installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the unit is to be

installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:

• Failure to install the unit in acceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.

• Make sure the unit is grounded.

• Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.

10) Prevent condensation

A primary problem during the winter is condensation forming on or in electronic equipment. Rapid temperature fluctuations can leave water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit OFF for an hour or more then increase the room temperature gradually before turning ON the unit. Consult Pioneer authorized dealers for assistance.

Installation Site Requirements

11) Power requirements

• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10 % of its rated voltage. Characteristics of power lines may effect the voltage output. If any of the following issues occur, contact an electrician to inspect the power source.

-- Significant voltage drop between the circuit panel and the Plasma Display

-- Significant changes in voltage when switching the display power ON or OFF

• Please allow the following margin for power consumption per unit. PDP-507CMX: 370 W = 370 VA PDP-427CMX: 320 W = 320 VA

(NOTE) When powering up the unit, the in-rush current is approximately 30 A.

• A grounded three-core power cable is used by the Plasma Display in order to maintain its functions. Connect the power cord by inserting it into a grounded electrical outlet. When using a different power source, use a conversion plug. Insert it into a grounded electrical outlet and securely attach the ground wire.

• A leakage current within a value, stipulated by standards in each country, flows from an internal noise filter through devices installed inside switching power sources such as television sets or air-conditioners. Because these currents are added together when multiple units are connected, take steps to prevent electric shock caused by ground wires, etc. When a leakage breaker is installed in a power distribution series, choose the leakage breaker rating that is at least two times the total leakage current. When many devices are connected, increase the number of leakage breakers and form branches in the wiring system.

12) Effective remote control distance

The remote control of this display receives at the following angles and distances.

• Front: 8 m

• Left-right 45°: 3 m/Left-right 30°: 7 m

• Upward 30°: 3.5 m/Upward 15°: 5 m

• Downward 30°: 5 m

If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby, remote control function may be affected. In such cases, move other devices further away from the display or contact a Pioneer-authorized dealer for assistance.

Depending on installation conditions, the remote control range may be reduced by infrared radiation emitted by the screen.

The screen’s infrared intensity varies, depending upon the displayed image.

3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity

As a courtesy to our customers, we have included the power formula for calculating air conditioning needs.

For power consumption, allow 370 W = 370 VA per unit.

Since most of the power consumed is transformed into heat, power consumption may be regarded as roughly equal to

generated heat. 1 Conversion to calories

[W] × 0.86 = [kcal/h]

Heat generated per display: 370 W × 0.86 = 318 kcal/h

2 Conversion to British Thermal Units

[W] × 3.41 = [BTU/h]

Heat generated per unit: 370 W × 3.41 = 1262 BTU/h

3.2.3 Product mounting holes

We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware, mount the

hardware to the unit using the M8-bolt holes on the unit. Tighten the bolts with a torque between 50 kg/cm and 80 kg/

cm. Applying a torque beyond these limits may lead to internal component failure.

3.2.4 Mounting surface warping

The display incorporates glass. Before mounting the panel using hardware other than that provided by Pioneer, perform

the following checks to confirm that the display is free from warps exceeding 1 mm*.

Regarding the 1 mm limit:

The panel frame may have a warp of up to 3 mm. If the total warp (the warp of the frame plus the warp of the

mounting surface) exceeds 4 mm then the glass in the display may experience excessive stress. To ensure that

the total warp is less than 4 mm, verify that the warp of the mounting surface is less than 1 mm.

1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string (maximum diameter

mount openings. Strings should be completely free of slack.

2 Measure the clearance (L) between the strings where they cross.

Distortion is expressed by: [Distortion] = L × 2.

3 If L is found to be 0, pass the strings through the other bolt mount openings then repeat the measurements. Any

value of L greater than 0 indicates the presence of distortion. If the measured value in both cases is 0, the

distortion is negligible.
