About this chapter<br />
Read this chapter before installing your <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong>. It contains important information concerning installation requirements for the<br />
<strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong>, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient temperature, humidity conditions, required safety area around the<br />
installed projector, required power net, compatible signal sources, etc.<br />
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use<br />
are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.<br />

2.1 Installation requirements<br />
Ambient temperature conditions<br />
The maximum allowed ambient temperature for an operating Barco <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong> may not exceed +40 ºC (+104 ºF).<br />
The minimum allowed ambient temperature for an operating Barco <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong> may not drop below +10 ºC (+50 ºF).<br />
The projector will not operate if the ambient air temperature falls outside this range (+10 ºC → +40 ºC or +50 ºF → +104 ºF). Be<br />
aware that room heat rises to the ceiling. Check if the temperature near the installation site is not excessive.<br />
The minimum storage temperature is -35 ºC (-31 ºF) and the maximum storage temperature is +65 ºC (+149 ºF).<br />
Humidity conditions<br />
Storage: 0 to 98% relative humidity, non-condensing.<br />
Operation: 0 to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing.<br />
High Altitude<br />
For an optimal performance of the <strong>CLM</strong> at high altitude, make sure that sufficient air flow is available (maximum ambient temperature<br />
30°C).<br />
<strong>Projector</strong> weight<br />
Do not underestimate the weight of one Barco <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong>, which is about ±31 kg (±68 lb.). Be sure that the table or truss installation<br />
on which the projector(s) has to be installed is capable of handling five (5) times the complete load of the complete system.<br />
Power requirements<br />
One Barco <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong> (order number R9050130 and R90501301) requires 100-120/200-240V 12/8A 50/60Hz.<br />
One Barco <strong>CLM</strong> <strong>HD8</strong> (order number R90501305) requires 100-120/200-240V 16/8A 50/60Hz.<br />
Clean air environment<br />
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets. For<br />
installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines or<br />
similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading<br />
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean<br />
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a<br />
feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.<br />
Only ever use the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning kit which has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never<br />
use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics<br />
components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contaminants<br />
will culminate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will<br />
be noneffective and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufacturer’s warranty<br />
and may deem the warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any<br />
repair. It is the clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne<br />
particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to<br />
knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.<br />
