• This product must be operated in an environment that meets the operating range as specified in this document.

• Do not look directly into the lens when the light source is on. The extremely high brightness can cause permanent eye damage.

• EXTREME BRIGHTNESS! When accessing a restricted access location for product service or maintenance, avoid exposure to the product beam path by turning the product power off and disconnecting the product from AC power, or by shuttering the light source to avoid emissions from the front aperture.

• FIRE HAZARD! Keep hands, clothes, and all combustible material away from the concentrated light beam of the projector.

• Keep fingers and other body parts away from the moving parts in the product. Tie back long hair, and remove jewelry and loose clothing before manually adjusting the product.

• FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD! Use only the attachments, accessories, tools, and replacement parts specified by Christie.

• Do not operate the product without a lens installed.

• Always use a lens plug when installing or moving the product. This prevents contaminants from entering the product.

Introduction

Light intensity hazard distance

This projector has been classified as Risk Group 3 as per the IEC 62471-5:2015 standard due to possible hazardous optical and thermal radiation being emitted.

Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in serious injury.

• PERMANENT/TEMPORARY BLINDNESS HAZARD! No direct exposure to the beam must be permitted. Class 1 Laser Product - Risk Group 3 according to IEC 60825-1:2014 and IEC

62471-5:2015.

• PERMANENT/TEMPORARY BLINDNESS HAZARD! Operators must control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at the height that prevents exposure of spectators' eyes within the hazard distance. The hazard zone must be no lower than 3.0 meters above the floor and the horizontal clearance to the hazard zone must be a minimum 2.5 meters.

• EXTREME BRIGHTNESS! Do not place reflective objects in the product light path.

The following diagram and table show the zones for ocular and skin hazard distances:

• A—Hazard zone. The region of space where the projection light from the laser-illuminated projector is above emission limits for Risk Group 2. The light intensity may cause eye damage after a momentary or brief exposure (before a person can avert his or her eyes away from the light source). The light may cause skin burns to occur.

• B—Hazard distance. Operators must control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product preventing potential exposure of the spectators' eyes from being in the hazard distance.

• C—No access zone. Horizontal clearance of the no access zone must be a minimum of 2.5

meters.

• D—Vertical distance to hazard zone. The hazard zone must be no lower than 3.0 meters above the floor.

• E—Represents the top view of the projector.

• F—Represents the side view of the projector.

For US and international hazard distances based upon IEC 62471-5:2015, Photobiological Safety of

Lamps and Lamp Systems – Part 5: Image Projectors.

Introduction

• 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 [email protected]. A copy can remain on-site. This checklist can be found as a separate document in the accessory box with the manual.

• Certain US states have additional laser regulatory requirements. Go to www.christiedigital.com for additional regulatory requirements.
