Introduction

This manual is intended for professionally trained operators of the Christie Laser Projection System.

These operators are qualified to replace the lens and external air filters, but should not attempt to

install or service the projector. In addition, only Christie accredited personnel are authorized to

perform security procedures such as marriage.

Failure to comply with the following could result in death or serious injury.

• The components of the Christie Laser Projection System are designed and certified to

work together as a unit. Christie components should never be used with third-party

components. Use of non-Christie components with Christie systems may pose safety

concerns and void your warranty.

• Only Christie qualified technicians who are knowledgeable about the hazards associated

with laser use, high-voltage and high temperatures generated by the projector are

authorized to assemble, install, and service the Christie Laser Projection System.

General safety precautions

AC power precautions

Failure to comply with the following results in death or serious injury.

• An incorrect power setup provides a fire and shock hazard. Do not operate the system

unless certified connections, providing the recommended voltage, are used. Do not

attempt operation unless the power cord, power socket, and power plug meet the

appropriate local rating standards.

• Live power is a shock hazard. Only qualified service technicians are permitted to open a

projector enclosure, and only if the AC is fully disconnected.

Failure to comply with the following could result in death or serious injury.

• A qualified technician is required for all installations.

• The projection head must use Christie laser modules and the LM Rack (Full/Half).

• Use of the rear safety strap on the projector is mandatory to prevent the projector from

tipping. Secure the strap between the projector and the optional rack stand or another

structure.

• Four or more people are required to safely lift and install the projector.

• Two or more people are required to safely lift and install a Laser Module.

• The extremely high brightness of the projector can cause permanent eye damage. For

protection from harmful radiation, keep all projector housings intact during operation.

• Never look directly into the projector lens.

• Concentrated light is a fire hazard. Keep hands, clothes, and all combustible material

away from the concentrated light beam of the projector.

Failure to comply with the following could result in minor or moderate injury.

• Wear protective footwear when installing the rack.

• Position all cables where they cannot contact hot surfaces or be pulled or tripped over.

The Laser Modules and the projector must be operated in an environment that meets the

operating range specification. For the Laser Modules, see Operating environment on page

89; for the projector, see Operating environment on page 89. Failure to comply may result

in equipment damage.

Failure to comply with the following could result in death or serious injury.

• Loose cables provide a trip or fire hazard. Position all cables where they cannot contact

hot surfaces, be pulled, or be tripped over.

• Damaged cables provide a fire hazard. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord.

Never operate the projector if a cable appears damaged.

• Overloaded power outlets and extension cords provide a fire and shock hazard. Do not

overload power outlets or extension cords.

• Some attachments and accessories provide a fire, shock, or personal injury hazard. Only

use attachments and accessories that are recommended by Christie.

Only qualified service technicians are permitted to open projector enclosures and only if the

projector is disconnected from AC power. Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate

injury.

Laser Safety Precautions

This projector is intended for use in a cinema environment.

The Christie Laser Projection System components have laser classifications, as outlined by the

International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), ranging from Class 1 to Class 4. Immediate skin

hazard and eye hazard can occur from exposure to either the direct or specular reflected beam.

This may pose a fire hazard or a diffuse reflection hazard.

• Wavelength: 435 nm to 660 nm

• Beam divergence: 0.1 rad to 0.96 rad, lens dependent

• Pulse pattern: Continuous Wave (CW).

• Maximum output: < 10 W

Failure to comply with the following results in death or serious injury.

• This product must be installed within a restricted access location which is normally

inaccessible by the general public, including workers, visitors, and residents in the

immediate vicinity, by means of engineering or administrative control measures but is

accessible to authorized personnel that have had specific safety training.

• The installation setup must prevent access to the nominal ocular hazard area.

Failure to comply with the following could result in death or serious injury.

• A qualified technician is required for all installations.

• Never look into the end of a fiber optic cable while the device is operational. Laser

radiation can be harmful to the human eye and injury may occur.

• Invisible infrared LED radiation might be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors.

Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.

• Lasers contain a high energy density. These can be dangerous for skin tissue as well as

pose an electrical, chemical, and non-ionizing radiation hazard.

• Do not operate the Christie Laser Projection System with the laser rack access panels

removed.

Failure to comply with the following could result in minor or moderate injury.

• Turn the laser module breakers off before inspecting the fiber optic cable.

• Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified

herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
