8 Routine Maintenance
It is very important to perform routine maintenance on both the enclosure and the projector
inside it. Failure to do so may reduce lifetime for both the enclosure and the projector.
Note
Maintenance schedules depend on location and environment. The intervals given here are
general minimum guidelines. It is up to the user to judge whether maintenance should be carried
out more frequently. We recommend doing these tasks no less often than mentioned here.
Safety
As the enclosure is a powered unit with moving parts, it is necessary to keep safety in mind while
performing routine maintenance. Although maintenance can be performed while the enclosure is
powered, it is safer to carry it out with the power disconnected with proper lockout and tag out
procedures followed.
Be aware that once the enclosure has had power applied to it, the fans will start to turn. Make
sure that your hands are clear of the fans before applying power to the enclosure.
Only authorized personnel should perform maintenance on the enclosure or luminaire
Do not service the unit in the rain or other adverse weather conditions (snow, sleet, high winds,
etc.).
