HTI / HMD 300

• Maximum ambient temperature
For the fitting to operate well and reliably, the ambient temperature should not
exceed 35°C (95°F).

• IP20 protection rating
The fitting is protected against penetration by solid bodies with a diameter of over
12 mm (0.47”) (first digit 2), but not against dripping water, rain, splashes or jets of
water (second digit 0).

• Protection against electrical shock
This fitting is classified, in accordance with the type of protection against electrical
shock, in Class I. It must therefore be connected to a power supply system with
efficient earthing.
It is, moreover, recommended to protect the supply lines of the projectors from
indirect contact and/or shorting to earth by using appropriately sized residual current
devices.

• Hooking up to the supply mains
The operations for connecting to the electricity mains must be carried out by a
qualified electrical installer.
Check that the mains frequency and voltage correspond to the frequency and
voltage for which the projector is designed, given on the electrical data label.
This label also gives the input power. Refer to this to evaluate the maximum number
of fittings to connect to the electricity line in order to avoid overloading.

• Unpacking
Open the cardboard box, take out
the polystyrene wrapping and
separate it, freeing the projector.
Remove the plastic bag from the
projector and position this on a
horizontal top.

• Packing contents
Besides the projector, the packing also
contains the following accessories:

- Bracket code 173008/001 (1).

- This instructions manual

code 099575 (12).

• Installation
Make sure all the parts for fixing the projector are in a good state of repair.
Make sure the point of anchorage is stable before positioning the projector.

• Minimum distance from illuminated objects
The projector needs to be positioned so that
the objects hit by the beam of light are at least
1 metre (3’3”) from the lens of the projector.

• Minimum distance from flammable materials
The projector must be positioned so that any flammable materials are at least
0.10 metres (4”) from every point on the surface of the fitting.

It is permissible to mount the fitting on normally flammable surfaces.

• Maintenance
Before starting any maintenance work or cleaning the projector, cut off power from
the supply mains.
After switching off, do not remove any parts of the fitting for 4 minutes. After this time
the likelihood of the lamp exploding is virtually nill. If it is necessary to replace the
lamp, wait for another 15 minutes to avoid getting burnt.
The fitting is designed to hold in any splinters produced by a lamp exploding.
The lenses must be mounted and, if visibly damaged, they have to be replaced with
genuine spares.

• Temperature of the external surface
The maximum temperature that can be reached on the external surface of the fitting,
in a thermally steady state, is 100°C (212°F).

• Lamp

The fitting mounts a high-pressure lamp that needs an external igniter.
This igniter is fitted onto the fitting.

- Carefully read the "operating instructions" provided by the lamp manufacturer.
- Immediately replace the lamp if damaged or deformed by heat.
