Cyclone 840B Ballast Enclosure
Christie Roadie and some Christie Cinema Projectors require a separate Ballast, which is too large
to fit inside the projector enclosure.
Christie allows 100’/30m of DC cable between the ballast and the projector. For outdoor
installations when it is not possible to house the ballast in a convenient equipment room, a
Cyclone 840B ballast enclosure must be used.
As well as the ballast cables there are two DB15 signal cables and one IEC C14 auxiliary power
cable that must be connected between the ballast and the projector.
NOTE: The 840B Ballast enclosure comes with 10’/3m DC pigtails to connect to the Cyclone
projector enclosure. If you are using the 840B you do NOT need to purchase DC cables from
Christie.
