2.1 Installation requirements
About this chapter
Read this chapter before installing PRESENT series projector. It contains important information concerning
installation requirements for the PRESENT series projector, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient
temperature, humidity conditions, required safety area around the installed projector, required power net, etc.
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type
of screen to use are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.

Environment conditions
Table below summarizes the physical environment in which the PGWX-62L/PGWU-62L/PGWX-62L-K/
PGWU-62L-K projector may be safely operated or stored.
Environment Operating Non-Operating
Ambient Temperature 5 °C (41 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F) -10°C (14°F) to 60°C (140°F)
Humidity 10% to 85% RH Non-Condensed 5% to 90% RH Non-Condensed
Altitude 0 (0Ft) to 3000m (9843Ft)
Cooling requirements
The projector is fan cooled and must be installed with sufcient space around the projector head, minimum 30 cm
(12 inch) to ensure sufcient air ow. It should be used in an area where the ambient temperature, as measured at
the projector air inlet , does not exceed +40°C (+104°F).
Clean air environment
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free ow of clean air into the projectors
ventilation inlets. For installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such
as that produced by smoke machines or similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors
internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to
have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean air supply. Devices or structures to extract
or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a feasible solution then
measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning kit which has been specically designed for cleaning
optical parts, never use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings
and damage sensitive optoelectronics components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector
from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contaminants will culminate in extensive and irreversible ingrained
optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will be noneffective and impracticable. Damage of
this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufacturer’s warranty and may deem the warranty null
and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any repair. It is the
clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne
particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has
been subject to knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.
Main Power requirements
The PRESENT series projector operates from a nominal mono phase power net with a separate earth ground PE.
Note: Barco provides a guarantee relating to perfect manufacturing as part of the legally stipulated terms
of guarantee. Observing the specication mentioned in this chapter is critical for projector performance.
Neglecting this can result in loss of warranty.
