Cleaning the lamp filter screens
In dirty or dusty environments, the dust filter screens on the lamp module | screen |
and lamp door and in the lamp compartment can become clogged, causing |
|
high temperatures inside the lamp module. These high temperatures can | screen |
impact lamp performance and operating life. Routine maintenance to |
|
remove dust and dirt from the screens lowers the lamp operating tempera- |
|
ture and prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp life you will need to clean |
|
the screens every 250 hours. Lamp screen maintenance may need to occur |
|
more often than 250 hours depending on your installation/use environ- |
|
ment. |

1 Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly. Remove the lamp module. Refer to page 33 for instructions.

essary, use compressed or canned air to clean the screens. Then use a | screen |
cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol to lightly wipe each screen. |
|
After you've wiped each screen, blow away any remaining contami- |
|
nants. |
