DANGER!

Unplug from mains before changing the color wheel/gobo wheels!

4.2 Light Source

PHILIPS MSD Platinum 5R

Because of its high internal pressure, there might be a risk that the Discharge lamp

would explode during operation. The lamp emits intense UV radiation which is harmful

to the eyes and skin. The high luminance of the arc can cause severe damage to the

retina if you take a close look at the lamp.

To protect the lamp, always turn off the lamp first (via control panel or DMX controller)

and let the unit run at least five minutes to cool down before switching off the mains

supply. Never handle the lamp or luminary when it is hot.

Do not touch the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with denatured

alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

The lamp generates UV radiation. Never operate the lamp without appropriate shielding.

When lighting up, the lamp operates at high pressure and there is a slight risk of arc tube

rupture. The risk increases with age, temperature and improper handling of the lamp. Do not

use the lamp longer than its lifespan.

Make sure the lamp is located in the center of the reflector for the best projection.

4.3 Change The Lamp

Attention: The entire light path and lens of the luminaire must be thoroughly cleaned before

changing the bulb.

Do not use this lamp more than 2000 hours, using the lamp any longer than its set life could

seriously damage your unit. Periodically checking the lamp running time, when the lamp reaches

the 2000 hour mark, or close to it, we strongly suggest you switch the lamp out. Clear the lamp time

after you have replaced the lamp.

To replace the lamp:

1. Remove the fixture head covers using a screwdriver (Figure 1).

Figure 1

2. Position the head as Figure 2 and remove the lamp cooling fan at the rear of the head.
