Because of the nature of the extreme heat associated with the Platinum 15R lamp and
the tight nature of the internal optical system it is imperative that the lamp be
replaced every 1400 hours. This is done to protect the internal optical system as well
as prevent accidental lamp explosion, which could lead to hot glass particles falling
from the fixture. Failure to change the lamp within 100 hours of operation will result
in automatic shut down of the fixture’s electronics.
At 1400 hours the display will begin to flash “Replace The Lamp” and the lamp will
flicker for the first five minutes of operation. At this point the lamp has reached the
maximum rated life and should be replaced immediately.After the lamp has flickered
for about five minutes it should strike normally allowing the fixture to be used
temporarily until a replacement lamp can be installed. The fixture will continue to
operate for an additional 100 hours, however the “Replace the Lamp” warning will
continue to flash in the display. Keep in mind that the flicker protection circuitry will
only work for about 100 hours (lamp clock life of 1400-1500 hours). After 1500
hours the fixture will no longer respond to DMX commands and immediately enter
a hibernation mode that will electronically discontinue all fixture functionality with
the exception of a few menu commands. The fixture will continue to enter
hibernation mode until the lamp is replaced and the lamp clock has been reset.
Before replacing the lamp let the lamp cool down, because during operation, the lamp can
reach very high temperature.
During the installation of halogen lamps do not touch the glass bulbs bare handed. Always use a
cloth to handle the lamps during insertion and removal.
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They generate higher temperatures than which the
device was designed for.
For the installation, you need one: PLATINUM 15R
Procedures:
1) Unscrew the 3 screws (A, B, C) on the bottom of the housing, holding the plate where the
lamp is underneath. Carefully remove the metal plate.
2) Insert the lamp counter-clockwise 35 degree into the lampholder, then turn clockwise 35
degree to put it into the right position. Attention: please wrap the lamp with the soft cloth that
comes with the packing, avoid naked hand contact to the lamp directly.
3) Put the lampholder back position after install the lamp, tighten the screw and complete the
installation.
