1. Safety
1.1 General considerations
General safety instructions
• Before operating this equipment please read this manual thoroughly and retain it for future reference.
• Installation and preliminary adjustments should be performed by qualified Barco personnel or by authorized Barco service deal-
ers.
• All warnings on the projector and in the documentation manuals should be adhered to.
• All instructions for operating and use of this equipment must be followed precisely.
• All local installation codes should be adhered to.
Notice on safety
This equipment is built in accordance with the requirements of the international safety standards IEC60950-1, EN60950-1,
UL60950-1 and CAN/CSA C22.2 No.60950-1, which are the safety standards of information technology equipment including
electrical business equipment. These safety standards impose important requirements on the use of safety critical components,
materials and insulation, in order to protect the user or operator against risk of electric shock and energy hazard and having access
to live parts. Safety standards also impose limits to the internal and external temperature rises, radiation levels, mechanical stability
and strength, enclosure construction and protection against the risk of fire. Simulated single fault condition testing ensures the
safety of the equipment to the user even when the equipment’s normal operation fails.
Notice on optical radiation
This projector embeds extremely high brightness (radiance) lasers; this laser light is processed through the projectors optical path.
Native laser light is not accessible by the end user in any use case. The light exiting the projection lens has been diffused within the
optical path, representing a larger source and lower radiance value than native laser light. Nevertheless the projected light repre-
sents a significant risk for the human eye when exposed directly within the beam. This risk is not specific related to the characteristics
of laser light but solely to the high thermal induced energy of the light source; which is equivalent with lamp based systems.
Thermal retinal eye injury is possible when exposed within the Hazard Distance (HD). The HD is defined from the projection lens
surface towards the position of the projected beam where the irradiance equals the maximum permissible exposure as described in
the chapter “Hazard Distance”.
WARNING:No direct exposure to the beam within the hazard distance shall be permitted, RG3 IEC 62471-
5:2015
CAUTION:Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Restricted access location
This product may only be installed in a restricted access location. The definition of a “restricted access location" is a location for
equipment where both of following applies:
• Access can only be gained by SERVICE PERSONNEL or by OPERATORS who have been instructed about the reasons for
the restriction applied to the location and about the precautions that shall be taken.
• Access is through the use of the tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible
for the location.
Why a restricted access location: This is a RG3 product. Based on international requirements, no person in allowed to enter the
projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and the related Hazard Distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible
by creating sufficient separation height or by placing optional barriers. Within the restricted area operator training is considered
sufficient. The applicable separation heights are discussed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 10.
Users definition
Throughout this manual, the terms SERVICE PERSONNEL and TRAINED PROJECTIONIST refers to persons having appropriate
technical training and experience necessary to be knowledgeable of potential hazards to which they are exposed (including, but not
limited to HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRIC and ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY and HIGH BRIGHTNESS PROJECTORS) in performing a
task, and of measures to minimize the potential risk to themselves or other persons. The term USER and OPERATOR refers to
any person other than SERVICE PERSONNEL or TRAINED PROJECTIONISTS, AUTHORIZED to operate professional projection
systems.
The TRAINED PROJECTIONISTS may only perform the maintenance task described in the User & Installation manual. All other
maintenance tasks and service tasks must be performed by qualified SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The DLP Cinema Systems are intended "FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY" by AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL familiar with potential
hazards associated with high voltage, high intensity light beams generated by lasers. Only qualified SERVICE PERSONNEL and
TRAINED PROJECTIONISTS, knowledgeable of such risks, are allowed to perform service functions inside the product enclosure.

1. Safety
To prevent personal injury
• To prevent injury and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before powering the projector or
adjusting the projector.
• Do not underestimate the weight of the projector. The projector weighs ±73 kg ( ±161 lbs). To prevent personal injury a hoisting
tool should be used to lift the projector.
• To prevent injury, ensure that the lens, cooling system and all cover plates are correctly installed. See installation procedures.
• Warning: high intensity light beam. NEVER look into the lens ! High luminance could result in damage to the eye.
•Warning: extremely high brightness projector: This projector embeds extremely high brightness (radiance) lasers; this laser
light is processed through the projectors optical path. Native laser light is not accessible by the end user in any use case. The
light exiting the projection lens has been defused within the optical path, representing a larger source and lower radiance value
than native laser light. Nevertheless the projected light represents a significant risk for the human eye when exposed directly
within the beam. This risk is not specific related to the characteristics of laser light but solely to the high thermal induced energy
of the light source; which is equivalent with lamp based systems.
Thermal retinal eye injury is possible when exposed within the Hazard Distance. The Hazard Distance (HD) is defined from
the projection lens surface towards the position of the projected beam where the irradiance equals the maximum permissible
exposure as described in the chapter "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 10.
• Based on international requirements, no person in allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection
lens and the related Hazard Distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating sufficient separation height or by
placing optional barriers. Within the restricted area operator training is considered sufficient. The applicable separation heights
are discussed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 10.
• The projector shall be installed in a restricted access room equipped with a key or security lock preventing untrained persons
entering the Risk Group 3 use zone.
• Switch off the projector before attempting to remove any of the projector’s covers.
• Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious damage to it and
possible injury to the user.
• Lenses, shields or screens shall be changed if they have become visibly damaged to such an extent that their effectiveness is
impaired. For example by cracks or deep scratches.
• The associated Safety responsible of the unit must evaluate the setup before the unit may be started.
• Never point or allow light to be directed on people or reflective objects within the HD zone.
• All operators shall have received adequate training and be aware of the potential hazards.
• Strictly minimize the number of people who have access to the unit. The unit may never be operated without permission of the
responsible for safety.
• Do not put your hand or any body part in front of the beam.
Do not clean the port window when the projector is switched on.
To prevent fire hazard
• Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
• Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. This
projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and
safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition
of that material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external
surfaces of the projector whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less
than 40 cm (16”) for this projector. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 5 m. Do not cover the projector or the
lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable and combustible materials away from the projector at
all times. Mount the projector in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose
the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use sand, CO2or dry powder fire extinguishers. Never use water on an
electrical fire. Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on genuine
Barco replacement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.
• Ensure no misalignment can occur. Prolonged exposure of wooden walls at close distance (< 20 cm) can represent a fire risk.
After alignment the projector shall be securely mounted to the pedestal.
• Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the projector and to protect
it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the
projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat
register. This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent hot exhaust air from
projector and cooling system to the outside of the building.
• Let the projector cool completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.
To prevent battery explosion
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• For disposal of used batteries, always consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal rules and regulations
to ensure proper disposal.
R5906847 DP2K SLP SERIES 02/06/2017 7

1. Safety
To prevent projector damage
• The air filters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. Cleaning the booth area would be monthly-
minimum. Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing overheating. Overheating may lead
to the projector shutting down during operation.
• The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets.
• If more than one projector is installed in a common projection booth, the exhaust air flow requirements are valid for EACH
individual projector system. Note that inadequate air extraction or cooling will result in decreased life expectancy of the projector
as a whole as well as causing premature failure of the lasers.
• In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
and safety requirements, it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.
• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The
device should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and remove all power
from the projector. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service personnel.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Loose papers or other objects may not be
nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4") on any side.
• Proper operation of the projector can only be guaranteed in table mounting. It is not permitted to use the projector in another
position. See installation procedure for correct installation.
•Special care for Laser Beams: Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as high power
laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror DevicesTM in
which case there is a loss of warranty.
• Never place the projector in direct sunlight. Sunlight on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror DevicesTM in which
case there is a loss of warranty.
• Save the original shipping carton and packing material. They will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For
maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
• Remove all power from the projectors mains terminals before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage
the cabinet. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution.
• To ensure the highest optical performance and resolution, the projection lenses are specially treated with an anti-reflective
coating, therefore, avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. For lens cleaning follow the
instructions precisely as stipulated in the projector manual.
• Rated maximum ambient temperature, ta= 35°C (95°F).
• Rated humidity = 5% to 85% RH Non-condensed.
• An external frame must be used to stack projectors.
On servicing
• Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials
and risk of electric shock.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Attempts to alter the factory-set internal controls or to change other control settings not specially discussed in this manual can
lead to permanent damage to the projector and cancellation of the warranty.
• Remove all power from the projector and refer servicing to qualified service technicians under the following conditions:
- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
- If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
- If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
- If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions since improper adjustment of the other controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.
- If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
- If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
• Replacement parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used original Barco replacement
parts or authorized replacement parts which have the same characteristics as the Barco original part. Unauthorized substitu-
tions may result in degraded performance and reliability, fire, electric shock or other hazards. Unauthorized substitutions may
void warranty.
• Safety check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask the service technician to perform safety checks
to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

1. Safety
1.4 High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)
HD
Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface
unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to
be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD.
Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD
The HD depends on the amount of lumens produced by the projector and the type of lens installed. See next chapter"HD in function
of modifying optics", page 13.
To protect untrained end users (as cinema visitors) the installation shall comply with the following installation requirements: Opera-
tors shall control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at the height that will prevent spectators’ eyes
from being in the hazard distance. Radiation levels in excess of the limits will not be permitted at any point less than 2.0 meter (SH)
above any surface upon which persons other than operators, performers, or employees are permitted to stand or less than 1.0 meter
(SH) lateral separation from any place where such persons are permitted to be. In non-cinema environments where unrestrained
behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential
exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual’s shoulders, within the HD.
These values are minimum values and are based on the guidance provided in IEC 62471-5:2015 section 6.6.5.
The end user must understand the risk and apply protective measures based upon the hazard distance as indicated on the label and
in the user information. Installation method, barriers, detection system or other applicable control measure shall prevent hazardous
eye access to the radiation within the hazard distance.
For example, projectors that have a HD greater than 1 m and emit light into an uncontrolled area where persons may be present
should be positioned in accordance with “the fixed projector installation” parameters, resulting in a HD that does not extend into
the audience area unless the beam is at least 2.0 meter above the floor level. In non-cinema environments where unrestrained
behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential
exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual’s shoulders, within the HD. For example, a sufficiently large
separation height may be achieved by mounting the image projector on the ceiling or through the use of physical barriers.
For applications installed in the USA market the above limits do not apply. The relevant minimum separation height is 2.5 meter (8.2
ft) and the separation width is defined as 1.0 meter (3.3 ft) by the FDA CDRH.

Based on national requirements, no person is allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and
the related hazard distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating sufficient separation height or by placing barriers.
The minimum separation height takes into account the surface upon which persons other than operator, performers or employees
are permitted to stand.
On image 1-2 a typical setup is displayed. It must be verified if these minimum requirements are met. If required a restricted zone
(RZ) in the theater must be established. This can be done by using physical barrier, like a red rope as illustrated in image 1-2.
The restricted area sticker can be replaced by a sticker with only the symbol.

1.5 HD for fully enclosed projection systems
HD
Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface
unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to
be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD.
Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD
The projector is also suitable for rear projection applications; projecting a beam onto a defuse coated projection screen. As displayed
in image 1-3 two areas should be considered: the restricted enclosed projection area (RA) and the observation area (TH).

SW Separation Width. Must be minimum 1 meter.
For this type of setup 3 different HD shall be considered:
• HD as discussed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 10, relevant for intrabeam exposure.
•HD
reflection : the distance that has to be kept restrictive related to the reflected light from the rear projection screen.
•HD
diffuse : the relevant distance to be considered while observing the defuse surface of the rear projection screen.
As described in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 10, it is mandatory to create a restricted zone within
the beam areas closer than any NOHD. In the enclosed projection area the combination of two restricted zones are relevant: The
restricted zone of the projected beam toward the screen; taking into account 1 meter Separation Width (SW) from the beam onward.
Combined with the restricted zone related to the rear reflection from the screen (HDreflection); also taking into account a 1 meter lateral
separation.
The HDreflection distance equals 25% of the difference between the determined HD distance and the projection distance to the rear
projection screen. To determine the HD distance for the used lens and projector model see graphs in chapter "HD in function of
modifying optics", page 13.
HDreflection = 25% (HD – PD)
The light emitted from the screen within the observation shall never exceed the RG2 exposure limit, determined at 10 cm. The
HDdiffuse can be neglected if the measured light at the screen surface is below 5000 cd/m² or 15000 LUX.

2. Getting started
2.1 Installation requirements
Environmental conditions
The table below summarizes the physical environment in which the DP2K SLP-series projector may be safely operated or stored.
Environment Operating Non-Operating
Ambient Temperature 10°C (50°F) to 35°C (95°F) -15°C (5°F) to 60°C (140°F)
Air cleanliness Clean office environment (equivalent with clean room
standard ISO 14644-1 ISO Class 9)
n.a.
Humidity 5% to 85% RH Non-condensed 5% to 95% RH Non-Condensed
Altitude -60 (-197 Ft) to 3000 m (9843 Ft) -60 (-197 Ft) to 10000 m (32810 Ft)
Let the projector acclimatize after unpacking. Neglecting this may result in a startup failure of the Light Pro-
cessor Unit.
Use in high altitude conditions
When 3000 m environmental condition is combined with the highest permissible temperature (35°C ambient), the projector may be
expected to go into warning status. Hence, for high altitude conditions, we advise max 30°C ambient condition (25°C is preferred).
Furthermore, to avoid temperature warnings on laser banks, we advise in high altitude to set cooler fans to 100%.
Main Power requirements
The DP2K SLP-series projector operates from a nominal mono phase power net with a separate earth ground PE.
Projector Power requirements
DP2K-10SLP 200-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, 10 A at 200 VAC
DP2K-8SLP 200-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, 10 A at 200 VAC
The power cord required to connect the projector with the power net is not delivered with the projector. It is the responsibility of the
customer to provide the correct type of power cord. The cross-sectional area of the conductors in the power supply cord shall not
be less than 2.5 mm2(12 AWG), minimum 300 V. Take into account that the cable gland allows a cable diameter from 8 to 13 mm.
To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends that the instrument panel
and cabinet be grounded. In no event shall this projector be operated without an adequate cabinet ground connection.
The AC supply must be installed by a qualified electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes and conduit types
must comply with local codes.
A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated externally to the equipment for removal of the power to the equipment
mains terminals.
WARNING:Disconnect the power to the unit mains terminals for removal of all power from the unit.
The DP2K SLP-series projector does not have a built in UPS unit.
Projector weight
Do not underestimate the weight of the DP2K SLP-series projector. The projector weight approximately 73 kg (161 lb.) without lens.
Ensure that the pedestal on which the projector is installed is capable of supporting the complete load of the system. Minimum 4
adult persons are needed to carry the projector.
Barco offers a pedestal for the DP2K SLP-series projector. This universal pedestal allows for a solid and
easy setup of the projector. The universal pedestal support 19” rack systems. (projector peripherals such as
alternative content switchers, ShowVault, etc.)
