Lifespan
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, you should clean
this product frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in
determining the cleaning frequency.
As a rule, clean this product at least twice a month. Dust build-up reduces
light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to
reduced light source life and increased mechanical wear.
Cleaning the ÉPIX™ Bar 2.0:
1. Unplug the product.
2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.
3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust
collected on the external vents and accessible internal components.
4. Clean all external surfaces with a mild solution of non-ammonia glass
cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
5. Apply a solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens
cleaning tissue.
Wipe any dirt or grime to the outside edge of the surface. Gently
polish the surfaces with the lint-free cotton cloth or lens cleaning
tissue until they are free of haze and lint. Always dry the external
surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, mostly because of heat.
Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in
ideal, single LED conditions. For this reason, using clustered LEDs at
their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs' lifespan. Under
normal conditions, this lifespan can be 40,000 to 50,000 hours.
If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operating temperature by
improving the ventilation around the product and reducing the ambient
temperature to an optimal operating range. In addition, limiting the overall
projection intensity may also help to extend the LED's lifespan.
