This allows operation of the LightJet 5000 from most standard AC primary voltages and frequencies available in various parts of the world Power Factor Correction LightJet 5000 meets IEC 1000 3 2 The use of power factor correction reduces harmonic currents to acceptable limits GFI Circuit Breakers Due to the use of electromagnetic interference EMI filters required to meet conducted radio frequency emission standards the system is not compatible with ground fault interrupting GFI circuit breakers Use standard magnetic hydraulic circuit breakers where possible For protection of personnel and equipment the LightJet 5000 must be supplied by an appropriately rated and protected AC circuit Notes 1 Voltage configuration is set at the factory In the event a change is required reconfiguration is performed only by a qualified Cymbolic Sciences field engineer If standard thermal circuit breakers are used normal in private homes and office environments there is a risk of frequent tripping of the 30 amp breaker at power up due to surge current These type breakers are designed to trip at 8096 24 amps for a 30 amp breaker of their rated current See disclosure use or duplication restrictions on the back of the front page 2 12 44888 A System Requirements AC Distribution Circuit The LightJet 5000 requires a dedicated AC distribution circuit meaning a separate branch circuit with an individual circuit protection de

LightJet 5000 is illustrated in Figure 2 5 Room dimensions are a minimum requirement and must not be reduced Notes 1 The Infeed Module is very top heavy and can tip over if pushed the wrong way Avoid personal injury exercise extreme care while moving this module The Outfeed Module is considerably heavier than the Infeed Module due to the addition of pumps and power supplies on its lower frame These additional components change the center of gravity making it less susceptible to tipping while being moved Nevertheless it is possible to tip it so always exercise care while moving this module 3 We recommend that the host computer reside in an adjacent room This allows host operation during periods when the lights must be turned off for media loading or unloading The depth of the assembled machine is less than the sum of the 3 parts because when assembled parts of the input and Outfeed Modules extend into the center module 5 The minimum room size requirement accommodates installation direct operation and serviceability requirements of the LightJet 5000 Any additional equipment increases the requirement by the amount of Space needed to accommodate that equipment See disclosure use or duplication restrictions on the back of the front page 2 6 44888 A System Requirements 487 6 cm 1929 AC Power Connector Air Hose OUTFEED Ne Host INFEED Computer
