proper cooling.

2. Never touch the fixture during normal operation. This can cause severe personal

injuries and/or damage to the fixture.

induce blindness.

5. For safe operation, follow the Installation guide described in chapter three of this

manual. Operating the Impression™ without suited safety aids such as safety

cables or clamps can increase the risk of damage and/or personal injury.

6. Installation should only be performed by qualified and certified personal.

7. When mounting this fixture, use only the original rigging parts included with this

fixture. Any structural modification will void the original manufactures warranty and

may increase the risk of damage and/or personal injury.

1. Head / LED Lens Assembly – The head assembly consist of the main output

lenses, and LED cluster module. A high-velocity variable speed fan is mounted in

the head to aid in the cooling process. The fan is designed to vary the velocity at

different operating temperatures. When the fixture reaches a predetermined

internal operating temperature the fan functions at high speeds. The higher speeds

provide better cooling associated with higher operating temperatures during long

use. When the fixture is operating at a lower temperature the fans operate at low

speed. Be sure to keep all vents clean, blocked cooling vents can shorten lamp life

and reduce the fixtures reliability. For more information on the fan functions see

page 23, section 3.9.7.

2. Arm / Cooling Fan – A high-velocity variable speed fan is mounted in the head to

aid in the cooling process. The fan is designed to vary the velocity at different

operating temperatures. When the fixture reaches a predetermined internal

operating temperature the fan functions at high speeds. The higher speeds provide

better cooling associated with higher operating temperatures during long use.

When the fixture is operating at a lower temperature the fans operate at low speed.

Be sure to keep all vents clean, blocked cooling vents can shorten lamp life and

reduce the fixtures reliability. For more information on the fan functions see page

the event of severer power fluctuations. In the event of fuse failure, always be sure

to replace this fuse with an exact match unless otherwise instructed by an

authorized Elation technician.

Neutrik Powercon adapter included with your fixture. This jack provides main power

to your fixture.
