2.2 Installation Guidlines
 
Rigging & Mounting Guidelines 
C11 and C8v C-series tiles have an IP66 rating and are suitable for use in most indoor and outdoor installations except where water immersion 
could occur. This conforms to the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard 60529. 
The C7 tiles have an IP50 rating and are suitable for indoor use only. 
Use caution when installing the display. C-series tiles weigh 6.4 kg (14.1 lbs)/tile. 
Ensure rigging hardware is able to handle the weight of the entire C-series system with appropriate safety factors. 
External rigging hardware must be properly installed prior to hanging C-series tiles. 
Do not hang more than 25 C-series tiles (10 m) tall with the integral rigging hardware. 
When rigging observe the maximum number of panels that can be hung or floor supported. 
Displays >10 m tall require an auxiliary frame system not supplied by Barco. 
Handle is intended for carrying a single tile only. Do not use for safety, tie-off, climbing, or lifting. 
Power 
Observe the following power guidelines when setting up your C-series display. 
 
The table below indicates min/max power consumption.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
When running typical video content, the duty cycle (average power consumption) is about 30% of 
maximum. See 
 for more details on maximum daisy chain power consumption limits for PDB-5 and break-in cables. 
 
NOTE
 
For installations where a residual current device (RCD) or similar device will be used on the mains power to the display, please take into account that C-
series tiles have an earth leakage of 85 micro-amps per tile. 
 
Data 
Observe the following data limits when setting up your C-series display. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
    
 
Temperature 
C-series installations must take into account the operating temperature of the tiles. The ambient operating temperature for a C-series tile is -20°C to 45°C. 
 
NOTE
 
C-series tiles have an internal temperature sensor that shuts down the tile’s output (brightness is set to 0) when internal temperature is too high. The 
brightness will return to normal when the internal temperature has cooled sufficiently.
