Author Topic: ??? on a brand new SLC 45/70 console Michael Rourke Expert Film Handler Posts: 159 From: San Luis Obispo, Central Coast of CA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-09-2002 12:50 PM                     This beauty has two intake fans, one on top of the lamphouse and one on top of the plenum. The one on top of the house isn't mounted on padding and I was wondering if I should remount on some foam padding like in the tips section?  |  IP: Logged Jon Bartow Master Film Handler Posts: 287 From: Massachusetts Registered: Nov 1999 posted 05-09-2002 03:36 PM                     Michael, I service several of Christie's SLC-45-02 (7K console) with the two blowers that you speak of. I have never had any problems with the external blower causing a vibration. Just clean the blades every few months and oil the blower motor every six months and you should be fine.

It would be unusual for you to need to do that on a brand new lamphouse.  |  IP: Logged
