Author Topic: Christie Solaria One + Wade Neal Film Handler Posts: 5 From: Tacoma, WA, USA Registered: Aug 2015 posted 02-10-2016 03:56 PM                     We run 4 Solaria One+ machines and I am trying to reach out informally to owners to ask some questions about their experiences with them privately. Anyone interested in finding out what I am interested in can contact me at wade AT grandcinema DOT com Thanks forum!  |  IP: Logged Andrew Thomas Master Film Handler Posts: 273 From: Pearland, TX, USA Registered: Jun 2012 posted 02-10-2016 04:20 PM                     I sent you an e-mail, but I'd like to discuss it here as I'm sure whatever discussion arises could be of help to other users as well!  |  IP: Logged Wade Neal Film Handler Posts: 5 From: Tacoma, WA, USA Registered: Aug 2015 posted 02-10-2016 04:51 PM                     Fair enough - we are getting popcorn(?) oil buildup despite extensive filtering and only one popcorn machine. Our HVAC system is clear of such buildup and it sucks in the same air. Any others? Comparison with other models/makes? I have heard anecdotally that the next model did not have similar problems. Any truth to that?  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-12-2016 10:25 PM                     I've had this before in Christie's. This was in series one CP2000's and ZX's. The only way you'll get rid of that is to exhaust your popper outside the building.

We don't have glass, so it just keeps a constant flow of air blowing out of the projection booth. It quadrupled the amount of time between cleaning the intake filter for the color engines on our Christie 2215. Simple,but effective. I've often wondered if putting a negative ion/air purifier would be worth doing.  |  IP: Logged Yusuf Ardhian Erry Setyatmoko Film Handler Posts: 1 From: Tangerang Selatan, Banten, Indonesia Registered: Mar 2016 posted 04-08-2016 05:35 AM                     Hi everyone, It's also happened in my work place in one of cinema in Indonesia. In some scene of Batman vs. Superman 3D movie, the focus is decreasing. It happens randomly. I'm using BARCO DP2000, MASTER IMAGE XL.  |  IP: Logged
