Identify a Christie UST lens: HS and 0.46:1
When a Christie UST lens is described as HS / 0.46:1, start with a photo of its label and the projector model. These details let us review the combination and applicable throw ratio before planning its mounting position.
Identification and scope
- Manufacturer or brand
- Christie
- Reference to identify
- Christie UST HS / 0.46:1; confirm the product code and projector model.
- Location
- Ask about availability and location
You can start with the image you want, date, location and available space even before the final drawing is ready. We’ll review lens and projector identification, measurements and supply options.
Information to prepare this item
- Projector and lens references, actual distance, image size and projection surface.
- Signal resolution and frame rate, geometry and venue lighting conditions.
Confirm the lens and projector combination
Record the lens product code and full projector model, along with labels and proposed accessories. Check both references against Christie documentation before preparing the assembly.
Christie’s data sheets distinguish a UST lens for HS and a 0.46:1 entry for Jazz Series. To select the applicable ratio, check the lens code, projector, and documentation for that combination.
Prepare measurements and placement
| Point | What to record | How to proceed |
|---|---|---|
| Identification | Lens code, projector model and planned accessories | Confirm the combination and gather the applicable documentation |
| Image and distance | Image size and format, surface and measured space | Use the throw data and measurement references for the identified combination |
| Placement and operation | Position, mounting, access, venue light and signal path | Review the assembly and prepare checks according to the manual and site conditions |
Use the throw ratio and measurement reference point specified in the documentation for the identified combination. Then calculate the distance and check the available placement.
Manufacturer references for identifying the assembly
The linked data sheets help compare the code and model. Once the combination is identified, we can review mounting, supports, and preparation using its documentation.
