Barco Extension tubes 8m - R9801658

Product Overview

The Barco 8m Extension Tubes (R9801658) are coolant line extensions for use with the external coolers on Barco UDX and UDM laser projectors. They extend the distance between the projector and its external cooler to 8 meters. This lets crews position the cooler away from the projector, for example off a flown truss position or out of an audience sightline. The tubes are a direct accessory for the UDX and UDM external cooling system.

Product Description

High-output UDX and UDM projectors can use an external cooler to manage heat, connected by coolant tubing. As shown in the product image, these 8m extension tubes lengthen that coolant run so the cooler does not have to sit immediately beside the projector. This flexibility matters when a projector is flown high on truss while the cooler is placed at floor level, or when the cooler needs to be kept clear of the projection area. The tubes work with the Barco UDX and UDM platforms and their external coolers. They pair with the cooler rigging frame and other accessories across the Barco projection lineup to complete a high-brightness cooling setup. The 8m length suits demanding rental rigs and fixed installs where cooler placement is constrained.

Key Features

• 8m coolant extension — Extends the run between projector and external cooler to 8 meters.
• UDX and UDM compatibility — Designed for the external coolers used with Barco UDX and UDM projectors.
• Flexible cooler placement — Lets the cooler sit away from a flown or sightline-sensitive projector position.
• Direct system accessory — Connects within the Barco external cooling system for UDX and UDM.
• Rental and install ready — Suits staging rigs and fixed installs with constrained cooler locations.

Typical Applications

• Large-venue rental — Placing the external cooler at floor level while the projector is flown.
• Touring — Adapting cooler placement to different venue layouts across dates.
• Fixed installation — Routing coolant to a cooler located away from the projector in permanent venues.
