ULTRAPAR UP1000  
1. INTRODUCTION  
Congratulations! With the BEHRINGER ULTRAPAR UP1000 you purchased a first-class Par spotlight  
mounted in a compact, extremely robust and durable casing and featuring a comprehensive range  
of accessories.  
1.1 Before you begin  
Your ULTRAPAR was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging is designed to protect the  
unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging  
and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred during transit.  
+
If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer  
and the shipping company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement  
may not be granted. Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.  
1.2 Mains connection  
Prior to the initial operation of the spotlight UP1000, a mains plug must be attached to the power  
cord. Please use a commercially available shockproof plug with a minimum power rating of 2.5 A  
(220 / 240 V). The wires of the connecting cable are clearly marked according to their function.  
The spotlight can be operated from  
a
power supply of max. 120  
V
/
5
A
or  
240 V / 2.5 A. The mains frequency must be 50 / 60 Hz.  
+
+
Please note that your ULTRAPAR spotlight must be grounded properly. For your own  
safety, you should not remove or defeat the ground connection of the spotlight or  
power cord.  
Make sure that the spotlight will be installed by qualified personnel only. Proper  
grounding of the installer must be ensured both during and after installation of the  
spotlight, otherwise electrostatic discharge or similar effects might impair the  
performance of your UP1000.  
2. HPL LAMP  
Your ULTRAPAR spotlight should be equipped exclusively with recommended HPL halogen lamps  
made by GE Lighting: Use the models GKV 600 W/230 V (item # 35376) or 575 W/115 V (item #  
47665). Make sure that the HPL lamp matches the supply voltage provided in the location in which  
the spotlight is operated.  
+
If a lamp other than those recommended by BEHRINGER is used, your ULTRAPAR  
may not work in compliance with CE safety standards, which will void your warranty.  
Additionally, this spotlight might infringe a patent.  
+
If the HPL lamp is operated with a voltage surpassing its nominal operating voltage,  
it can be damaged/destroyed or its service life reduced considerably.

2.1 Disassembling the lamp casing / installing an HPL lamp  
Lamps that have been deformed or damaged through heat, must be replaced immediately! Please  
proceed as follows to replace the HPL lamp:  
s Disconnect the spotlight from the mains power supply, and unscrew the thumb screw on the  
rear of the lamp casing  
s Carefully pull out the lamp casing  
s Carefully take the HPL lamp out of its carton, by holding it at its socket:  
(G 9.5 socket).  
from the rear part of the spotlight.  
+
Never touch the glass bulb of the HPL lamp, as this can reduce the lamp’s service life  
considerably. If you touch the glass bulb during installation, wipe it clean with a lint-  
free cloth damped with ethyl alcohol (spirit).  
s Press the lamp socket into the holder inside the lamp casing  
until the HPL lamp is safely  
mounted in place. The entire bottom side of the lamp socket must be in contact with the casing.  
s Remount the casing and connect it to the grounding cable  
coming from the spotlight. Fasten  
the thumb screw until the casing is safely mounted in place.  
3. LENSES  
Your ULTRAPAR spotlight has been delivered with four glass lenses.  
+
The glass pane installed in the spotlight after delivery is used to protect the reflector  
during transit, and must be replaced by one of the four lenses enclosed with the unit.  
Never operate your ULTRAPAR without a lens properly installed!  
The shape of each lens determines the light beam produced by the spotlight:

3.1 Dismounting the lens  
+
The lens gets very hot during operation of the spotlight, so let it cool down sufficiently  
before you attempt to dismount it!  
s Disconnect the spotlight from the mains and wait until it has cooled down.  
s Place the spotlight on a flat and stable surface. Never mount or dismount the lens, while the  
spotlight is fixed to a truss or stand.  
s Remove the protective mesh  
: press its two spring shackles, then pull out the mesh.  
attached to the lens ring.  
s Directly in front of the lens, you will find a movable metal clamp  
Turn the lens ring, until the metal clamp is located on the top side of the spotlight (directly below  
the locking bracket ).  
s Tilt the front side of the spotlight forward by at least 45°.  
s Push the movable metal clamp upward to dismount and pull out the lens  
.
3.2 Mounting the lens  
s Tilt the spotlight forward and turn the lens ring, until the movable metal clamp  
is located on  
the top side of the spotlight (directly below the locking bracket  
).  
s Insert the lens with its rounded side towards the rear. The lower edge of the lens must be  
located behind the projecting elements of the lens ring.  
+
Inserting the lens with its rounded side towards the front does not effect the optics of  
your ULTRAPAR, but will make it more difficult to dismount the lens later on.  
s Press the upper edge of the lens slightly towards the rear, until it locks in behind the metal clamp  
.
s Installation of the protective mesh  
and place it directly in front of the lens ring  
ULTRAPAR for the “feet” of the protective mesh. The two spring shackles must be located  
: Press the two spring shackles of the protective mesh  
. There are two slots in the die-cast casing of your  
directly below the locking bracket  
.
4. COLOR FRAME  
The color frame  
is used to hold the color foils. Please observe the following instructions to  
install the color frame:  
s Detach the locking bracket  
on the top side of the spotlight, by pushing it to the side. Then,  
open the bracket and tilt it towards the rear.  
s Insert the color frame into the frame holders  
and  
, i.e. the outer guiding rail (with stops  
on three sides) on the front side of the ULTRAPAR.  
s Push the locking bracket to the side and move it down until it locks in.

5. CLEANING THE REFLECTOR  
s Disconnect the spotlight from the mains and remove the lamp casing as described in chapter  
2.1.  
s Remove the color frame (chapter 4), the protective mesh and lens (chapter 3.1), so that the  
reflector is easily accessible.  
s Cleaning the reflector: Use oil-free compressed air or a soft, lint-free cotton cloth. Tenacious  
stains can be removed by adding some mild soap water, however, don’t forget to remove all  
soap water remnants as well!  
s Remount the spotlight (see chapters 2.1 and 3.2).  
+
+
Never clean the reflector with commercial window cleaners, as the chemical  
substances contained in these agents can damage the reflective coating!  
Don’t use paper towels or other material with a rough surface to wipe the reflector  
clean, so as to avoid scratches damaging the reflector surface.  
6. SUSPENDED INSTALLATION  
Use the mounting bracket  
to attach your spotlight to a stand or truss. Always use steel screws  
with a diameter of approx. 12 mm to fasten the spotlight. Your UP1000 must be secured with an  
additional safety steel cable  
. Use the steel cable fixed to the spotlight casing (eyelet  
). Once  
the spotlight has been adjusted, it must be secured in place with the locking screw  
.
