i want to make an exhibition with it and keep it on for say 6 hours...
also a load of 10-15 slides would be great
any experience?

The late model Ektagraphics were made to run for hours.
Don't know how you'd repeat 10-15 slides, though.
Whatever you do, run the lamp on low setting--6-8 hours will burn up any slide.
Good luck.

Leica made the best, but even today it will be expensive. The standard for years was the Kodak Carousel. The trays came is 80 and 140. The bulbs and trays are available. I recently purchased 15-20 trays on Ebay. Mine has two light settings, (low and high) but I have never had a burn problem on either setting. They came with a remote device for advancing and reversing. If you can get by with the 80 load tray, I'd use that as the delivery is not as sensitive to slide holder thickness.
Mine is the 850 auto-focus which was used by every University in the country 45 years ago.
Here is bunch from Ebay:

The question is if you need to loop a series of slides, or if you are showing each slide for a longer period of time. For looping you will need a carousel, but with 10-15 slides, you will have a lot of blank spaces.
I used to have little Leitz projector (an earlier pradovit, 60-70's), that took straight trays, but only had manual advance. It was not the brightest projector, but it did have an almost in-audable fan. I used to use it for showing a single image projected for a period of time.
I also have a rollei twin, which also takes straight trays. It auto cross fades each slide. You can set the duration that it shows each slide. It is a great projector, but you would need someone there to set it back to the beginning.

Well, sort of - their best were still in Leitz days. And what the made could be considered the nicest, most silent, fastest changing single projectors for living room use. In the same timeframe Rollei had some dual lens fade-over projectors - even nicer, but more complex and fragile.
Leitz got out of the game of high workload pro projectors before small format projection became popular - all they ever had there was large format. If you want a pro 35mm projector that can survive years of permanent operation, go with Elmo (the brightest and most expensive, by a fair margin) or Kodak (the Stuttgart made AV line had the toughest projectors ever - they also had a line of much less heavy duty US made consumer projectors).
