Panasonic PT-RS11KU 12 000lm / SXGA / 3-Chip DLP™ Laser Projector Brochu - Page 2

Reference Laser Performance That Lasts Longer The 12,000 lm PT-RZ12K 3-Chip DLP™ Series projectors combine class-leading imaging with the practical advantages of Panasonic SOLID SHINE Laser technology: minimal picture quality degradation over long periods in continuous use, 20,000-hour maintenance-free operation*1, flexible installation, failsafe reliability, and a wealth of powerful features for creative visual presentations in large spaces. 3-Chip DLP™ Projectors PT-RZ12K 12,000 lm WUXGA PT-RS11K 12,000 lm SXGA+ 2 3-Chip DLP™ Projection Meets Next-Generation SOLID SHINE Laser Bright and Vivid Picture Quality Combining 3-Chip DLP™ imaging with Panasonic's original SOLID SHINE Laser technology, the PT-RZ12K Series achieves truly stunning picture quality. Two powerful solid-state laser light sources, a heat-resistant phosphor wheel, and three independent DLP™ chips for red, green, and blue ensures class-leading brightness, color accuracy, and contrast. Heat-resistant phosphor wheel ensures high brightness and excellent reliability for long periods. Accurate Color Reproduction The PT-RZ12K Series captures a more accurate Rec. 709-compliant color space than comparable laser projectors. A blue laser ensures greater precision while an expanded color gamut improves white balance accuracy. Eco Filter Extends Replacement to 20,000 Hours*2 The Eco Filter has an electrostatic Micro Cut Filter that collects minute dust particles with an ion effect. It joins with a dustresistant cabinet to enable long-term use even in punishing conditions. A long maintenance cycle of up to 20,000 hours*2 reduces hassle, and the ecofriendly washable filter*3 can be reused, reducing cost and waste. Dustproof for Ultimate Endurance The PT-RZ12K Series has hermetically sealed laser modules, a long-life Eco Filter, and a new air-intake system to extend life and maintain picture quality in locations with dust contamination. SOLID SHINE Laser products exceed rigorous dustproofing requirements for operation in environments containing 0.150 mg of dust per cubic meter*4. Ultra-Durable Laser Optical Engine for Continuous 24-hour Operation Dual Drive Laser Optical Engine uses two discrete light sources grouping laser diodes into modules. A failsafe laser light source redundancy circuit ensures minimal reduction in brightness and color uniformity in the event of laser diode failure, making PT-RZ12K Series ideal for mission-critical applications. Further, brightness decreases gradually and in a linear rather than exponential fashion (as is common to lamp-based projectors) over its 20,000-hour*1 maintenance-free service life. Efficient Cooling System Assures Reliable Operation The PT-RZ12K Series employs a newly developed direct liquid cooling system for the laser light source that features a redesigned air intake and a solid aluminum heat sink to suppress temperature rises. This allows stable operation in ambient temperatures of up to 50 °C (122 °F)*5 while reducing operating noise to just 43 dB. *1 At this time the brightness will have decreased to approximately half of its original level (Dynamic Contrast Mode: 3, Image Mode: Dynamic). Panasonic recommends cleaning or checkup at point of purchase after every 20,000-hour period (approximately). Light source lifetime may be reduced depending on environmental conditions. Replacement of parts other than the light source may be required in a shorter period. *2 Usage environment may affect filter maintenance cycle. *3 Please follow the procedures listed in the operating instructions when washing the filter with water. Replacement is recommended after filter has been washed and reused twice, or if filter is not sufficiently clean after washing. *4 Dustproof tests are conducted to confirm operational effectiveness under conditions with 0.15 mg/m3 of particulate matter (based on tests by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers [ASHRAE ], and the Japanese Building Maintenance Association). Measurements are made using acceleration tests. *5 When operational mode is set to Normal, operating temperature is from 0 °C (32 °F ) to 50 °C (122 °F ), and operating temperature is from 0 °C (32 °F ) to 45 °C (113 °F ) when used in locations from 1,400 m to 4,200 m (4,593 ft to 13,780 ft ) above sea level. When operational mode is set to Eco or Long Life 1/2/3, operating temperature is from 0 °C (32 °F ) to 45 °C (113 °F ). When used with Smoke Cut Filter, operating temperature is from 0 °C (32 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F ). Projector cannot be used in locations over 2,700 m (8,858 ft) with operational mode set to Eco or Long Life 1/2/3. When used with Smoke Cut Filter, the projector cannot be used in locations over 1,400 m (4,593 ft). Light source brightness may decrease depending on operating temperature. When projector is operating at high temperature, brightness will decrease correspondingly. 3
