Epson launches ‘world’s smallest’ 20,000 lumens projectors
New models in the PU2200U series are 64 per cent smaller and 50 per cent lighter than the EBL20000U, and offer easier installation and set-up, with simplified maintenance.
Epson has released its latest PU2200U range of ultra-lightweight high lumens 3LCD projectors, including what are said to be the “world’s smallest and lightest 20,000 lumens models”.
The new EB-PU2220B/EB-PU2120W projectors are 70 per cent smaller and 50 per cent lighter than their predecessor, the EBL20000U.
The projectors, which also offer easier installation and set-up and simplified maintenance, are designed to be used in large auditoriums, live events, concerts and conference rooms.
The range offers significant environmental benefits including much lower power consumption and significantly reduced packaging requirements with a lower carbon footprint, as the reduced weight and size means the projectors are easier to store, transport and install, saving on warehouse space as well as labour and delivery costs.
The new series comes in 13,000lm, 16,000lm and 20,000lm models, offering WUXGA resolution with 4K enhancement, HDR and advanced installation features. The new models are also compatible with all existing Epson lenses.
In-built processing for PC-free stacking allows for two supported projectors to be stacked to double the brightness without the need for external computerware. Additional features include NFC functionality for simpler installation, enabling communication between projectors and NFC-compatible Android smart devices, even when the projector is off.
The new range also includes improved dustproofing as the hermetically sealed optical engine, and laser light source unit, prevent dust contamination to ensure enhanced durability. The optical engine and light source module are IP5x certified and Epson uses a high-efficiency liquid cooling system to achieve additional reliability.
“We are very excited to announce our latest generation of ultra-lightweight, compact high lumens projectors”, said Massimo Pizzocri, vice president of the video projector sales and marketing division at Epson.
“I am convinced that this new 3LCD display platform will become the industry benchmark for quality and flexibility, not only saving installation time and shipment costs but also reducing environmental impact for the important and growing 20k lumens market segment.”
“As the world’s leading projector manufacturer, we have listened very closely to our customers and we believe this new series of projectors answers the market need for more compact, space-saving, lighter, reliable and versatile high lumens display solutions.”
