Lamp and Filter Synchronized Maintenance
When the lamps and air filter are due for replacement, a
timely message is displayed on screen. The lamps and air
filter are accessible from both sides, so their replacement
can be performed without uninstalling the projector. Like the
lamps, the replacement filter has an approximate 8,000-hour
replacement cycle in Standard mode. This synchronized
replacement is achieved even in tough environments by a
Quad Filter System Plus*, saving maintenance time and cost.
* The Quad Filter System Plus is composed of four pleated electrostatic
filters. This substantial unit is designed to maintain high performance for
a long period of time, requiring air filter replacement only when lamp
replacement is also required. The unit is included with the replacement
lamps.
