The 4-Lamp Optical System maintains high reliability. And system expansion functions include horizontal/vertical lens shift and a Multi-Screen Support System. These and other features enable flexible installation for a wide variety of applications. PT-EX16K* XGA 16,000 lm * Product numbers vary depending on the market. The product number in North America and Taiwan is PT-EX16KU.The product number in Europe, CIS, Asia (except Taiwan), Oceania,Middle East, and Africa is PT-EX16KE. Bright, Vibrant Large-Screen Images High Reliability for Long-Time Use A Full 16,000 lm of Brightness and 2,500:1 Contrast 4-Lamp Optical System Enables Stable, Extended Operation The 4-lamp optical system uses high-output, 380 W lamps to deliver remarkable 16,000 lm brightness. And the contrast ratio is a high 2,500:1, to ensure bright, crisp, large-screen projection. Even if one lamp goes out during use, the other lamps continue, so projection is not interrupted. Lamp Relay mode also allows long-time, continuous operation. Brightness and Lamp Replacement Cycle Guideline Excellent Colors with Pure Color Control It is inherently difficult for LCD projectors to attain both high brightness and superb color reproduction. For this reason, in addition to the three conventional LCD panels that control the light intensity for the red, blue and green primary colors, the PT-EX16K also features a Pure Color Control function that independently controls the light intensity of yellow coloring. This provides rich overall color expression while maintaining brightness. Basic Concept of the Pure Color Control Independent control of yellow •Projection with priority on brightness •Projection with priority on color reproduction Pure Color Control device Screen Projection lens Lamp Four lamps (Normal) Four lamps (Eco1, Eco2) Two lamps (Normal) Two lamps (Eco1, Eco2) Brightness (lm) 16,000 12,320 8,000 6,160 Maximum lamp replacement cycle (hours)*1 2,000 3,000 4,000 6,000 Highly Durable Optical Engine Ensures Excellent Long-Time Image Quality The LCD panels and polarizers inside the LCD projector’s optical block tend to degrade over time. Their degradation strongly and adversely affects image quality. The inorganic LCD panels and polarizers*2 add durability to the optical block and resist time-related changes, therefore achieving a replacement cycle of up to 10,000 hours. Prism Adverse Dust Effects Prevented by a Long-Lasting Air Filter Pure Color Control device Prism Full 10-Bit Image Processing System The use of a full 10-bit image processing system provides smooth tonal expression. For example, skin tones appear natural and true to life. The use of a large pleated air filter has made it possible to achieve a replacement cycle of up to 5,000 hours.*3 This greatly reduces maintenance hassles. The filter is also replaced from the front, so there is no need to detach the projector from its bracket in ceiling-mounted applications. Optional Smoke Cut Filter Provides Protection from Fine Smoke Particles The projector can be equipped with an optional Smoke Cut Filter ET-SFE16 to prevent the entry of not only dust but also fine smoke particles, such as those used for special effects at events and stage performances. ET-SFE16 Excellent System Expandability for Versatile Installation The Horizontal/Vertical Lens Shift Function and a Variety of Lenses Both zooming and focusing can be done by remote control. The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal/vertical lens shift function assures convenience and versatility during installation. You can also choose from a wide variety of lenses, from short or long focus zoom lenses to fixed focus lenses for rear projection. This makes it possible to install the projector in a variety of locations. Flexible Installation The projector can be rotated 360° vertically for flexible installation. This allows projection from directly above or below, for exciting visual possibilities in art galleries, theaters and showrooms. 360° Corner Keystone Correction Enables Angled Projection All you need to do is designate four points as the corners of the projected image, and this function automatically carries out horizontal and vertical keystone correction. Mechanical Shutter for a Total Screen Blackout The Mechanical Shutter lets you mechanically block the light to completely blackout the screen, and prevents light leakage from the lens. When closing the shutter, the projection image gradually fades out, then gradually fades in when opening, which brings more attractive stage effects. Easy Remote Control and Observation A web browser on a computer connected through a wired LAN system lets you remotely operate projectors and check their status. An e-mail messaging function can also notify you when a lamp needs replacement, and indicate the overall projector status. In addition, Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software is available for monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a single PC. The wired LAN terminal is compatible Basic Concept of the Multi Projector with PJLink™(class1), an open Monitoring and Control Software protocol that is used by many Auditorium Seminar room manufacturers, to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of projectors. Lecture room Classroom Multi-Screen Support System Seamlessly Connects Multiple Screens The Multi-Screen Support System optimally adjusts multiple screens: Edge blending, color matching. •Edge Blending The edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled. •Color Matching This function corrects for slight variations in the color reproduction range of individual projectors. Color matching Edge blending With edge blending PT-EX16K Without edge blending Overlapping image edges Robust Carrying Handles An iron base plate is mounted to the bottom of the main unit. Also, robust carrying handles attached to the base plate are designed for easy carrying of the projector. Top-Panel Lamp Replacement Simplifies Maintenance The lamp can be reached through the top panel for easy replacement. This eliminates the need to detach the projector from its ceiling bracket and greatly simplifies maintenance. Other Features Versatile Interfaces and Illuminated Terminals and Control Panel The wide-ranging terminals include 2 sets of RGB inputs, an HDMI input, and a DVI-D input. Mounting the optional Interface Board ET-MD16SD1 also accommodates HD/SD-SDI signal input. The terminal connection area is LED illuminated, and a backlight is provided for the control panel buttons, ensuring smooth and easy operation in the dark. •Direct Power Off allows the power cord to be unplugged right after use. •Wireless and wired remote control that allows the allocation of up to 64 IDs. •Logo Transfer Software*4 lets you upload any startup logo you want. Ecology-Conscious Design • No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cabinet. • Lead-free glass is used for the lens. • Lamp power switching further reduces power consumption. • RoHS compliant *1 The values above are maximum values when they are used in cycles of being turned on for 2 hours and off for 0.25 hours. When the lamps are turned on and off more frequently, the lamp replacement cycle is shortened.

Doing so may result in fire, malfunction or electric shock. NOTE ON USE 1 This product must not be used in residential areas. 2 This product may cause interference if used in residential areas. Such use must be avoided unless the user takes special measures to reduce electromagnetic emissions to prevent interference to the reception of radio and television broadcasts. 3 The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp under high internal pressure. This lamp may break, emitting a popping sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or extended use. 4 The high-wattage lamp becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the following precautions: • Never place objects on top of the projector while it is in operation. • Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 1,000 mm (39-3/8 in) or more around the projector’s exhaust openings. • If stacking projector units, care must be taken to provide the recommended space between units. These space requirements also apply to installation where only one projector unit is operating at one time and the other unit is used as a backup. • If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, the temperature of the air surrounding the projector must match the operating temperature listed in the specifications table during use. Also, make sure the projector’s intake and exhaust openings are not blocked. Ensure there is sufficient ventilation to prevent hot air from the exhaust openings being recirculated into the intake opening. 5 The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short periods. • The lamp replacement cycle varies greatly depending on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions. • The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use. 6 Due to natural characteristics of lamps, screen brightness may fluctuate. This is not an indication of faulty lamp performance. For more information about Panasonic projectors http://panasonic.net/avc/projector Weights and dimensions shown are approximate.
