Sony’s LCD Projector – New Cooling System
Conventional projector cooling systems are not efficient as the lamp is often covered by molded parts which significantly
increases the operating temperature inside the chassis.
At Sony, as a result of extensive R&D efforts and close co-operation with various business partners, we have developed a new
cooling system that dissipates heat from within the projector chassis much more efficiently.
Cooling is not as efficient as the lamp
is covered by molded parts
Heat is dispersed with the relocation of
optical engine components and the
addition of heat conductors
A newly developed cooling fan, designed
exclusively for Sony, disperses heat more
efficiently
Redesigned Air Intake
Cooling air is passed through only one air intake which
contains a filter to trap dust particles. This ensures that only
clean air is being circulated inside the chassis, minimising any
damage that might be caused by impurities and subsequently
improving reliability of the projector. The inclusion of a
larger air filter means cleaning is recommended at the same
time as lamp replacement, greatly reducing the number of
maintenance events compared to conventional projectors.
