Benefits of the Quad Filter System Plus
To keep all internal parts clean, the projector design unifies air
intake through just one hole which is equipped with a high-
reliability filter system.
The Quad Filter System Plus consists of four very large, thick
accordion filters. It provides exceptional protection from dust
and dirt, and is a simple system that is easily maintained for
the life of the projector.
Other Features
Picture-by-Picture
With this feature, users
can project two different
images at the same
time, greatly expanding
creative possibilities and
enabling exciting new
applications.
DICOM GSDF Simulation*
The VPL-FH500L is equipped with a new gamma mode, called
DICOM GSDF Simulation. This is ideal for viewing digital
medical imagery for non-diagnostic applications.
* Follows GSDF (Grayscale Standard Display Function) medical standards
for DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine).
* This function is for training and reference only, and cannot be used for
medical diagnosis.
Good TCO and Eco-friendly Design
Long-lasting Lamp
By incorporating newly developed high-performance lamps
and advanced lamp-control technology, the VPL-FH500L
delivers a recommended lamp replacement time of
approximately 8,000 hours.*
* In Standard mode (with two lamps)
Low Power Consumption
The VPL-FH500L offers remarkably low power consumption,
allowing users to make significant savings on their electricity
expenses.
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.
