PT-DW640ES

High Brightness with High Power AC Lamp

The high efficiency light convergence technology and the colour wheel work together to achieve the high brightness of 6,000 lm for the PT-DW640ES. Clear, crisp images are reproduced even in bright rooms.

RGB Booster Significantly Improves Colour Reproduction

The RGB Booster achieves high image quality with levels of colour reproduction and brightness that make each colour stand out. It combines Panasonic’s proprietary Vivid Colour Control technology with a newly engineered Lamp Modulation Drive System for a 1-chip DLP™ Projector that produces bright and vivid colours.

Vivid Colour Control

This unique control technology optimises the use of the colour segment areas of the colour wheel. It increases the brightness of each RGB colour by minimising the unallocated portions between the colours, to achieve truly vivid colouring.

Lamp Modulation Drive System

With the advanced Lamp modulation technology, the Projector is able to control the Lamp intensity for each of the red, green, blue, and white segments of the colour wheel separately. Because the actual light output is controlled in relation to each colour segment, light usage is optimised and colour balance is obtained without lowering the brightness. This results in bright vivid images with increased colour fidelity.

Detail Clarity Processor Brings Depth and Clarity to Details

This advanced image-processing circuit analyses the video signal frequency range for each scene by extracting data on the distribution of high, mid, and low frequency components, and brings out fine details accordingly. The resulting images have a more natural,
three-dimensional appearance with crisp, clear detail.

System Daylight View 2 for Enhanced Colour Perception

Image details are less clear when a Projector is used in a room with the lights on. Panasonic’s System Daylight View 2 improves brightness perception by adjusting sharpness, gamma curves, and colour corrections. This produces crisper, more stunning images with vivid colours even under bright conditions.

DICOM Simulation Mode*

This imaging mode is similar to DICOM Part 14, which is a medical imaging standard. It reproduces X-ray images with remarkable clarity.

* This product is not a medical instrument. Do not use it for actual medical diagnosis.

Rec. 709 Mode for HDTV Projection

Optimal colour reproduction can be achieved by selecting this mode, compliant with ITU-R Recommendation BT.709, when images from an HDTV source are projected.

Full 10-Bit Picture Processing

The use of a full 10-bit image processing system provides smooth tonal expression.
For example, skin tones appear natural and true to life.

Eco Filter that Needs No Maintenance for up to 12,000 Hours*

The original Eco Filter consists of two Micro Cut Filters (electrostatic filters),a Pre-Filter and a Main Filter, which use an ion effect to collect extremely small dust particles. The Pre-Filter has a honeycomb configuration and the Main Filter is pleated to achieve a large surface area that raises its dust collecting performance. Thanks to these features, the Eco Filter has a replacement cycle of up to 12,000 hours,* which reduces the hassle of maintenance. And, as an environmental consideration, the Filter can be washed with water and reused.**

* The usage environment affects the duration of the Filter.
** When washing with water, please follow the procedures listed in the operating instructions.Also, we recommend replacing the Filter with a new one after it has been washed and reused twice.If the Filter is not sufficiently clean after washing, replace it with a new one

Dual-Lamp System Prevents Image Interruptions

The Dual-Lamp System eliminates the need to interrupt a presentation if a Lamp should burn out (in Dual-Lamp operation mode). The Lamp Relay mode also operates the Lamps alternately to enable 24/7 projector operation.

Cost and Space-Saving Lamp Compatibility

The replacement Lamp unit*¹ can be used with all of the Panasonic PT-DZ770 Series*², PT-DZ6700 Series*³ and PT-DZ570 Series*⁴ Projectors. This reduces the number of Lamp types that need to be kept in stock when multiple Projectors are used.

Liquid Cooling System Attains a High Level of Reliability

Panasonic's unique liquid cooling system directly cools the DLP™ chip to improve performance and enable operation up to 45°C (113°F).* This allows use in a wider variety of environments, while stabilising performance and keeping the unit quiet even in harsh conditions. It also contributes to realising the compact body.
Plus, Panasonic’s liquid cooling system is hermetically sealed, so you don’t need to replenish the liquid.

* The operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) when the fan control is set to High Altitude mode (for altitudes from 1,400 m to 2,700 m (4,593 ft to 8,858 ft) above sea level). Also, if the ambient temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F) (35°C (95°F) in High Altitude mode) when the Projector is being used with Lamp Select set to Dual and Lamp Power set to High, the light output may be reduced approximately 20% to protect the Projector.

Flexible Installation

The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal / vertical lens shift function assures convenience and versatility during installation. It lets you easily make adjustments with the Remote Control. The unit can also be rotated 360 degrees vertically. This means you can install it at any angle you want, to accommodate different installation conditions.

Side-by-Side Function* (PT-DZ680E / PT-DW640ES)

The PT-DZ680E and PT-DW640ES can simultaneously display images from two sources onto a single screen. For example, you can display a PC image on the left and a video image on the right.
Taking advantage of the wide-screen projection, this function gives you a host of new application possibilities to explore.

* This function is not effective for some source combinations

Versatile System Configurations Match a Variety of Applications

The wide-ranging terminals include 2 sets of RGB inputs (compatible with Y/PB/PR signals), an HDMI input, and a DVI-D input. A serial input/output terminal (RS-232C compliant) that allows remote operation from a PC, similar to that of a wireless Remote Control, and a remote terminal for input switching by contact control and standby ON/OFF operation also make it possible to configure a remote operation system.

Easy Remote Monitoring and Control over a LAN

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 with PJLink™ (class1), an open protocol that is used by many manufacturers, to enable integrated control of systems that contain different brands of Projectors.
