Lamp Replacement Period

It is time to replace the lamp when:

•The message "Lamp Replace" appears on the screen when projection starts.

The message appears for 30 seconds, and disappears again after 30 seconds have passed.

A message will be displayed.

•When the (Warning) indicator is flashing red at 0.5-second intervals

Flashes red at 0.5-second intervals

•The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate

•The replacement warning message is set to appear after about 1400 hours of lamp use in order

to maintain the brightness and quality of the projected images. If you continue to use the lamp after this period, the possibility of the lamp breaking becomes greater. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if it is still working.

•The warning message appears after about 1400 hours of use, but the actual life of each individual lamp will vary depending on the characteristics of the lamp and on the way it has been used. Some lamps may stop operating before 1400 hours of use, so you should always have a spare lamp ready in case.

•Contact your dealer for a spare lamp.

Replacing the Lamp

•If the lamp stops working and needs to be replaced, there is the danger that the lamp may break when handled.

If replacing the lamp of a projector that has been installed to the ceiling, you should always assume that the lamp is broken and remove the lamp cover very carefully.

•Wait until the lamp has cooled down sufficiently before opening the lamp cover. It takes a further one hour after the cool-down period has finished for the lamp to be cool enough.

EMP-30 specifications

The Epson EMP-30 is a portable projector that has garnered attention for its performance and versatility. Designed for both business presentations and home entertainment, the EMP-30 balances features that cater to a variety of users.

One of the standout characteristics of the Epson EMP-30 is its brightness. It offers a brightness level of 2,500 ANSI lumens, making it suitable for use in both well-lit and dim environments. This feature ensures that images remain clear and vibrant, even under challenging lighting conditions. The resolution of the projector stands at XGA (1024 x 768), which is ideal for standard presentations and displays. This high resolution ensures text and images are sharp, making it easier to engage an audience.

The EMP-30 uses 3LCD technology, which is known for producing vivid colors and consistent image quality. Unlike traditional projectors that rely on a single light source, 3LCD utilizes three separate liquid crystal panels to project red, green, and blue light simultaneously. This results in enhanced color accuracy and a broader color gamut, which is particularly noticeable in presentations featuring detailed graphics or videos.

Portability is another key feature of the Epson EMP-30. Weighing around 2.8 kg, it is lightweight enough to be transported easily between home, office, or educational environments. The compact design makes it user-friendly, allowing for quick setups in various locations.

Connectivity options are plentiful, including VGA, composite, and S-video inputs, enabling compatibility with a wide array of devices such as laptops, DVD players, and gaming consoles. The EMP-30 also features an audio output to connect external speakers for improved sound quality during presentations or movie screenings.

Another notable characteristic is its lamp longevity. The ECO mode extends the lamp life up to 5,000 hours, reducing maintenance costs and the frequency of replacements.

Additionally, the EMP-30 offers convenient features such as automatic vertical keystone correction, ensuring that images are displayed correctly even if the projector is angled. The user-friendly interface simplifies operation, making it accessible for users of all experience levels.

In conclusion, the Epson EMP-30 stands out as a versatile and reliable projector suitable for various applications. With its brightness, advanced 3LCD technology, portability, and user-friendly features, it is an excellent choice for anyone in need of a dependable projection solution.
