Before replacing the lamp, check the serial number of the replacement lamp bulb (sold separately: DT00511 for CP-S317/DT00521 for CP-X327), then contact your local dealer. Before replacing the lamp, turn off the power, and unplug the power cord, then wait at least 45 minutes, in order to ensure that the lamp is properly cooled. Removing the lamp bulb while it is still hot could cause burns, or cause the lamp bulb to burst.

The LCD projector uses a glass lamp bulb. It is a mercury lamp with high WARNING internal pressure. High-pressure mercury lamps can break with a loud

bang, or burn out, if jolted or scratched, or through wear over time. Each lamp has a different lifetime, and some may burst or burn out soon after you start using them. In addition, when the bulb bursts, it is possible for shards of glass to fly into the lamp housing, and for gas containing mercury to escape from the projector’s vent holes.

Handle with care: jolting or scratching could cause the lamp bulb to burst during use.

If the replace lamp indicator (see "Related Messages" (Vol.2 7 ) and "Regarding the

indicator Lamps" (Vol.2 8 )) comes on, replace the lamp as soon as possible. Using the lamp for long periods of time, or past the replacement date, could cause it to burst. Do not use old (used) lamps; this is a cause of breakage.

If the lamp breaks soon after the first time it is used, it is possible that there are electrical problems elsewhere besides the lamp. If this happens, contact your local dealer.

If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), ventilate the room well, and make sure not to breathe the gas that comes out of the projector vents, or get it in your eyes or mouth.

If the lamp should break (it will make a loud bang when it does), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and make sure to request a replacement lamp from your local dealer. Note that shards of glass could damage the projector’s internals, or cause injury during handling, so please do not try to clean the projector or replace the lamp yourself.

Obey local ordinances when disposing of used lamps. In most cases, it is possible to dispose of used bulbs in the same manner as used glass bottles, but in some cases, bulbs are sorted separately.

Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed.

CP-X327, CP-S317, CP-S317W, CP-X327W specifications

The Hitachi CP-X327W and CP-S317W projectors, along with their counterparts CP-S317 and CP-X327, represent a blend of advanced projection technologies and user-friendly features designed to enhance presentations across various environments.

The CP-X327W is notable for its WXGA resolution (1280 x 800 pixels), making it ideal for high-definition presentations. This model boasts a brightness level of 3,200 ANSI lumens, ensuring bright and vivid images even in well-lit rooms. Its 2,500:1 contrast ratio adds depth to images, making text sharp and graphics pop. The projector features 3LCD technology, which provides accurate color reproduction and reduces rainbow effects often seen in single-chip projectors.

Equally impressive, the CP-S317W stands out with its XGA resolution (1024 x 768 pixels) and a brightness of 3,000 ANSI lumens. Its lightweight and compact design makes it suitable for portability, appealing to users who frequently present on the go. The 2,000:1 contrast ratio enhances visual clarity, making it a solid choice for educational and business settings.

Both models incorporate Hitachi's advanced image-processing technology, which aids in scaling images without significant loss of quality. This feature is particularly beneficial when projecting content from a variety of device sources, from laptops to tablets. The ability to easily connect via multiple ports, including HDMI, VGA, and USB, adds versatility, allowing users to switch between devices seamlessly.

One standout characteristic across these projectors is their energy-efficient operation. With a lamp life expectancy of up to 6,000 hours in eco-mode, maintenance is minimized, which is especially valuable for schools and organizations that aim to lower operational costs.

In terms of usability, both the CP-X327W and CP-S317W feature intuitive menu systems, remote controls, and easy-to-navigate settings, allowing users of all skill levels to operate them with confidence. Furthermore, they include built-in speakers for basic audio needs, although external sound systems are recommended for larger venues.

In summary, the Hitachi CP-X327W, CP-X327, CP-S317W, and CP-S317 projectors exemplify quality and reliability. Their robust features, advanced technologies, and user-centric designs make them suitable options for a variety of professional settings, ranging from classrooms to corporate boardrooms, ensuring effective and impactful presentations.
