High Reliability and
Easy Maintenance
Liquid-Cooling System
In systems with DLP® technology, the micro- scopic mirrors of the DLP® chip turn the light on and off. During the off period, light is directed away from the lens. Handling the heat from this light is a major point in maintaining the long-term performance of projectors with
DLP® technology.Liquid-cooling device
Panasonic’s newly developed liquid- cooling system extends projector performance and attains a high level of reliability.

Dust-Resistant Optical Block
The dust-resistant design of the optical block helps ensure that 3-chip projectors with DLP® technology will continue to deliver crisp, sharp, high-resolution images over an extended serv- ice life.
Dual Lamp System and Lamp Relay Function
The use of two lamp systems increases bright- ness and eliminates the need to interrupt a presentation if a lamp burns out (in dual lamp operation mode). In single lamp operation mode, the lamp relay function greatly extends continuous operating time.
Optional Long-Life Lamp
A long-life lamp that stretches lamp life to 4,000 hours is available as an option. In single lamp operation mode, the lamp lamp relay function allows non-stop operation 24 hours a day for up to 47 weeks without replacing the lamps. The use of UHM™ lamps dramatically cuts operating costs.
Easy Lamp Replacement
The PT-DW7000U-K is designed to allow easy lamp replacement with the projector in its fully mounted condition. The lamp itself is the only

ALight, Compact, 3-Chip DLP® Projector for Large-Venue Use
The PT-DW7000U-K combines a 3-chip system based on DLP® technology with a high-preci- sion optical system developed using our exclu- sive technology. We have dramatically reduced the cabinet size, creating a unit with only one- fifth the volume of conventional large-venue 3- chip DLP® projectors. With a weight of 48.5 pounds (22.0 kg), the PT-DW7000U-K can go places other bulky 3-chip projectors with DLP® technology have never gone before.

Superb Image Quality
Native 16:9 Panels
The PT-DW7000U-K is the world’s first
3-chip DLP® installation projector with 16:9 wide aspect panels. Unique to Panasonic, these panels let the PT-DW7000U-K project wide-screen images without sacrificing the superior image quality provided by DLP® tech- nology. They also fit more information onto a PC screen.

Image Quality from 3-Chip DLP®
Technology
DLP® technology delivers outstanding image resolution. In 3-chip systems with DLP® tech- nology — considered among the world’s most advanced projector engines — a DLP® chip is
allocated to each of the red, green, and blue signals. This gives systems with DLP® technol- ogy superior light utilization for high bright- ness, digital processing for low noise and lin- ear white balance, extended device life for minimal image degradation, and a quick response that eliminates afterimages.
Powerful 6,000 Lumens
In addition to the 300-watt UHM™ lamp, the PT-DW7000U-K incorporates digital and opti- cal technologies that maximize the DLP® tech- nology advantages. They deliver 6,000 Lumens of brightness, offering superior color repro- ducibility.
Astounding 4,000:1 Contrast Ratio with Dynamic Iris
Panasonic’s original Dynamic Iris achieves a dramatically improved contrast ratio of 4,000:1 in the PT-DW7000U-K. Dynamic Iris constantly monitors the input signal, and adjusts the intensity of the light source to match it. This highly advanced function provides high-speed, linear response to changing images with 256- step precision. It also combines with dynamic gamma control to produce deep, rich blacks while preserving the brightness in the lighter portions of dark scenes.
16-Bit Color Depth for Film-Like Natural Image
Applying 16-bit drive to each of the RGB pan- els produces 8 times the level of expression (a total of 24 times for all three RGB panels) of conventional 13-bit drive devices. This system creates extremely smooth tonal expression with approx. 65,000 shades of gradation.
Progressive Cinema Scan (3/2 Pulldown)
This interlace/progressive conversion technolo- gy automatically detects when the input signal is derived from filmed material and selects the optimum progressive processing method to assure faithful reproduction of the original image. It is also compatible with the high-defi- nition 1080i format.
Dynamic Sharpness Control
The Dynamic Sharpness Control circuit adjusts the video signal waveforms based on the dif- ference in the brightness of adjacent pixels for a sharp, clear picture that is relatively unaf- fected by signal noise.
