Compatible projector models

This hybrid air filter replaces part UX43581 on Hitachi and Maxell projectors including the MP-WU5603, MP-WU5503, MP-WX5603, MP-WX5503, 8960WUSS, 8951WUSS, 8960WSS and 8951WSS. It is intended for owners of those units who need a fresh filter during routine maintenance or lamp replacement.

Installation and inspection routine

The filter slides into the projector without tools, so replacement is straightforward during scheduled servicing. Manufacturers suggest cleaning the filter every three months and swapping it whenever the lamp is changed. A screen warning icon or visible dust buildup on the element signals that replacement is due immediately.

Long-term heat management

A clean filter maintains proper airflow through the optical compartment, keeping internal temperatures stable during extended projection sessions. When the filter clogs, cooling efficiency drops and heat accumulates, which shortens both lamp and projector life. Regular replacement prevents that gradual thermal stress.

Questions about this item

Does the UX43581 filter arrive as a single unit or do I need a separate frame?

The hybrid filter is supplied as one complete unit ready to install; no extra frame or hardware is required.

Which projector models use the UX43581 filter — the 5503 series or the 5603 series?

It fits both the 5503 and 5603 families, covering MP-WU5503, MP-WU5603, MP-WX5503, MP-WX5603 and the 8951 and 8960 Dukane equivalents.

What does the .2500 kg weight mean for handling during a lamp swap?

At a quarter of a kilogram the filter is light enough to change with one hand while the projector is still mounted.
