NEC ME361W 235 W Projector Lamp

The NEC ME361W NP43LP is a 235 W replacement lamp module supplied as a fully assembled bulb and housing. It is designed for users who need a direct, ready-to-install light source for compatible NEC projectors. The unit arrives new and requires no additional assembly before use.

Lamp life varies by operating mode

In normal mode the lamp is rated for 5,000 hours of operation. Switching to economy mode extends the rated life to 9,000 hours. Actual runtime will depend on usage patterns, environmental conditions and the projector's built-in power management.

235 W Philips AC bulb determines compatibility

The module contains a Philips AC 235 W bulb, and the housing matches the NP43LP form factor. Buyers must verify that their projector specifies this exact wattage and part number; projectors requiring a different wattage or lamp code cannot use this module.

Questions about this item

Which NEC ME361W lamp version should I choose — OEM from the original bulb maker, NEC-branded OEM, alternative OEM or compatible?

The original-manufacturer OEM matches the factory lamp exactly; the NEC-branded OEM is the same specification under the NEC part number NP43LP; the alternative OEM uses a different bulb maker but meets the same 235W and 5 000 / 9 000 hour ratings; the compatible version uses genuine OEM parts at a lower cost.

What does the 235W rating mean once the lamp is installed in my projector?

It draws 235 watts in normal mode for full brightness and runs for about 5 000 hours; switching to economy mode reduces power and extends life to roughly 9 000 hours.

What interface does the NP43LP module use and what does it limit in practice?

The lamp plugs directly into the projector's dedicated lamp socket, so the only practical limits are the 235W power draw and the 5 000 / 9 000 hour life ratings.
