Replacement Lamp for Optoma Projectors

The OPTOMA DM161 projector lamp is a complete 185W module with a new Philips UHP bulb pre-assembled in its housing. It is designed for users who need a direct replacement that installs without extra tools or alignment steps. The unit arrives new and ready to fit compatible Optoma projectors.

Suited for Standard Brightness Needs

This lamp suits owners who want a straightforward swap to restore original brightness and colour performance. It is not for users who require a higher-wattage module for larger venues or those who need a lamp rated beyond the stated 3000-hour economy figure. Buyers seeking a bare bulb without housing should look elsewhere.

Rated Life and Operating Headroom

In normal mode the lamp is rated for 2000 hours of operation, while economy mode extends the rating to 3000 hours. The 185W power draw provides consistent output for typical home, classroom or small meeting-room use. Extended daily running beyond the rated hours will gradually reduce brightness until replacement is needed.

Questions about this item

Which Optoma projectors accept the DM161 lamp module with the 185W Philips UHP bulb?

The DM161 lamp module fits Optoma projectors that specify part number SP.8EH01GC01; check your projector's manual or service label for that exact part number before ordering.

Can I reuse the existing lamp housing from an older Optoma projector when installing this DM161 module?

No, this DM161 module arrives as a fully assembled bulb and housing, so the old housing is not needed and should be recycled according to local regulations.

How do I verify the DM161 lamp is operating correctly after installation?

Reset the lamp timer in the projector menu, then confirm the lamp hours count from zero and the image reaches full brightness without flicker or error messages.
