Ready-to-install projector lamp module

The Panasonic ET-LAB50 is a complete lamp-and-housing assembly designed for quick replacement in compatible Panasonic projectors. It arrives fully assembled with a new 165 W Philips UHM bulb, so no separate handling of the bare lamp is required. This module suits owners who want a direct swap without specialised tools or alignment steps.

Verify projector model and lamp code before ordering

Confirm that your projector specifies the ET-LAB50 part number, because Panasonic uses different lamp modules across its range and they are not interchangeable. The supplier notes that several versions exist — OEM from the original bulb maker, Panasonic-branded OEM, an alternative OEM source and a compatible third-party build — so check which version your maintenance plan requires. Ensure the projector’s lamp timer can be reset after installation to track the new module’s hours accurately.

Typical thermal and power profile

In normal operation the 165 W lamp draws its rated power and reaches the temperatures expected for a UHM light source of this class. Rated life is 3000 hours in normal mode and 4000 hours in economy mode, giving a clear interval for planning the next replacement. Fan noise will follow the projector’s own cooling curve; the lamp itself adds no moving parts.

Questions about this item

Does the ET-LAB50 module arrive with the 165 W Philips UHM bulb already fitted in the housing, or must I buy the bulb separately?

The module is supplied as a complete unit with the 165 W Philips UHM bulb pre-installed in the housing, so no separate bulb purchase is needed.

How do I decide between the three OEM versions and the compatible version of the ET-LAB50?

The three OEM versions come from the original bulb maker, Panasonic's own supply, or an alternative OEM bulb maker; the compatible version uses genuine OEM parts at a lower cost.

What does the 3,000-hour normal and 4,000-hour economy rating mean for daily projector use?

In normal mode the lamp lasts about 3,000 hours; switching to economy mode extends that to roughly 4,000 hours before replacement is required.
