Panasonic PT-CX200U OEM Replacement Projector Lamp 275W

What this lamp is and who needs it

This Panasonic PT-CX200U replacement lamp ships as a complete module with a new Philips UHM 275W bulb already seated in its housing. It matches the original ET-LAC100 specification and is built to ISO9001 quality checks for beam performance, ignition, voltage and run-time. The unit is designed for owners of compatible Panasonic projectors who want a direct, tool-free swap when the existing lamp reaches end of life.

Replacing the old lamp and when to upgrade

The module restores brightness and colour accuracy lost as the original lamp ages through its 2,000-hour normal or 3,000-hour economy rated life. A jump is worth it when the projector dims noticeably, colour fidelity drifts or the lamp-warning indicator appears, preventing unexpected shutdown during presentations or lessons. It is not for users whose projector requires a different wattage or housing design.

How it fits into a projector setup

The pre-assembled housing slides into the projector’s lamp compartment without additional tools or alignment steps, freeing the installer from handling a bare bulb. Once seated, the projector’s lamp timer can be reset and the unit returns to full output for another rated cycle. Buyers who need a different connector layout or a lamp for another projector model should verify compatibility before ordering.
