Ready-to-install projector lamp

Consistent output over thousands of hours

In normal mode the lamp is rated for 2,500 hours of operation, while economy mode extends the rating to 4,000 hours. Each unit is tested for beam performance, ignition voltage and run-time to meet ISO 9001 manufacturing standards.

Questions about this item

How much heat and fan noise should I expect from a 280 W lamp running all day?

The 280 W NSHA bulb draws its rated power continuously; in normal mode the projector will run its cooling fans at full speed for the rated 2,500 hours, while economy mode drops brightness and lets the fans run quieter for up to 4,000 hours.

Does the lamp ship as a complete module or do I need a separate housing?

It arrives as a fully assembled ET-LAV200 module with the Ushio NSHA 280 W bulb already seated in its housing, so no extra parts are required for installation.

Will this replacement work in an older Panasonic projector that still uses the ET-LAV200 part number?

Yes — the lamp is built to the original ET-LAV200 specification and is manufactured under ISO 9001 quality controls, so it will ignite and run correctly in any projector designed for that module.
