Barco ILD lens 0.5 : 1 (0.8" DMD) - R9803076

Product Overview

The Barco ILD lens 0.5:1 (R9803076) is a fixed ultra-short-throw lens for the Barco I600 4K installation projector platform, covering the I600-4K8, I600-4K10 and I600-4K15. With a 0.5:1 throw ratio on the 0.8" DMD chip, it fills a large image from a very short projector-to-screen distance. This is the lens to specify when the projector must sit close to the wall or screen and a wider ILD zoom lens cannot get short enough. It targets near-wall and confined-room installs where mounting depth is limited.

Product Description

This ILD optic is a fixed (prime) lens rather than a zoom, optimized for the shortest practical throw across the I600-4K series. As shown in the product gallery, it shares the common ILD bayonet interface used across the I600 lens fleet, so it drops into the same motorized lens mount and supports the projector's lens shift, focus and lens-memory positioning. Because the lens sits at the short end of the I600 range, it is frequently chosen for tight spaces where a longer-throw optic would force the projector too far back. For venues that need different geometry, the I600 platform also accepts the ILD lens 0.65-0.8:1 and the wider-coverage ILD lens 1.0-1.4:1. Browse the full range of compatible projectors and optics in the Barco collection. Barco recommends the optional lens support kit (R9803340) where vibration is a concern with this heavier short-throw optic. The lens is supported on Pulse software 2.5.10 and higher.

Key Features

• 0.5:1 fixed throw ratio — delivers a large image from a very short throw distance on the 0.8" DMD I600 platform.
• I600 4K compatibility — designed for the I600-4K8, I600-4K10 and I600-4K15 single-chip laser phosphor projectors.
• Ultra-short-throw design — lets the projector sit close to the screen for near-wall and depth-limited rooms.
• Common ILD bayonet mount — uses the same lens interface as the rest of the I600 ILD lens fleet for fast field swaps.
• Motorized positioning support — works with the projector's motorized focus, lens shift and lens-memory functions.
• Optional lens support — pairs with the R9803340 lens support kit to control vibration on this short-throw optic.
• Pulse software support — supported from Pulse package version 2.5.10 and higher.
• Article number R9803076 — genuine Barco ILD spare optic for installation and AV integration.

Typical Applications

• Near-wall fixed installs where projector mounting depth is limited.
• Auditorium and lecture-hall installations using the I600 4K series.
• Museum, experiential and exhibit displays requiring a short projection footprint.
• House-of-worship and corporate rooms with confined rear-projection or short front-throw geometry.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Which projectors does the ILD lens 0.5:1 fit? It is designed for the Barco I600 4K installation series: the I600-4K8, I600-4K10 and I600-4K15.

Is this lens motorized or manual? The optic itself is a fixed prime; positioning (focus, lens shift and lens memory) is handled by the projector's motorized lens mount.

Does it support lens memory? Yes. Because it uses the standard I600 motorized lens holder, it works with the projector's lens-memory positioning.

Do I need a lens support bracket? Barco recommends the optional R9803340 lens support where vibration may be an issue with this short-throw optic.

Is there a software requirement? Yes, the lens is supported from Pulse software version 2.5.10 and higher.
