Barco R9801661 TLD+ LENS 0.38 UST 90; 0.40:1 for WUXGA ; 0.43:1 for WQ/4KUHD

Product Overview

The Barco TLD+ Lens 0.38 UST 90 (article R9801661) is an ultra short throw, motorized glass lens for Barco large-venue projector platforms. It delivers a 0.40:1 throw ratio for WUXGA chips and 0.43:1 for WQXGA/4K UHD chips, with a 0.38:1 figure on 0.98-inch 4K devices. This lens is engineered for installations where the projector must sit very close to the screen, such as against-wall or near-screen rigging. It mounts on HDX, UDX, UDM and F-series projectors that accept the TLD+ lens family.

Product Description

As shown in the product image, the TLD+ 0.38 UST 90 is a compact ultra short throw lens designed to fill large screens from minimal projection distance. It supports motorized zoom, focus and lens shift with position memory, allowing repeatable setup across blended or multi-projector arrays. The 0.38 UST 90 is part of Barco's broader TLD+ lens range, which spans wide-angle ultra short throw optics through long zoom lenses up to 7.5-11.2:1.

This lens fits Barco large-venue and rental projectors including the Barco projector and lens collection families HDX-W and HDX-4K, UDX-W/U/4K, UDM-W/4K and the HDF/F-series. For applications needing a slightly longer ultra short throw, consider the sibling TLD+ 0.65-0.85 UST 90 lens. Because the TLD+ mount is shared across these platforms, the lens can be redeployed across a projector fleet without replacement optics.
