Epson ELPLW06 – Wide-Throw Projector Zoom Lens

Product Overview

The Epson ELPLW06 wide-throw projector zoom lens is the Wide-Throw #2 interchangeable lens for Epson Pro Series large-venue projectors, with a 1.62–2.22:1 throw ratio on up-to-8,500-lumen models and 1.19–1.62:1 on 9,000- to 20,000-lumen models. This Epson wide-throw lens (V12H004W06) fills large screens from a short standoff and supports sizes from 50" to 1000". With wide lens shift and a native-4K throw range, it is a frequent integrator pick for shallow auditoriums, houses of worship, and projection-mapping rigs.

Product Description

The ELPLW06 delivers a WUXGA/WXGA throw ratio of 1.62 to 2.22 on projectors up to 8,500 lumens, 1.19 to 1.62 on 9,000- to 20,000-lumen models, and 1.15 to 1.57 on native-4K platforms such as the EB-PQ Series. A 1.0 to 1.4x zoom, 27.3 mm to 37 mm focal length, and an F-number of 1.8 to 2.3 round out the optical package, with the lens weighing 6.5 lbs. Wide lens shift—vertical -67% to +67% and horizontal -30% to +30% on up-to-8,500-lumen models—gives installers substantial freedom to position the image off-axis without keystone correction, which is what makes this lens valued in fixed installs and stacked projection-mapping rigs. It is an interchangeable lens for Epson Pro L projectors up to 15,000 lumens and Pro G7000 Series projectors, and it lists native-4K compatibility with the EB-PQ Series. For current laser bodies that accept this lens family, review the Epson EB-PU2010B and the Epson EB-PU1008W, or browse the full Epson projector lineup to confirm fitment. The lens ships separately from the projector.

FAQ

Which Epson projectors does the ELPLW06 fit?
It is an interchangeable lens for Epson Pro L projectors up to 15,000 lumens and Pro G7000 Series projectors, with native-4K compatibility on the EB-PQ Series. Confirm your exact model against Epson's compatibility list before ordering.

How close can the projector sit to the screen?
With a 1.62 to 2.22:1 throw ratio on up-to-8,500-lumen models, a 10-foot-wide image needs roughly 16 to 22 feet of throw; the high-lumen 1.19 to 1.62:1 range shortens that. Use Epson's throw calculator for an exact figure.

How much lens shift does it offer?
On up-to-8,500-lumen models, vertical shift is -67% to +67% and horizontal shift is -30% to +30%, allowing significant off-axis placement before keystone correction is needed.

Is the zoom powered?
The lens provides a 1.0 to 1.4x zoom operated through the projector's lens controls; powered functions depend on the host projector model.

Does it support 4K projectors?
Yes. On EB-PQ Series native-4K projectors the throw ratio is 1.15 to 1.57:1.

What screen sizes does it support?
It supports screen sizes from 50" to 1000" on compatible projectors.

Is the projector included?
No. The lens is sold separately from the projector body.
