Sharp NP-PA1505UL – 15,000-Lumen WUXGA Laser 3LCD Projector (No Lens)

Product Overview

The Sharp NP-PA1505UL is a WUXGA laser 3LCD installation projector delivering 14,000 lumens typical (15,000 center lumens), designed for higher education, corporate, and large commercial AV deployments. This professional installation projector shares the PA series architecture with dual HDMI 2.0, HDBaseT, and 3G-SDI inputs, supporting 4K-ready signal processing and complete integration with Crestron, AMX, Extron, and PJ Link control systems. The sealed laser light source offers 20,000 hours of maintenance-free operation, and the no-lens configuration allows integrators to pair the unit with any of the compatible NP-series motorized zoom lenses. The NP-PA1505UL suits conference centers, auditoriums, and multi-purpose rooms where consistent high-output projection is required.

Product Description

Available in black or white cabinet, the Sharp NP-PA1505UL uses a 1.0" 3LCD with MLA display panel for accurate color rendering without the rainbow artifacts common to single-chip DLP projectors. The HDBaseT Repeater enables signal cascading for edge-blending and stacking configurations, and TileMatrix allows up to four projectors to deliver a seamless 4Kx2K display. ProAssist software enables network-based multi-projector calibration and image alignment. Roll-free installation supports ceiling, floor, front, and rear projection orientations, and the motorized lens system (available separately) provides precise remote focus, zoom, and lens shift adjustment after installation.
