Product Overview

The Panasonic PT-REQ12LWU is a 12,000-lumen 1-chip DLP laser projector with 4K Quad Pixel Drive resolution in a white cabinet for fixed installation in mid-to-large venues. The white finish blends into ceilings and bright architectural spaces, while this filter-free large venue laser projector delivers detailed 4K images from a compact 1-chip chassis. Integrators specify the PT-REQ12LWU when a project needs 4K projection, a discreet white enclosure, and low-maintenance laser reliability.

Product Description

The PT-REQ12LWU pairs a 1-chip DLP engine with Quad Pixel Drive to display 4K (3840 x 2400) content at 12,000 lumens from a SOLID SHINE laser light source, with a filter-less, hermetically sealed optical engine rated for 20,000 hours of 24/7 maintenance-free operation. Remote Preview Lite enhances remote monitoring, and Backup Input plus a Multi-Laser Drive Engine add redundancy for live events. It ships without a lens, accepting Panasonic's 1-chip DLP lenses to match throw. Compare the black PT-REQ12LBU, the TAA-compliant PT-REQ12LBUG, or the white 10,000-lumen PT-REQ10LWU.
