Sharp NP54ZL – 1.24-2.01 Standard-Throw Zoom Lens for PA1505/PA1705/XP-A201U

Product Overview

The Sharp NP54ZL is a motorized standard-throw zoom lens with a 1.24-2.01:1 throw ratio, compatible with the NP-PA1505UL, NP-PA1705UL, and XP-A201U-B professional installation projectors. This lens covers the standard-throw range most commonly required in corporate conference rooms, classrooms, and mid-size meeting spaces where the projector is at a conventional ceiling-mount distance from the screen. Motorized zoom, focus, and lens shift enable complete remote optical adjustment after installation, supporting efficient commissioning without physical access to the projector.

Product Description

The NP54ZL is the standard-throw option in the NP5x lens series, bridging the short-throw NP53ZL (0.86-1.25:1) and long-throw NP55ZL (1.98-3.95:1). With a 1.62x zoom ratio and 1.24-2.01:1 throw range, this lens accommodates a wide variety of room configurations without requiring projector repositioning. At a 100-inch-wide screen, the NP54ZL positions the projector approximately 8.9 to 14.5 feet from the screen surface, covering most standard ceiling-mount depths in corporate and educational installations. Motorized lens shift allows off-axis mounting with geometric image accuracy.

The NP54ZL is sold separately from the projector body. Both the NP-PA1505UL and NP-PA1705UL ship without a lens, and integrators must specify the appropriate lens based on throw distance and screen size.
