Ultra-quiet 5,400/6,200-lumen laser projectors require no lamp, no filter and no maintenance

April 25, 2023 - Sharp NEC Display Solutions of America (SNDSA), a global leader in the projector and display markets, today introduced the next generation in its popular P Series line of entry-level installation laser projectors. The ultra-quiet P627UL and the P547UL offer an increase in brightness with 6,200-lumens and 5,400-lumens, respectively, for clearer images in areas with higher ambient light conditions. These projectors are ideal for corporate board rooms, higher education classrooms, museums, houses of worship, retail and restaurant settings.

The P627UL is the quietest operating projector in the 6,000-lumen LCD laser category. This is due to Sharp/NEC’s patented sealed cooling system, which seals the critical optical components to prevent dust. Because the areas that need to be dust-free are now sealed, the system no longer requires a filter or as much air flow for cooling, which reduces the need for fans. Fewer fans produce much less noise. This nearly silent operation opens new opportunities in quiet applications.

"The new P627UL and the P547UL increase the brightness of the previous generation by 200 lumens while running at a decibel level between a whisper and the rustling of leaves in a tree at a distance," said Ryan Pitterle, Sr. Product Manager, Projectors at Sharp NEC Display Solutions. "Not only are they the quietest option in the entire category, but there are also no filters to change, and because they employ 20,000-hour Lasers, there are no lamps to replace. This means there is no maintenance required during the product’s lifespan. Additionally, we’ve added manual horizontal and vertical lens shifts as well as HDBaseT input, which provides for more flexible installations. These are set-and-forget projectors that are designed to last."

Installations are made easier with HDBaseT input, which provides the ability to run a single cable long distances for video, audio and control. New, more flexible options for installation locations are made possible with a broad 1.6x zoom lens and manual vertical and horizontal lens shift. Now, integrators can save time and money by avoiding obstructions or accounting for room design variations and Tilt-free and Roll-free capabilities open new options for floor, ceiling and portrait projection.

The P627UL and the P547UL are now compatible with ProAssist software support for network-based picture control and geometric correction capabilities, which can create a clear image even if projected on a surface that is not perfectly flat.

As with all Sharp/NEC’s laser projectors, the P627UL and the P547UL are backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty which includes InstaCare, Sharp/NEC’s replacement program. Also included is NaViSet Administrator 2 software, designed to provide remote administrative management and network-based control.
