Panasonic  PT-DW17k Projector

The PT-DW17K is equipped with the DICOM Simulation Mode* and the Lens Memory adjusts the image size and location in up to three different projection positions. Users can program the mechanical shutter to fade the image in and out during show transitions, and it also has built in Edge Blending, as well as Multi-Unit Brightness Control for projection onto wide screens and surfaces to create an immersive experience.

This device has been designed with an extremely small footprint due to a highly efficient optical design as well as an improved liquid cooling system that makes it possible to keep the noise level to a minimum during operation. Due to its compact size, the PTDW17K total cost of ownership is further enhanced by saving warehouse space and minimizing the cost of shipping from one location to another. The PT DW17k is built to maximize savings with a maintenance-free Eco Filter with a lifespan of up to 12,000 hours, and low-power consumption of 2,300W.

Basic installation flexibility is provided by a comprehensive optional lens selection that supports a wide range of throw distances. 360-degree installation capability enables projection onto floors and ceilings. The projector also boasts high durability with an operating temperature between 32°~113° Fahrenheit. Flexibility and reliability are further enhanced by the projectors’ capability to handle more than 100 input signals. Several available input terminals include HDMI, DVI-D and LAN (RJ45).

In addition, end-users can remotely monitor and operate the PT DW17KE by using Panasonic’s own Multi Projector Monitoring and Control Software and the web browser feature enables users to view and send email alerts from the projector
