Laser Light Source and 3LCD Optical System Create High Brightness and Vivid Color Image
Combining a laser light source with a 3LCD optical system, the ground-breaking VPL-FHZ55 projector generates a powerful 4,000 lumens of color light output at WUXGA resolution. The projector’s light engine uses blue laser as its light source, which excites a phosphorous material that in turn creates white light. The white light is delivered to the 3LCD optical system, which generates constant, vibrant RGB color through a color splitting process. The resulting 4,000 lumen output produces brightness sufficient for a broad range of commercial applications.

High-resolution WUXGA Image
The VPL-FHZ55 delivers an amazing resolution of WUXGA (1920 x 1200), which exceeds Full-HD resolution (1920 x 1080). The VPL-FHZ55 allows projection in a wider display range. More information can be displayed on the screen, so the user can see the whole page without scrolling. Extremely clear and detailed high-quality images are projected, even on a large screen, and native Full-HD images can be projected full screen. The ground-breaking VPL-FHZ55 is the ultimate tool for projecting images in a range of applications requiring exceptional detail.

Installation Advantages

Lens Shift Function The VPL-FHZ55 has a Lens Shift function. Using this function, the position of the projected image can be moved vertically by up to 60% and horizontally from -32% through to +32%. Images can be easily adjusted to the desired settings during installation.

Vertical/Horizontal Keystone Distortion With these projectors, keystone distortion of vertically up to +/- 30 degrees and horizontally up to +/- 30 degrees can be digitally corrected via the on-screen operation menu and/or the Remote Commander™ unit. This enables detailed images to be projected with their correct geometry, even when installation space is limited.

Advanced Geometric Correction Each corner and side can be grabbed and fit squarely to the desired position. This feature is useful when an offset projection is necessary

Tilt Angle Free Enjoy supreme installation flexibility: position the projector freely at any angle, or its side, or even upside down

Edge Blending for Seamless Wide Projection The built-in features enable the installation of multiple projectors to create one large seamless and uniform image.

Good TCO & Energy Efficient

20,000 Hours’ Maintenance-free Operation
Thanks to its laser light source with control technology, long-life LCD panel, and advanced filter system, the VPL-FHZ55 offers up to 20,000 hours* of operation without maintenance or replacement. Virtually zero maintenance requirements and a range of energy-saving features reduce total lifetime ownership costs compared with conventional UHP projectors

Energy-efficient Functions • Auto Dimming Mode The VPL-FHZ55 is equipped with a light source dimming function. After 10 seconds of a static signal feed, the light source dims by approximately 15% which is barely noticeable. If the VPL-FHZ55 is left powered on while not in use, after a set period of time it will automatically detect no change of signal input and will dim the light source to as low as approximately 5% of original brightness to significantly reduce energy consumption

• Auto Light Source Control for Energy Saving The brightness of the light source’s output is automatically adjusted depending on the brightness of the projected image, to avoid unnecessary power consumption. When showing darker images that don’t require high brightness, the light source output decreases.

• Blank (Picture Muting) The VPL-FHZ55 can temporarily disable video signal output. This function can be easily operated with just the touch of a button on the supplied Remote Commander unit. In addition, this function allows blank image projection with low power consumption using light source control technology. • Low Power Consumption with No Input The VPL-FHZ55 automatically detects no signal input and dims the light source to as low as approximately 0% of original brightness to significantly reduce energy consumption. • Hg (Mercury) Free The VPL-FHZ55 laser light source projector is mercury free to provide a more environmentally friendly solution.

Laser Advantage

Instant ON/OFF for Smooth Presentation The VPL-FHZ55 delivers instant on/off. Turn it on and you have immediate full brightness. Turn it off and you’re done. You’re not even limited in the number or duration of on/off cycles. It’s the total convenience that today’s users expect. Constant Brightness Mode for Stable Projection Constant brightness mode allows users to maintain brightness throughout the expected 20,000 hour life by driving the projector at reduced light output. This is useful for applications including digital signage, museums or even classrooms where you want to maintain a consistent visual experience for the audience.
