Panasonic system projectors have opened another new horizon. Their advanced
imaging technologies have further enhanced the high image quality of the intricate
™
DLP
chip. In anticipation of the trend toward wider screens for PC displays and
TV broadcasts, 4 500 lumens of brightness are able to render vivid images of
wide 16:9 images in a variety of spaces. Original Panasonic technologies, such as
our popular dual lamp system and liquid-cooling system, provide an ultra-reliable
design to meet requests for 24/7* operation.
* Refer to "Operating the Projector Continuously" in the NOTES ON USE section on the back cover.

High 2 000:1
Contrast Ratio
Even though the PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
is a 1-chip DLP™ projector, its liquidcooling system and dual-lamp optical
system team up to give it a brightness
of 4 500 lumens. This enables bright,
large-screen projection even in well-lit
condition.
This high-contrast combines with an
outstanding brightness for crisp, highresolution images in virtually any viewing
environment.
Vivid Colour
Control
A new and unique control technology is
used to maximise the colour segment
areas of the colour wheel. Compared
with our previous model, the brightness
of each colour is increased by an
average of about 15%. This results in
sharper, clearer colour reproduction.

Protecting
Withstands ambient temperatures up to
45˚C, and protects against dust problems.
New Cooling Structure
In order to further enhance the cooling
efficiency, we completely revised the
placement of various internal components and
combined this with our popular cooling system
to enable use in temperatures up to 45˚C. This
allows use in a wider variety of environments,
and keeps the operation more stable even in
harsh conditions.
µCut Filter
(World's First in a High-Brightness Projector*)
*As of June, 2006
A new filter in the air intake section traps dust
particles that are 10 microns*
capturing approximately 7 times*
dust as our previous filters, it guards against
optical blocks and
reduces the penetration
of dust into to the interior
to provide stable operation
by, for example, preventing
drops in brightness.
*1 10-micron dust = lint, pollen, etc.
*2 According to Panasonic in-house data
Liquid-cooling System
Panasonic’s original liquid-cooling system
directly cools the DLP™ chip, which extends
the PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL’s performances
and attains a high level of reliability.

An airflow sensor has been added to the air

the intake airflow due to a clogged filter or other
reasons. Also, a temperature sensor has been
mounted to the exhaust section in addition to
the existing ones at the air intake section and
DLP™ chip.

Web Browser Control/
Monitoring and E-mail Message Alert
Anybody can operate the PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
by remote control or monitor its status over a LAN
network, because it is all done using the computer’s
familiar Web browser. Furthermore, the PTDW5000E/DW5000EL sends an E-mail message to
notify the operator when an error has occurred, or a
lamp needs to be replaced.

Fail-Safe Operation
Projection can still continue even when
a lamp burns out.
Dual Lamp System
The use of the two lamp systems increases brightness
and eliminates the
need to interrupt a
presentation if a lamp
burns out (in dual
lamp operation mode).
Optional Long-Life Lamp
A long-life lamp that stretches lamp life to 4 000
hours is available as an option. In single lamp
operation mode, the lamp relay function allows
non-stop operation 24 hours a day for up to 47
weeks without replacing the lamps. The use of
UHM™ lamps dramatically cuts operating costs.
*The brightness of the long-life lamp is half that of the
normal lamp.

Easy Lens
Replacement
The PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
uses the bayonet system, so
lenses attach and detach with
one-touch ease.
Flexible Angle Setting
The PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL can be rotated
vertically. This means you can install it at any
up-and-downangle
you wish to
accommodate
different installation
conditions.
Multiple Terminals Including DVI-D
The PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL has an array of
terminals-two RGB inputs including a 5-BNC
connector, serial in/out, one S-video inputs, two remote
in, one remote out, DVI-D and control capability-to
support a broad range of projection needs HDCP (HighBandwidth Digital Content Protection) compliant.
Easy Replacement of
Dust Filter and Lamp
Dust filter is replaced from the side and lamps
are replaced from the back panel.
Both of them are replaced very easily even if
PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL is installed.
Control Panel and
Wireless Remote Control
The rear control panel allows for easy
operation when the PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
is set on a desk or floor. A Multi-function
wireless remote control with mouse control
also comes supplied with each projector.*

Other Valuable Features
Mechanical Lens Shutter
A mechanical lens shutter minimises annoying
light leakage when the PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
is on standby or temporarily not in use, such as
during a meeting.
Direct Power Off
Built-in capacitor provides power to cool the
internal parts. This means that you can switch
off the room's main power as soon as the
presentation ends. PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL
doesn't make you wait around and helps
minimise lamp damage.
Anti-Theft Features with
Chain Opening
Anti-theft features help protect the PTDW5000E/DW5000EL from unauthorised use,
including a password protection function and
an operation key lock function that disables
the control buttons on the main unit. It also
features a Kensington lock and an additional
security chain opening.
360˚
The PT-DW5000EL delivers the same
performance as the PT-DW5000E, but
comes without a lens. Combine it with an
optional lens to get the exact performance
you need according to usage and operating
conditions.
Ecology-Conscious
Design
Panasonic works from every angle to
minimise environmental impact in the
product design, production and delivery
processes, and in the performance of
the product during its life cycle.
The PT-DW5000E/DW5000EL reflects
the following ecological considerations.
• Lead-free solder is used to mount
components to the printed circuit boards.
• The non-coated cabinet enables
easy recycling.
• Lamp power switching further reduces
power consumption.
• Auto Power Save activates standby
mode when no signal is input.
• The packing case and operating
manual are made from recycled paper.

The projector uses a high-wattage lamp that becomes very hot during operation. Please
observe the following precautions.
1. Never place objects on top of the projector while it is operating.
2. Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 500 mm or more around the projector's
exhaust openings.
3. Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another for the purpose of multiple (stacked)
projection. When stacking projector units, be sure to provide the amount of space indicated
below between them. These space requirements also apply to installations where only one
projector unit is operating at one time and the other unit is used as a backup.
4. If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, ensure the temperature of the air surrounding
the projector is between 0˚C and 35˚C. Also make sure the projector's intake and exhaust
openings are not blocked. Take particular care to ensure that hot air from the exhaust
openings is not sucked into the intake openings.
Operating the Projector Continuously:
1. If the projector is to be operated continuously 24 hours a day, use the dual-lamp optical
system's alternating lamp operation (lamp changer) function. The projector cannot be
operated continuously 24 hours a day in dual-lamp mode. Allow a minimum of two hours
per day of non-operation time per day if the using the dual-lamp mode.
2. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated
repeatedly for short periods.
• The projector uses a high-voltage mercury lamp that contains high internal pressure.
This lamp may break, emitting a large sound, or fail to illuminate, due to impact or
extended use. The length of time that it takes for the lamp to break or fail to illuminate
varies greatly depending on individual lamp characteristics and usage conditions.
• The brightness of the lamp will gradually decrease with use.
