Outstanding Performance and Excellent Mobility
Ideal for a Wide Range of Uses — From Business to Education
The PT-LB3 Series offers superb basic performance, such as a 5,000-hour*1 lamp replacement cycle.
Its Intelligent Power Management function allows resistance to sudden voltage fluctuations.
A network function reduces management tasks with a wired LAN connection, and allows flexible system upgrading.
And an easy setup function enables quick operation for portable use.
This kind of versatility brings efficient visual communication to all kinds of applications.
Enhanced Basic Performance

Management func tion allows the projector to
continue operating even when the power
supply voltage is fluctuated.
The PT-L B3 Series has useful features
such as a w ired L AN network.It is a
mobile projector, but can also be used on
a desktop or mounted to the ceiling.

Lamp Replacement Cycle
and a Resistance to Sudden Voltage Fluctuations
The New Lamp Drive System
Enables a 5,000-hour
Panasonic employs a number of advanced
technologies — including a propr ietary lamp
drive system — that help maintain lamp
performance . This has resulted in a
5,000-hour*1 lamp replacement cycle. It helps
saving operating cost by prov iding longer
usage between lamp replacements.
Intelligent Power Management Function Allows
Resistance to Sudden Voltage Fluctuations
Momentary power outages*4 or voltage drops*5
can cause the projector to shut down,
interrupting the projec tion. The PT-LB3 Series
equipped with the Intelligent Power
Management function controls the power
supply to cope with power fluctuations, to
enable continued projection.

The Daylight View Basic Function
Ensures Clear Images Even in Brightly Lit Rooms
Easy Portability with a Compact,
A4-File-Size Body
The compact body is the size of an A4 file and weighs only about 2.3
kg, while producing a brightness of 3,200 lm*7. Its handy size and
weight make it easy to carry from room to room, or to a client's office
for an on-site presentation. It gives you sharp, clear images wherever
and whenever you need them.

Panasonic's Daylight View Basic technology achieves sharp,
easy-to-see images by clearly reproducing the details in dark image
areas, which were previously
difficult to see in brightly lit
rooms. A built-in sensor
measures the ambient light, and
the Day light View Basic function
adjusts the halftone color and
brightness level according to the
surrounding illumination.
Quiet 29 dB*6 Design Helps to Hold Viewers' Attention
The noise level is as low as 29 dB*6. This helps your audience to keep their
attention on the discussion or on the screen images during quiet scenes.

replacement, and indicate the overall projector status. In addition,
Multi Projec tor Monitor ing and Control Sof tw are is included for
monitoring and controlling multiple Panasonic projectors from a
single PC. The wired LA N terminal is compatible with PJLink™

Top-Panel Lamp Replacement and Side Air Filter
Replacement Simplify Maintenance
Even for a Ceiling-Mounted Projector
The lamp can be accessed through the top panel for easy
replacement, and the air filter can be removed and installed
through the side panel. This eliminates the need to detach the
projector from it s ceiling bracket and greatly simplifies
maintenance. The air filter uses a Micro Cut Filter, which is an
electrostatic filter that employs an ion effect to attract and trap
dust particles with high efficiency.
