Christie High Performance Xenon Lamp CDXL User manual

At the heart of Christie’s CP Series Digital Cinema projector line
are Christie’s CDXL high performance short-arc Xenon lamps.
These lamps have been optimized for use with the CP Series
Digital Cinema projectors. With increased brightness in the same
form factor as standard cinema grade lamps, CDXL lamps provide
higher output and brightness in a more cost-efficient package.
To get a true representation of color in any professional
environment, you need a truly remarkable light source. Christie’s
Xenon Arc Lamps offer stable color temperature, a wide range
of power levels and excellent color rendition. Christie lamps are
backed by the best warranty in the industry.

To achieve high resolution and high brightness projection for this state-
of-the-art 3D animation, the technical team at Warner Bros. Movie
World installed two high resolution Christie CP2000 projectors in the
main theatre with an uncompressed digital video server in a custom
configuration. The projectors display high resolution stunning 3D
images onto the 15m (49ft) wide Harkness screen.
“The Christie CP2000 projectors are amazing. They’re brilliant with
their true-to-life colors. They’re an absolute pleasure to work with and
are definitely the future of film. So far, they’ve operated without error
for over 500 hours and the Shrek 4D Adventure is now running at 21
shows a day,” says Terence Brown, Group Chief Projectionist, Technical
