Quiet, reliable liquid cooling system
Epson’s innovative system uses liquid to cool the LCD chips
directly. The liquid absorbs the heat and is then cooled by a
peltier device, which is then cooled by a fan, thereby keeping
the overall optical engine cool. This system design promotes
greater reliability and enables stable operation in temperatures
up to 113 °F (45 °C). In addition, it offers quiet, unobtrusive
operation and allows for off-axis installation orientations.
C2Fine® technology delivers blacker blacks
C2Fine offers smooth, uniform images with
exceptional contrast for better image quality.
Based on this new phase-compensation technology, light
leakage is eliminated, allowing for the reproduction of blacker
blacks. C2Fine technology is combined with an auto iris, which
allows for a contrast ratio up to 5000:1.
3LCD technology — for quality and color
that’s beyond amazing
Innovative technology with proven reliability
• 3 chips for vibrant, true-to-life color
• 25% less electricity required per lumen when
compared to 1-chip DLP projectors**
• Road-tested reliability from a company
with over 20 years of experience

Precision control
Convenient lens design
With its centered lens design, the PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL
makes installation easy to plan. Positioning the ceiling mount,
screen, and projector can be performed individually and
independent of one another.
Six powered lens options
With a 1.6x standard lens, the PowerLite Pro
Z8000WUNL offers increased placement
flexibility. For even greater flexibility, Epson
offers a total of six lenses with varying ranges
including short, wide, and rear, along with mid-to
long-throw lenses that allow users to choose the
motorized lens most suited for their environment. A quick
release lever allows for a quick, easy lens exchange.
(Lens not included)
Off-axis, flexible installation
The PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL can be rotated 90 degrees
upward or downward with an additional 30-degree tilt operation
for off-axis positioning flexibility. As a result, it can be used
for a wide range of applications, such as projecting on the
ceiling or floor, or as part of a rear-projection system. Epson
technology keeps the projector running without compromising
performance or causing overheating.
Epson lens shift technology
In addition to added reliability and amazing color performance,
3LCD’s industry-leading technology enables the projector to
achieve a wide range of lens shift capabilities. This lens shift
technology enables outstanding installation flexibility with an
incredible range of + or – 70% on the vertical axis and + or –
20% on the horizontal axis. Users can operate the vertical lens
shift function using the remote control, the projector control
panel, or control commands.

Easy access filter
Low cost of ownership
Protect your investment — long-life
electrostatic air filter
The PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL filter is designed to protect
the optical engine, lamp and electronics from small dust
particles that can enter any projector. It has a recommended
10,000-hour filter cleaning schedule. The Epson electrostatic
filter captures particles as small as 3 microns, due in part to
its pleated, expanded design. With one air intake and one
exhaust path, the PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL offers an efficient
airflow system for optimum cooling of key components and
a reduction in dust-related problems. Additionally, it has the
capability to send an e-mail notification out through the Epson
Monitor utility when an increase in temperature is detected,
due to clogging.
Easy maintenance and monitoring
With convenient access to the lamps and filter, the PowerLite
Pro Z8000WUNL makes maintenance easier than ever, even
if the projector is ceiling mounted. The lamp cover is located
on the rear side panel and there are no screws, so the lid can
be removed without any special tools. In addition to easy lamp
and filter replacements, the Z8000WUNL includes features that
make it easy to monitor and control. With EMP Monitor, users
can access advanced status functions over the LAN network.
Quality and reliability

With WUXGA resolution (1920 x 1200), the PowerLite Pro
Z8000WUNL delivers high quality images and crisp, sharp text
without any distortion or scaling. And, it makes it easy to display
more content. In fact, with the Z8000WUNL, the display area
can accommodate two independent, A4-sized windows, side by
side, at the same time. You can also display HDTV content at its
native resolution with quality that surpasses even that of 1080p
devices. WUXGA resolution is ideal for any application requiring
full Hi-Def, including Blu-Ray®content, graphic
intensive programs, educational film slides,
and any application requiring exceptional detail.
Powerful, large venue performance
The PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL combines the
brightness of 6000 lumens color light output and
6000 lumens white light output* with the detail of
widescreen WUXGA resolution, backed by the
