High power brightness
5,500lm
Panasonic's DLP™ system projectors have taken
another step forward. Now they produce even
better images while maintaining all of their highly
reliable functions. Their 5,500-lm brightness
delivers crisp, easy-to-see images even in brightly
lit classrooms and meeting rooms, to make
presentations easier to understand. The PT-
DW5100E/DW5100EL can also project wide-screen
images. This allows them to project
images onto a large area
regardless of the
ceiling height.

System daylight view
Wide screen and high-power
5,500-lm brightness
The PT-DW5100E/DW5100EL offers a full 5,500 lumens
of brightness and WXGA wide-screen projection. A newly
developed AC lamp, a more efficient reflector and
a synthetic mirror produce crisp, sharp images even
when projecting images with a wide aspect ratio in
ordinary daytime lighting.
The system daylight view function
uses an image processing circuit to
compensate for the loss of colour
saturation that occurs when light
reflects onto the screen from bright
surroundings. It is especially
effective for producing crisp, sharp
images in dark portions containing
gradation. The function can be
adjusted in three steps.

control
Progressive cinema
scan (3/2 Pulldown)
A unique control technology is
used to maximise the colour
segment areas of the colour
wheel. Compared to conventional
projectors, the brightness
of each colour is increased by an
average of about 15%. This
results in sharper, clearer colour
reproduction.
This interlace/progressive
conversion technology
automatically detects when the
input signal is derived from filmed
material and selects the optimum
progressive processing method to
assure faithful reproduction of the
original image.
New IP
conversion
circuit
The PT-DW5100E/DW5100EL
features a new IP conversion
circuit that produces more
detailed images than our
previous models.
Full 10-bit
picture
processing
The use of a full 10-bit image
processing system provides
smooth tonal expression. For
example, skin tones appear
natural and true to life.
Images are noticeably clearer,
thanks to higher-performance
frame noise reduction, which
lowers image graininess, and
improved MPEG noise reduction,
which suppresses the block noise
and mosquito noise that are
common in fast-action scenes.
3D colour
management system
Compensation provides optimal
levels of colour saturation, hue,
and brightness that were not
possible with conventional
projectors. Colours approach
those of the original image, even
on large-screen displays.
The dynamic sharpness control
circuit adjusts the video signal
waveforms based on the
difference in brightness of
adjacent pixels for a sharp, clear
picture that is relatively
unaffected by signal noise.

•Colour matching function
The Colour Matching function corrects the
subtle variations in colour reproduction
between projectors. Originally developed
''adjustment assist'' software quickly and
precisely optimises images, so the colours
on each screen are uniformly reproduced.
•Edge blending function
This function controls luminance at the
edges where screens overlap. By eliminating
unnatural screen joints, it produces
uniformly attractive multi-screen displays.
•Digital image enlarging
Images are enlarged up to 10 times
(horizontally and vertically) without having to
use any additional devices.
A lens-centered, symmetrical design provides
flexible system layout, eliminating the need for
any special considerations when planning the
installation site.
Lens-centered design
A wide adjustment range of the horizontal/
vertical lens shift assures distortion free
images and adds convenience and versatility.

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-DW5100E/DW5100EL reflects the following ecological considerations.
• No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cabinet.
• Lamp power switching further reduces power consumption.
• Auto Power Save activates standby mode when no signal is input.
Ecology-conscious design
Micro cut filter
A filter in the air intake section traps dust
particles that are 10 microns* or larger. By
capturing approximately 7 times as much dust
as conventional filters, it guards against optical
blocks and reduces the penetration of dust into
the interior to provide
stable operation by, for
example, preventing
drops in brightness.
*10-micron dust = lint,
pollen, etc.
Liquid-cooling system
Panasonic's original liquid-cooling system
directly cools the DLP™ chip, which extends
PT-DW5100E/DW5100EL performance and
attains a high level of reliability. It also enables
operation in temperatures up to 45˚C/113 ˚F
for use in a wider variety of environments, and
maintains a more stable performance even in
harsh conditions while keeping the operating
sound down to a quiet 29 dB*.
*with lamp mode: low
Dust-resistant
optical block
The dust-resistant design of the optical block
helps ensure that projectors with DLP™
technology will continue to deliver crisp, sharp,
high resolution images over an extended
service life.
Micro cut filter
AC lamp
Newly developed AC lamps with full 275
watts of power offer excellent brightness and
greater reliability than other types. A new lamp
drive system also lowers the stress on the lamp
electrodes while the lamps are lit. The new
lamps have a lifetime of approximately 3,000
hours*, which is reassuring for applications
where the projector is frequently used. The AC
lamps also minimise colour irregularities.

* The indicated figure is the maximum value when two
lamps are used in Lamp Low mode, with operating cycles
of 3.5 hours ON and 0.5

recommended that
the mechanical shutter
be used to turn images
off for a short period.]

NOTES ON USE
1. Do not install the projector in locations that are subject to excessive water, humidity, steam, or oily smoke.
Doing so may result in fire, malfunction, or electric shock.
2. 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.
3. The projector uses of high-wattage lamp that becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the
following precautions.
• Never place objects on top of the projector while it is operation.
• Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 500 mm or more around the projector's exhaust openings.
• 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 between
them. These space requirements also apply to installation where only one projector unit is operating at
one time and the other unit is used as a backup.
• If the projector is placed in a box or enclosure, temperature of the air surrounding the projector must be
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.
* Even when the ambient temperature near the intake opening is 40 ˚C/104 ˚F or lower, an accumulation of hot air
inside the cabinet may cause the protective circuit to activate and shut down the projector. Please give ample
consideration to the design with regard to ambient temperature conditions.
4. 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.
5. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short
periods.
• 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.
6. Please clean the filter regularly. As for details, please refer to the operation manual.
