Outstanding High Performance
Compact and Lightweight Body
The XR-40X and 30X/S Series has a compact design that takes up approx. 2/3
the volume of the previous models. The light body weighs 6.4 lbs. (2.9 kg), so
you can easily carry it to your home
theater room to view DVDs
on a large screen or
even bring the projector
along with you to provide
presentations from room
to room by connecting it
to a computer.
DVI Terminal with DLP®System for Full Digital Projection
Full digital projection with the DVI input terminal and DLP®system enables
virtually noise-free images from digital sources. The terminal also complies with
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) to support digital video content
in high-definition.
Multiple Input Terminals
Projectors can be connected to DVD players, cable or satellite boxes, laptop and
desktop computers, HDTV tuners, VCRs and video game consoles.

High-Resolution Seamless Image Comparison
Cutting Edge Technology Provides High-Quality Picture
2200:1 High-Contrast, High-Quality Image (XR-40X/30X)
By utilizing the DLP®optical system and Sharp’s optical technology, the
projectors produce crisp
details and sharper blacks
in black parts thanks to a
2200:1 high contrast
ratio.
This system reproduces
crisp clear details not only
for scenery but even for
letters and graphs,
providing sharper blacks
in black parts.
High-Resolution Seamless Images from DLP®Chip
Using DLP®chip, each pixel is individually composed of one of over a half a
million micromirrors to produce a high resolution, and the micromirrors lie at a
distance of merely one
micron, providing a
seamless finely detailed
picture. Also, high-speed
on/off switching delivers
smooth moving scenes.
3X Speed Colour Wheel
The projectors employ a colour wheel with a 3x speed engine, improving colour
break-up to an invisible level. Also, the non-contact Fluid Dynamic Bearings for
the high-speed rotating
colour wheel axle have a
longer lifespan.
IP Conversion from TrueVision™ Image Processing
TrueVision™ Image Processing provides optimal video performance. The
motion-adaptive scan images produce smooth moving scenes and ensure
smooth natural lines and edges.

Filter-Free Design
The
DLP®
sealed system prevents dust, dirt and smoke from entering core parts of the
optics to a much greater degree. The system also needs no filter and less maintenance,
resulting in lower cost of ownership and longer use.
High-Quality Reliability
Long-Life High-Performance DLP®Picture
With the
DLP®
chip minimally absorbing high-output light, the projectors maintain uniform
colour reproduction capability for a long period of time. Also, the formation of this device
with finely structured mirrors provides stable performance and delivers high-quality
pictures for longer periods. In the XR-40X/30X/30S, the chip contributes to a long
lifespan. In addition,
because there is no burn-in
or remaining afterimage,
the projectors are ideal for
still picture projection such
as for guidance board
applications and projecting
CAD images.

High Brightness
Sharp’s advanced optoelectronics technology maximizes light output, providing
crystal clear images in amazingly high brightness.
Low Fan Noise
The DLP®high-speed colour wheel with non-contact Fluid Dynamic Bearings
together with ultra-quiet cooling fans reduce unpleasant noise, enabling quiet
operation at 29dB in Eco+Quiet mode. The fan noise is so quiet it causes no
disturbance even in meetings or school classes.

Direct Power Off Switching
Direct Power Off lets users immediately unplug the projector and take it from the
location. In addition, it also helps control the power simultaneously for multiple
projectors by using the room’s primary power switch with the auto restart function.
Quick Start
It takes only approx. 3 seconds to project the image.
