Good TCO & Energy Efficient
20,000 Hours’ Maintenance-free Operation
Thanks to its laser light source with control technology,
long-life LCD panel, and advanced filter system, the
VPL-FHZ700L offers up to 20,000 hours* of operation
without maintenance or replacement. Virtually zero
maintenance requirements and a range of energy-
saving features reduce total lifetime ownership costs
compared with conventional UHP projectors.
* Actual hours may vary depending on usage environment.
Energy-efficient Functions
• Auto Dimming Mode
The VPL-FHZ700L is equipped with a light source
dimming function. After 10 seconds of a static signal
feed, the light source dims by approximately 15% which
is barely noticeable. If the VPL-FHZ700L is left powered
on while not in use, after a set period of time it will
automatically detect no change of signal input and
will dim the light source to as low as approximately 5%
of original brightness to significantly reduce energy
consumption.
When the input signal is unchanged, the unit shifts
into dimming mode
* Light source mode: High. The values are approximate.

• Auto Light Source Control for Energy Saving
The brightness of the light source’s output is
automatically adjusted depending on the brightness
of the projected image, to avoid unnecessary power
consumption.
When showing darker images that don’t require high
brightness, the light source output decreases.

• Blank (Picture Muting)
The VPL-FHZ700L can temporarily disable video signal
output.This function can be easily operated with
just the touch of a button on the supplied Remote
Commander unit. In addition, this function allows blank
image projection with low power consumption using
light source control technology.
