With an impressive range of standard, wide and short throw models and various
brightness levels, suitable for a wide range of projection applications, NEC M,
U and UM Series Projectors have a model for every application. Incorporating
NEC innovations such as 75% AV Mute, Dynamic Eco Mode and longer lamp life
support as well as all the advanced connectivity they offer the functionality you can
expect for today and tomorrow.
The entry levels is particularly suited to classrooms and small to medium sized
meeting rooms, whilst the higher brightness is ideal for even mid to large size
conference rooms. The wide models are ideal for displaying wider powerpoint
presentations and today’s video media in its native format and the short throw
models provide a exible value short throw solution with virtually no glare and
shadow, ideal for classroom environments.
NEC M, U and UM Series Projectors are also available with special warranty
packages and mounting solutions dedicated to education.
TCO CERTIFICATION
TCO Certication of all NEC projectors is your guarantee of balanced ECO
performance and image quality, with power saving to reduce energy costs and a
lower total cost of ownership together and condence that the NEC ‘Green Vision’
commitment to ECO sustainability and safer productivity has been at the heart of
this product’s development. In addition TCO Certication is your guarantee that the
image you see meets stringent performance criteria.
A NEW ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH TO LAMP BRIGHTNESS
Projectors have traditionally been supplied by default with the lamp set to
maximum brightness, which was usually marked as ‘normal mode’. However, the
average lamp brightness in new projectors has steadily increased over time, and
we have reached a point where using the preset maximum brightness is now
simply unnecessary for most people’s requirements. This was the catalyst for NEC
to change the names of its projector lamp work modes coinciding with the launch
of its new M Series projector range. Rather than having the ‘Normal’ setting being
congured for maximum brightness, and then having two progressively dimmer
‘ECO’ modes, NEC opted to congure its newest projectors so the ‘Normal’ mode
has the equivalent settings of the previous ‘ECO 1’ mode, thereby renaming the
previous ‘ECO 2’ mode to just ‘ECO’ and the previous ‘Normal’ setting to be called
‘High Bright ‘.
By launching projectors with the default lowered lamp brightness, NEC is helping
to reduce operational costs and cut the impact on the environment, without
compromising performance. We would always recommend buying a projector
with a higher maximum brightness than required for normal use. This allows the
brightness to be turned up for those occasions when ambient light is unusually
high, and can even help compensate for the natural deterioration in brightness
over the course of the lamp’s life.
By setting the default conguration to be one that is more energy efcient, we liken
what we are doing to the campaign to encourage people to wash their clothes at
30 not 40 degrees. It’s a simple shift in behaviour but it delivers huge returns in
terms of energy efciency and environmental impact when it becomes a habit
that’s picked up and spreads to people all over the world who use our devices.
