The Optoma ZU650+ is a lamp-less projector with laser phosphor technology, eliminating the need for lamp and filter replacements, providing 20,000 hours of low-cost operation. Featuring an industry unique Multi Color Laser (MCL) Technology on it's light source design, which delivers a wider color gamut while maintaining high brightness.
The ZU650+ is a ProAV installation projector with low-weight, quiet operation and 5 lens options. The ZU650+ is the perfect projector solution for museums, boardrooms, higher education, house of worship and smaller entertainment venues.
Equipped with a variety of inputs, including HDBaseT and HDMI, the ZU650+ allows you to connect to a wide variety of HD devices to easily display your content.
Using the HDBaseT port facilitates easy installations running up to 328' with a single CAT6 cable for: Video, Audio and Control.
Superb image quality is at the heart of every ProScene product design. At every step, commencing with the incredibly reliable, high resolution WUXGA DLP® chip, where the image is initially created, via the laser-phosphor light source, through to the precision optics to focus the image on screen, accuracy and integrity of the image are paramount.
ProScene chose DLP® technology for its image quality and unmatched reliability. The reflective nature of DLP® micro-mirror technology provides highly efficient bright images with great contrast whilst maintaining precise colour accuracy and natural, real-world colour reproduction. For demanding professional applications, the proven reliability of DLP® technology makes it the obvious choice.
Better than full HD resolution
Where detail really matters, the full WUXGA (1920 x 1200) resolution offers 15% more pixels than 1080p and 60% more than SXGA+. This enables unscaled Full HD video and extra detail. Time code information can be displayed onscreen at the same time, perfect for soundtrack recording and video editing where precise timing can be critical.
Precision optics
High quality glass optical elements maintain optimum sharpness and focus uniformity over the entire image. The ProScene insistence on uncompromising optical quality ensures extremely low colour flare and chromatic aberration resulting in a crystal clear, high contrast image
Reliability
All ProScene projectors are designed for continuous 24/7 operation. Only the most reliable, industry proven components are used to ensure superior reliability. This hard-earned “capability” has been meticulously developed over a decade of designing and supporting millions of projectors the world over. The dust-sealed, filter-free design prevents dust and dirt from affecting the system – ensuring optimal image quality with minimal maintenance. ProScene customers can therefore be confident that, as one of the most reliable projector brands in the industry today, Optoma has a reputation for service excellence that is well deserved
Constant brightness
Some installation applications such as control rooms, simulations and museum exhibits do not require the full brightness of the ZU650+. In this case lowering the brightness can extend the laser-phosphor light source life span and “constant brightness” modes can be enabled to keep the brightness more consistent for longer without the need for costly lamp changes.
Enhanced colour gamut
The laser-phosphor light source provides benefits such as a sealed mercury free optical design to prevent dust entering the projector, minimal warm-up and cool-down time, and long life light source operation of up to 20,000 hours with minimal maintenance.
DLP® technology
DLP® technology from Texas Instruments® is widely recognised and acclaimed for its unmatched reliability and long lasting image performance. When combined with high brightness and native contrast ratios, it becomes the obvious choice for demanding applications. Independent testing has proven DLP® to be the most reliable of projector technologies. Whilst other technologies may show image quality decline after only a few thousand hours, DLP® technology can remain unchanged over hundreds of thousands of hours.
Total cost of ownership
For demanding applications the total cost of ownership of a projector is not in the purchase cost but in expensive maintenance and service. ProScene projectors require very little maintenance, have no user serviceable parts inside and no filters that require periodic replacement. The result is low cost, predictable service cycles, enabling planned down time to be minimised.
We are so confident that the ZU650 image colour quality will remain as good as the day you bought it that Optoma will guarantee it for five years.
Installation flexibility
To help meet the seemingly limitless challenges of ProAV installations the ZU650+ provides 5 lens options with motorised zoom and focus to ensure you can get the image size you require. Motorised lens shift helps you get the image exactly where you want it.
There are 5 optional lenses, all of which can be easily adjusted via motorised lens-shift, zoom and focus.
360° and portrait projection capability
Images can be projected over a full 360° range along the vertical axis, including reproduction on a ceiling or floor. The projector can also be placed in portrait mode for applications such as digital signage or for tall thin projection areas.
Quick start-up and shutdown
The ZU650+ features quick start-up and shutdown and reaches full brightness quickly. To maximise energy saving it also includes a ‘pause projection’ feature where the light source can be completely shut off. Unlike conventional lamp based projectors, the laser-phosphor light source requires minimal cool-down time.
ExtremeBlack
In situations where only absolute darkness is good enough, the Optoma ZU650+ has an ExtremeBlack mode to provide total blackout. Perfect for scene changes during live performances where traditionally a mechanical shutter would be used.
Colour matching
The projector has a colour matching system, which combined with accurate measurements can create seamless blends every time.
Edge blending controls
No two projectors are completely identical. When performing complex, or even simple edge-blend projects using multiple projectors, it can be difficult to achieve good results if the images do not match. The ZU650+ incorporates the following features to ensure high quality and consistent results:
Brightness matching
The brightness of a projector will vary throughout its life. To correctly match multiple units, with multiple light source power options to achieve the correct matched brightness level.
HDBaseT
HDBaseT simplifies cabling requirements and reduces installation complexity saving both time and reducing costs.
Projector security
The projector features both a Kensington lock and security bar for enhanced theft prevention.
Custom ID colours
The Optoma ZU650+ is available in black as standard. However, if your project calls for a higher level of customisation, the ZU650 is available in any colour from the RAL colour space system.
