The new Christie Entero LED is a LED-illuminated, 1-chip DLP product line that features a "zero maintenance" design. The LEDs are rated at more than 50,000 hours- over five years of dependable operation. With no consumable components such as lamps, filters or colour wheels to replace, the Christie Entero LED delivers the ultimate in uninterrupted, 24/7 performance for exceptional reliability and low cost of ownership, says the company.
"The new Christie Entero line of LED-based rear projection modules has no equal in the industry for long life and dependability. They are as close to 'worry free' as you can get in a videowall display solution," remarked Jim Gavloski, director of product management at Christie. "It marks a major new development in reliable, high-performance videowall solutions that are easier to maintain and more economical to operate."
With 600 ANSI lumens of brightness, the Christie Entero LED projection engine is capable of illuminating Christie's 50", 67" and 72" display cube platforms. In addition, these cube platforms feature superior cross prism optical screen technology for higher brightness and wider angles of view. Sealed optics eliminate the need for dust filters, while innovative "heat pipe" cooling technology minimises audible noise.
"Christie brings a depth of industry experience in designing, manufacturing, installing and maintaining every facet of a control room and videowall display," noted Gavloski. "We provide the full range of solutions, from complete videowall and control room set-ups customised to the customers' precise specifications, to the skillful retrofitting of nearly any videowall system in settings where downtime is not an option."
