Latin America. NEC's new MC and ME projector series consolidate the previous entry-level projector series to streamline options for customers. Designed primarily for K-12 education, worship rooms, and small business applications, the five new models offer between 3700 and 4000 lumens and offer XGA, WXGA, or WUXGA resolution.
The new MC series projectors, MC372X and MC382W, replace the models of the popular NEC VE and V series. These models offer a significant upgrade for entry-level projector customers, including increased brightness, better connectivity, network capacity, and longer lamp life. The three new ME series projectors, ME402X, ME372W and ME382U, replace NEC's first-generation ME series models, which offer a longer service life and a wide variety of resolutions.
Each new MC and ME model features LCD technology and a new high-performance lamp. "We are particularly excited about these projectors because lcd technology provides customers with accurate colors, while the lamp-based light source keeps costs down," said Ryan Pitterle, Product Manager at NEC Display Solutions.
The new lamp lasts up to 15,000 hours in Eco mode or 10,000 hours with full brightness. In typical classroom use (up to 8 hours per school day and 38 weeks per year), for example, the light source will last more than 6 years, exceeding the normal projector refresh cycle in the educational setup.
Each MC and ME model includes a standard zoom lens for easy installation. Mc series projectors have a 1.2X zoom lens, and ME series projectors have a 1.7X wide lens for greater installation flexibility. The ME Series lens allows for a greater variety of placement options. This can be beneficial when there are obstructions in the ceiling or when trying to use existing screens, mounts and cable lines. A wide zoom lens can reduce installation costs and ensure sharp images that fill the screen properly.
Designed and built to last, the MC and ME series projectors are backed by NEC's 3-year warranty and include the InstaCare advanced exchange program for the duration of the warranty.
