How to read Epson projector model names: two naming systems (US PowerLite/Home Cinema and European EB-/EH-), the letter L — laser, G/Z series, resolution S/X/W/F/U, short throw S, interactive i and Ultra Black UB, using PowerLite L630SU (= EB-L630SU) as an example.

How to read models

PowerLiteL630SU

Prefix · line

Epson has two naming systems. USA: PowerLite / Pro (business, installation), Home / Pro Cinema (home). Europe: EB- (=PowerLite), EH- (=Home Cinema). Same machine: PowerLite L630SU = EB-L630SU; EH-TW9400 = Pro Cinema 6050UB.

Series letter · source

L — laser, 3LCD, rated up to 20,000 hours (PowerLite L630SU) · G-Series installation · Z-Series large venue · TW — home cinema (EH) · LS — home laser. No letter — lamp projector.

Number · brightness

A higher number usually means a brighter or newer model within the series. The logic: L520U ≈ 5,200 lm, L630U ≈ 6,200 lm, L730U ≈ 7,000 lm. Check exact lm against the specification.

Short throw

S before the resolution — short-throw: a large image from a short distance (L630SU). Note: S at the very end — that is the SVGA resolution (EB-S05), not throw.

Resolution

The trailing letter: S — SVGA 800×600 · X — XGA 1024×768 · W — WXGA 1280×800 · F — Full HD 1920×1080 · U — WUXGA 1920×1200. In older G/lamp models WUXGA = WU (G5450WU). The i suffix (Fi/Wi) — interactive.

Ultra Black (home)

UB at the end — Ultra Black: home cinema with higher contrast and deep blacks (Home Cinema 5050UB, Pro Cinema 6050UB).

PowerLite L630SU = Epson · business laser 3LCD · WUXGA · short-throw · Europe: EB-L630SU

Information compiled by students

Epson (est. 1942, Japan) — the world’s No. 1 projector brand for over 20 years running. An industry pioneer: the world’s first LCD projector (1988) and the first projector to display from a computer (1994). It makes its own 3LCD and HTPS panels. Some consider Epson the best projection technology.
