Features
Incredible 20,000 Im of Brightness
Panasonic’s unique Quad-Lamp system, with its new high power UHM Lamps, has helped to make the body extremely compact while providing an astounding 20,000 lm of brightness.
Dynamic Iris For A High 10,000:1* Contrast Ratio
Panasonic’s Dynamic Iris uses a scene-linking aperture mechanism to achieve a remarkable 10,000:1* contrast without lowering its high brightness. This helps to reproduce deeper, richer blacks, and provides images with more detailed textures.
* Full On/Off, with dynamic iris set to “3”.

Detail Clarity Processor 3 Gives Natural Clarity to Even the Finest Details
This unique Panasonic circuit optimises the sharpness of each image, based on the super high, high, medium, and low frequency components of the extracted image information. The resulting images have more natural, lifelike expression.
System Daylight View 2 for Enhanced Colour Perception
This unique Panasonic technology optimises image quality to improve the colour perception of the projected image in bright rooms. With a brightness of 20,000 lm, it provides highly comfortable viewing even in bright lighting, and allows viewers to concentrate easily on the images.
DICOM Simulation Mode*
This imaging mode is similar to DICOM Part 14, which is a medical imaging standard. It reproduces X-ray images with remarkable clarity.
* This product is not a medical instrument. Do not use it for actual medical diagnosis.
Active 3D Projection Capability
The series is compatible with both passive and active 3D projection systems. It combines with either a separate, external 100 / 120 / 144 Hz drive with IR emitter and active shutter glasses, or an active filter and passive glasses, for viewing 3D images.
Tested 3D Glasses Compatible with Panasonic Projectors
Active 3D Projection Capability
Frame Sequential
Images for each of the left and right eyes are transmitted, alternately at the rate of 60 frames per second.
Frame Packing
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame, while the resolution for each remains as it is.
Side by Side
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame, while horizontal resolution is reduced by half.
Top and Bottom
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted in one frame, while the vertical resolution is reduced by half.
Line by Line
Images for the left and right eyes are allocated, to odd numbered lines and even numbered lines.
Simultaneous
Images for the left and right eyes are transmitted by using two cables.
Waveform Monitor Function
When the output level of the source device fluctuates due to the performance of the device or its cable connections, the original black and white levels of the image content cannot be reproduced correctly. With the PT-DS20KE Projector you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings either automatically or manually as you prefer.
Rec. 709 Mode for HDTV Projection
Optimal colour reproduction can be achieved by selecting this mode, compliant with ITU-R Recommendation BT.709, when images from an HDTV source are projected.
Low TCO and an Environmentally Friendly Design
The PT-DS20K Projectors lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) because they have a Lamp replacement cycle of up to 2,000 hours*. Their environmentally friendly design also includes a low power consumption of 2,300W.
* The values given for Lamp replacement cycles are for landscape orientation. The usage environment affects the Lamp replacement cycle.
Four Lamp System Enables Stable, Extended Operation
The Four Lamp system allows the Projector to keep working even if a Lamp should fail. The Lamp Relay mode also operates the Lamps alternately to enable 24/7 projection. Quad, Triple, Dual and Single Lamp modes can be used.
Easy Lamp Replacement
For easier maintenance, you can replace the Lamp from the rear. This makes it easy to replace a Lamp while the Projector is still in the mounting bracket or dual stacked.
Liquid Cooling System Attains a High Level of Reliability
This new liquid cooling system directly cools the DLP™ chip to improve performance and enable operation up to 45 °C (113 °F).* It allows quiet (49 dB) and versatile use while stabilising performance. It also helps to make the body compact and the system is hermetically sealed, so you don’t need to replenish the liquid.
* The operating temperature range is 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F) when the fan control is set to HIGH ALTITUDE MODE (for altitudes from 1,400 m to 2,700 m (4,593 ft to 8,858 ft) above sea level). When the Projector is used with the ET-SFR510 Smoke Cut Filter, the operating temperature range is 0 °C to 35 °C (32 °F to 95 °F), and the Projector cannot be used in places at high altitude.
Eco Filter that Needs No Maintenance for up to 12,000 Hours*
The Eco Filter has an electrostatic Micro Cut Filter that collects minute dust particles with an ion effect. It combines with the dust resistant cabinet to enable long term use even under harsh conditions. Its maintenance cycle of up to 12,000 hours reduces hassle, and the environmental design lets you wash the Filter with water and reuse it.**
* The usage environment affects the Filter maintenance cycle.
** When washing with water, please follow the procedures listed in the operating instructions. Also, we recommend replacing the Filter with a new one after it has been washed and reused twice. If the Filter is not sufficiently clean after washing, replace it with a new one.
Flexible Installation
The wide adjustment range of the powered horizontal / vertical lens shift function can be easily adjusted with the Remote Control. The unit can also be rotated 360° vertically*, to accommodate various installation conditions. The lens-centered design contributes to easy installation.
* A special fixture must be attached to the Lamp case when the Projector is placed at an angle within ±30° (upward / downward) of the vertical.
Multi-Unit Brightness Control
This function automatically corrects the brightness fluctuations that occur over time in the individual Projectors of a multi-screen system. Up to eight Projectors can be controlled by connecting to each other via a hub, and this can be increased to a maximum of 2,048 Projectors by using “Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software Ver. 2.7“.
Multi-Unit Brightness Control
Multi-Screen Support System Seamlessly Connects Multiple Screens
The Multi-Screen Support System optimally adjusts multiple screens: Edge Blending, Colour Matching.
Edge Blending
The edges of adjacent screens can be blended and their luminance controlled.
Colour Matching
This function corrects for slight variations in the colour reproduction range of individual Projectors.
Multi-Screen Processor
The PT-DS20KE Projector can project large, multi-screen images without any additional equipment. Up to 100 units (10 x 10) can be edge-blended at a time.
Geometric Adjustment for Specially Shaped Screens
This function adjusts the image for projection onto spherical, cylindrical and other specially shaped screens. You can make the adjustment easily using only the Remote Control, with no external equipment needed.

Portrait Mode Capability (Option)*
New Portrait mode allows portrait projection with the PT-DS20KE Projector. By mounting the optional ET-LAD510P or ET-LAD510PF Lamp unit and updating the Projector's firmware to MAIN Ver. 2.00 or later, the PT-DS20KE Projector can be installed in portrait orientation with its terminal side surface facing downward. Portrait mode adds more solutions for projection mapping, staging, and other needs.
Note: Please contact your sales representative for information on portrait orientation.
(Contact Information)
* Please contact the sales representative with regard to the frame for portrait orientation. Installation is possible only with the terminal side facing downward. Horizontal rotation and vertical rotation are both limited to 15 degrees. Also, the Lamp replacement cycle becomes 500 hours, and this cycle is affected by the usage environment.
** The ET-LAD510P and ET-LAD510PF cannot be used when the Projector is in landscape orientation.
Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software Ver.2.7
Panasonic’s original Multi Projector Monitoring & Control Software Ver. 2.7 freeware lets you control and monitor multiple Projectors at the same time over a wired LAN.
