Wide Format Projection

The 3M SCP740 Projector is a short throw projector. It is capable of projecting a 60 inch projection screen from only 35 inches. The short throw benefit allows the projector to be mounted very close to the screen, and it eliminates the shadow effect and light from the projector from blinding you. It was the first high brightness, DLP, super close projector launched, and features Brilliant Color, DVI-D connectivity, an RJ-45 Ethernet connection and an integrated wind tunnel design that minimizes heat and fan noise. The 3M SCP740 is a great choice to replace the traditional ceiling mount projectors and its fully integrated connectivity makes it the perfect tabletop media hub. The wide-format WXGA short-throw projector is ideal to match the latest XGA notebooks and popular video formats. It projects a 78" diagonal image with SCP wall mount. The 3M Super Close Projection System SCP740 is your perfect solution.

Vikuiti™ Super Close Projection by 3M

Versatility for Challenging Environments

Traditional projection technology requires projecting on to a screen from a distance – creating distracting shadow interference.When wall mounted, the 3M SCP740 virtually eliminates shadow interference with Vikuiti Super Close Projection by 3M.

This 3M innovation enables SCP projectors to deliver large, brilliant images from very close to the screen. In fact, the SCP740 can project from that very short distance away than that of traditional projectors can only show an image of that size from about 10 feet away.

Additionally, because the projector light is offset behind the teacher, there are no eye glare problems or teacher shadows on the projected image.

Harnessing the power of light, Vikuiti Super Close Projection delivers exceptionally large, brilliant images from very close to the screen. The 3M SCP740 Projection System utilizes the Superior Contrast, Focus, Brightness and Uniformity of DLP Projection.

Virtually eliminate shadows with the 3M SCP740 projector. Traditional presentations require projecting onto a screen from a distance - creating the probability of shadow interference.The 3M SCP740 projection system virtually eliminates shadow interference with its unique wall mount feature.

High Brightness, Highest Resolution in the SCP700 Series

The first high brightness WXGA short through projector in the market. Its WXGA resolution matches the latest wide screen notebooks and popular video formats. SCP740 Super Close Projector can project up to 75" maximum image size, ideal projection size for full mount whiteboards or the new WXGA interactive whiteboards.

For the ideal projected image to match the latest in WXGA notebooks and popular video formats, the 3M Super Close Projection System SCP740 is the solution you need.

The first high brightness, WXGA projector to be available with super close projection technology, the SCP740 has the benefits of DLP™, Brilliant Color™ DVI-D connectivity and an integrated wind tunnel for fan noise reduction. Works better than traditional ceiling mounted projectors because the extreme off-axis short throw reduces light in the presenter’s eyes and the full connectivity makes it the perfect tabletop media hub tool!

This leading-edge digital-imaging technology provides superior image contrast, focus, brightness and uniformity.

Care is Needed when Disposing Lamp

Fluorescent lamps will last four to five times more than incandescent bulbs. These lamps are beneficial as they reduce the need for power plants to burn fossil fuels to generate electricity, reduce the release of emissions including mercury, carbon dioxide and other pollutants that affect global warming.

Fluorescent lamps reduce solid waste, since they last longer. The incandescent or halogen lamps have a short life and require frequent replacement. The lamps used in Hitachi projectors have a long life.

These energy-efficient lighting products such as the fluorescent lamps, CFLs, and the high intensity discharge (HID) lamps contain small amounts of mercury.

The mercury remains inside the lamp and doesn't hurt the environment unless the lamp is broken. This mainly happens at the end of its life. The lamp is mostly broken when it is thrown in a garbage truck or a dumpster; thereby releasing mercury.

These lamps are not a major source of mercury pollution, but the improper disposal of large numbers of them adds mercury to the environment. Mercury is also released into the environment by burning hazardous wastes or incineration of disposed materials. 40% of man-made mercury emissions is from fossil-fuel burning power plants.

To prevent the release of mercury from the lamps, it is better to recycle them and not dispose them in the solid waste. Recycling lamps helps to capture the mercury, and it can be reused.

The US Environmental Protection Agency has special regulations for the mercury-containing lamps. This eliminates excessive paperwork, alleviates transport issues, and helps keep disposal costs low. It also eases the path for lamp recycling.

Mercury collection is a robust and growing business. It was developed to collect and recycle end of life mercury lamps from commercial buildings. Retail consumers are also having their options expanded rapidly. Most local governments collect end-of-life lamps and some retailers like Ikea and Home Depot also collect the lamps. Check your local government for lamp disposal guidelines.
