Precision, Clarity, Enduring Performance
Delivering consistent, reliable performance with vivid colour and clarity, the Sharp A Series is engineered for fixed installations that require dependable image quality and low maintenance.
With precise white point calibration and an extended colour space, the A Series uses 12-bit colour signal processing to achieve rich saturation and deep contrast, perfect for detailed visual content in education, public displays, and simulation environments. Its super-silent operation makes it ideal for acoustically sensitive spaces such as lecture halls, museums, and control rooms.
The sealed optical engine, rated IP5X against dust ingress, maintains stable image quality and sustained brightness over time. The filter-less LCD design combined with a laser light source removes the need for lamp replacements, minimising service costs and enabling up to 20,000 hours of operation.
Installation is streamlined with Sharp’s ProAssist software, enabling remote setup and adjustment even when the projector is inaccessible. Wide lens shift, along with advanced features such as HDBaseT-out, blending, and stacking capabilities, ensures flexible integration in complex environments.
Benefits
- No lamp replacement – Up to 20,000 hours maintenance-free operation thanks to the laser light source.
- No filter service required – The sealed optical laser LCD engine allows a filter-free design (IP5X rated), maintaining brilliant colour brightness while reducing servicing costs.
- Compact design – Large-venue projector with a comparatively small footprint and lightweight chassis.
- Vivid colour & contrast – Wide colour space with high dynamic contrast supporting HDR10 via HDMI for stunning visual depth.
- Advanced visualisation – Free tilt, portrait mode, geometric adjustment, tiling, and camera-based blending for professional-grade projection.
