Fitting a Planar PR5021 that already has a sound housing, this bare 997-5950-00 bulb saves you paying for a cage you don't need. Rated at 230 watts for 2,500 hours, it is the same lamp used inside the complete module version, supplied here without the housing attached.
Because this is a bare bulb, you will need to open the housing taken from your PR5021 and transfer the new bulb into it, matching the same orientation as the one removed. If that housing shows cracking, scorch marks or a loose connector, the complete module version is the safer choice instead.

Common questions
Do I need any tools to fit a bare bulb into the PR5021 housing?
Opening most Planar lamp cages requires a small screwdriver to release the retaining screws around the bulb unit. Take care when handling the old bulb, as it can remain warm, and ensure the new one is seated the same way before closing the cage again.
Is this the same lamp as the complete module option?
Yes. The bulb inside 997-5950-00 is identical whether you buy it bare or as a complete module; the difference is only whether a new housing is included.
Why would I choose a bare bulb over a complete module?
A bare bulb costs less because you are reusing the housing already fitted in your PR5021. It only makes sense if that housing is undamaged, since a cracked or discoloured cage will not protect a new bulb properly.
How do I know if my PR5021 needs a bare bulb or a full module?
Remove your current lamp assembly and inspect the housing. If the plastic is intact, the connector pins are straight and there is no scorching, a bare bulb is enough. Visible damage to the housing means a complete module is the better option.
What service life does Planar quote for this PR5021 bulb?
This bulb is rated for 2,500 hours at 230 watts, the same figure Planar quotes for the complete module version, since it is the identical bulb in both cases.
This is a bare lamp — the bulb only. You reuse the housing already fitted in your projector.
