{"product_id":"mp512st-projector-lamp-module","title":"MP512ST projector lamp with module","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis lamp is listed under the code MP512ST and fits four closely related BenQ projectors: the MP512, MP512 ST, MP522 and MP522 ST. Rated at 185 watts for around 3,000 hours, it's supplied here as a module, with the bulb already mounted in its own housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe same lamp also appears under the codes 9E.Y1301.001 and MP522ST, so any of these three references on your existing unit points to the correct part. Because the standard and ST variants of both the MP512 and MP522 share this lamp, the suffix in the model name doesn't change which part to order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e — 185 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated life\u003c\/strong\u003e — 3,000 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e — Projector Lamp with Module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU\u003c\/strong\u003e — LA-08247\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — 4 projector models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is this lamp named after a projector model, MP512ST, rather than a numeric code?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome BenQ lamps are catalogued under a model-based reference rather than the usual 5J or CS-prefixed code; MP512ST is simply the label used for this particular part, alongside 9E.Y1301.001 and MP522ST.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre MP512ST and MP522ST genuinely the same lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, both codes describe the identical part, which is also recorded as 9E.Y1301.001. All three references lead to the same lamp fitting the MP512, MP512 ST, MP522 and MP522 ST.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the ST suffix mean short-throw on these BenQ models?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt generally denotes a short-throw variant within BenQ's naming, but the lamp requirement is unaffected, so the same module fits the standard and ST versions of both the MP512 and MP522.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat should I inspect on the old housing before fitting this new module?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNothing needs inspecting since the module replaces the entire housing; simply remove the old cage as a complete unit and fit the new one, following your MP512 or MP522's manual for the exact screws involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 185 watts a typical output for BenQ projectors of this generation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's within the range we see across BenQ's MP-series business projectors from this era, alongside lamps rated at 180, 190 and 200 watts in other listings we carry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182618587372,"sku":"LA-08247","price":117.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/26770-xl.png?v=1786958817","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/mp512st-projector-lamp-module","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
