The T5 Series lamp is a bare bulb built to fit seven Costar projectors: the T260, T285, T288, T502, T550, T550ST and T558. It is sold without a housing, so it is fitted into the lamp cage that is already built into your projector rather than replacing the whole assembly.
Costar groups all seven of these models under the same T5 Series lamp reference rather than issuing separate part numbers per model, which is why one listing covers such a wide range of projectors. Check that your existing housing is free of cracks before fitting this bare bulb.

Common questions
Why does one part number cover seven Costar projectors?
Costar assigns a single T5 Series reference to a family of projectors that share the same lamp housing and optical design, rather than issuing a unique code for each individual model in the T260 to T558 range.
How do I know if my Costar projector is part of the T5 Series?
Check the model number printed on your projector against this list: T260, T285, T288, T502, T550, T550ST and T558. If your model matches one of these seven, the T5 Series lamp is the correct part.
Is this lamp sold with a housing as well?
This particular listing is the bare bulb only. A complete module version of the T5 Series lamp, with its own housing, is also available separately if you would prefer not to reuse your existing cage.
What should I check before fitting a bare Costar bulb?
Inspect the existing lamp housing in your T260, T550 or other listed model for cracks, a loose retaining clip or a discoloured socket before fitting the new bulb, since this listing does not include a replacement cage.
Does the T550 use the same lamp as the T550ST?
Yes, our records list both the standard T550 and the short-throw T550ST against this same T5 Series lamp, along with five other Costar models in the same family.
This is a bare lamp — the bulb only. You reuse the housing already fitted in your projector.
