Christie 140-114107-XX Zoom Standard Throw Projector Lens: Compatible with 16 Models Including

Christie Original Lens 140-114107-XX Zoom is a genuine optical accessory for Christie installation projectors, belonging to the standard throw category, with a throw ratio of 0.84-1.02:1. The original compatibility list covers 16 models; simply verify against the projector model and panel size before installation—no adapter rings needed. The value of an original lens isn't about extra rows of numbers in the spec sheet, but that it is calibrated at the factory to the optical path and mount of that series: once installed, the image circle, edge illumination, and focus travel all match design values, so you don't need keystone correction to compensate for image quality.

1. Lens Specifications

The above specifications are subject to the original manufacturer's specifications. For mechanical dimensions, flange focal distance, and mount type not shown in the spec sheet, please verify with us against the projector model—ordering based on similar model numbers carries the risk of incompatibility.

2. Converting Throw Ratio to Installation Distance

Throw ratio is the ratio of installation distance to image width. This original lens is a zoom lens (0.84-1.02:1), so the same image size corresponds to a range of distances; as long as installation falls within this range, focus can be achieved.

The above figures are the clear distance from the lens front to the screen, excluding rear ventilation and cabling space behind the projector. Calculated for 16:10 aspect ratio; actual values are subject to on-site measurement and the original manufacturer's manual.

Image quality differs at the two ends of the zoom range: toward the near end the image is brighter with slightly softer edges; toward the far end the edges are sharper with slightly reduced brightness. Where space permits, it is recommended to land in the middle of the range; after installation, first find the sharpest position on the focus ring, then fine-tune the shift.

3. Compatible Models (16)

The table below is taken from the original compatibility list; brightness and resolution are filled in from the model database, with "—" where unavailable—no speculation.

For models not on the list, please send us photos of the projector nameplate and the existing lens for verification—same-generation platforms often share mounts, but ordering based on similar model numbers is a risk not worth taking.

Throw Ratios Across Model Series

The same 140-114107-XX Zoom lens, when installed on the following series, does not have the same nominal throw ratio; selection should be based on the actual series of the projector.

4. Three Things to Confirm Before Replacement

• Confirm the projector chip and resolution. Original lenses are designed for specific panel sizes; if the panel specifications differ, the image circle cannot cover it, resulting in vignetting or edge light loss after installation.
• Calculate the installation distance first. This lens has a nominal throw ratio of 0.84-1.02:1; use the table in Section 2 to match your venue dimensions. Fixed focal length has no margin, and even with zoom, allow 10–20 cm at both ends.
• Check the mount and locking. Original lenses are calibrated to the mount of that series; after installation, you must hear the lock engage. Image skew or soft edges are mostly due to incomplete locking, not a problem with the lens itself.

If unsure, take a photo of the projector nameplate and the existing lens nameplate and send them to us—verification against the actual item is the most reliable.
