About This Original Lens

Barco EN42 Wide Fixed Lens

The EN42 Wide Fixed is a short throw lens manufactured by Barco as an OEM product. Its optical structure, lens coatings, and body tolerances are all matched to original machine standards, ensuring plug-and-play installation and stable imaging. For installations with limited projection distance (e.g., large images from short distances, wall-mounted ultra-short throw), choosing the correct throw ratio is more critical than selecting a generic lens.

This lens has a throw ratio of 0.75:1. Throw ratio = projection distance ÷ image width: the smaller the value, the larger the image (ideal for short distances and small spaces); the larger the value, the greater the installation distance required. Work backward from your installation distance and screen size to determine the required throw ratio range, then match it to this model.

FAQ

Q: How do I choose between an original lens and a replacement lens?

A: Original lenses are manufactured by Barco, with optical parameters and body tolerances calibrated to original machine standards, making them ideal for projects with strict requirements for OEM consistency. Zorsika replacement lenses are independently designed and manufactured to the same specifications, with throw ratio, image circle, and mount matched to the original, offering advantages in budget and lead time. Zorsika can supply both options—choose based on your project requirements.

Q: How do I confirm this lens will work on my projector?

A: The lens mount and panel/chip size on the projector are the deciding factors; this article lists verified compatible models. Projectors of the same generation and brand often share the same mount. If you are unsure, take a photo of the nameplate and send it to Zorsika technical support for confirmation—this is the safest approach.

Q: How do I choose the throw ratio?

A: Throw ratio = projection distance ÷ image width. The smaller the value, the larger the image (short throw/ultra-short throw suits close distances and small spaces); the larger the value, the greater the installation distance required. Work backward from your installation distance and screen size to determine the required throw ratio range, then match it to this model's focal length.

Q: How can I be sure the EN42 Wide Fixed is genuine?

A: Zorsika supplies genuine products through OEM channels, with original packaging and traceable serial numbers; channel documentation can be provided for bulk projects to ensure the lens is not refurbished or a used pulled part.

Q: What should I pay attention to when replacing the lens?

A: Before removal, be sure to power off the projector and wait for the cooling fan to stop; hold the lens by the barrel without touching the glass, and use a blower to gently remove any dust; after installation, perform a focus test before tightening the locking screws, and clean the mount and contacts as you go.
