What this lamp replaces

The Optoma ES526 is a 185W projector lamp module that ships as a complete bulb-and-housing assembly. It is designed for owners of compatible Optoma projectors who need a drop-in replacement without separate bulb handling. The unit arrives ready to install, matching the original form factor used in the listed models.

Steady brightness over the rated hours

Under normal operation the lamp is rated for 2000 hours before brightness drops to half its initial output. Switching the projector to economy mode extends that rating to 3000 hours, giving a practical choice between maximum luminance and longer intervals between replacements. Both figures reflect continuous use rather than brief peak performance.

The wattage that must match your projector

The 185W power rating is the single specification that determines whether this module is the correct part for a given projector. Installing a lamp with a different wattage can prevent ignition, cause premature failure or damage the projector's power supply. Verify the original lamp's wattage in the projector's documentation before ordering.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 185W Philips UHP lamp draw and how hot does it run during all-day use?

The lamp is rated at 185W. Power draw and heat output match that wattage; the projector's own cooling system manages temperature during continuous operation.

Does the ES526 module arrive fully assembled so I only need the projector itself?

Yes. The unit includes the Philips UHP 185W bulb pre-installed in its housing, ready for direct installation in a compatible Optoma projector without extra parts.

Will this replacement lamp keep the same 2,000-hour normal and 3,000-hour economy life as the original in my older Optoma?

The ES526 is specified at 2,000 hours in normal mode and 3,000 hours in economy mode, matching the original lamp's rated life for supported Optoma models.
