With optical motors rated IP6X "dustproof", the highest level of protection from solid objects, the new Vero projectors offer uncompromised performance even in dusty or demanding environments. It is worth noting that these new Vero projectors have reduced their dimensions and weight by approximately 33% compared to the previous PL1520i model, helping to reduce packaging material consumption and fuel emissions per unit during shipping. The PL2520i also supports 24/7 non-stop projection, providing users with reliable, high-quality performance even over extended periods of time. These Vero projectors feature built-in 15W speakers that reproduce powerful, room-filling sound from videos, movies or music, eliminating the need for external speakers.
Auto Shutdown
The Auto Shutdown function automatically shuts down the Acer projector if no input signal is received after a preset time. This feature is customisable via the menu and helps save power and lamp hours.
Acer Football Mode
Bring the stadium to your home with Acer Football Mode. The mode automatically adjusts picture brightness, saturation and sharpness, as well as gamma values, to make skin tones more true and green tones more vivid. Optimal for football fans and sports enthusiasts.
Instant Pack
Instant Pack guarantees the lamp reliability of Acer ColorBoost projectors. The current lamps from renowned manufacturers such as Osram and Philips will not be damaged in the event of a sudden loss of power. (Acer recommends powering the projector until the fan stops). The lamp warranty is 1 year with no hour limit.
HDMI 3D
HDMI 3D: The integrated HDMI 1.4a standard enables the transmission of 3D content from suitable playback devices, such as 3D Blu-ray players, 3D set-top boxes and 3D game consoles, without the need for an additional PC. With the help of the Acer 3D shutter glasses, Blu-ray 3D films and 3D TV programmes can be displayed in the living room up to a diagonal of 7.62 metres (300).
360° projection
The 360° projection offers you the highest flexibility and allows you to use the projector in all positions and to realise interesting installations. For example, you can project from the deck of the room onto the floor or a table, or mount the projector sideways to project upright.

This projector promises the highest reliability and reliably delivers a brilliant image even in 24/7 continuous use. Especially for signage applications or for exhibitions in museums etc., this projector can be used without any worries.
Automatic keystone correction
Thanks to the automatic vertical keystone correction, the Acer projectors automatically compensate for the trapezoidal distortion in case of non-exact vertical set-up and project a right-angled image.
Auto Ceiling Mount Correction
AutoCeiling-Mount Correction: The built-in gravity sensor in the Acer projector detects when it has been mounted overhead on a ceiling and automatically rotates the projection 180° without any additional settings in the menu.
HDMI Power On
With the HDMI Power On function, the projector is able to switch on automatically as soon as the projector receives a signal via HDMI or VGA. You no longer need to start the projector separately, but can simply switch on your notebook, receiver or game console and the projector will also switch on automatically.
AC Power On
With the AC PowerOn function, the projector is able to switch on automatically as soon as the projector is supplied with power. You no longer need to switch on the projector separately, but can start it directly, e.g. by switching on the power in the meeting room.

Application | Business projector Application Ultra-short distance projector: Special short-distance projectors equipped with a wide-angle lens have been developed for conference room and classroom use. These projectors are also usually used for operation with interactive whiteboards. These projectors have the ability to project a large image from a very short distance. Ultra-short distance projectors are extremely popular in presenter circles because, for one thing, the image is not obscured when the presenter is standing in front of the screen. Secondly, the presenter is not or only slightly dazzled by the projector. An increase in this effect is offered by ultra-short distance projectors, which project the correspondingly large image from a distance of only a few centimetres. |
Projector Type | DLP Projector Type DLP: DLP is a projection technique. With DLP technology, the light is sent through a rotating colour wheel. The newer DLP beamers have already increased the number of colour segments on the rotating colour wheel from six to up to eight in order to achieve better colour mixing. The coloured light is beamed onto a DLP chip where there are micro-mirrors. There is one micro-mirror per pixel. From each individual micro-mirror, an image is beamed through the lens onto the projection screen, where an image now appears. Rainbow effect: The rainbow effect basically occurs with all 1-chip DLP projectors. However, only about one third of all users notice this effect. When images are generated by DLP projectors, a specific colour of the colour wheel is successively projected onto the screen for each pixel and interpreted by the viewer's eye as a respective colour with a specific brightness/intensity. The more segments the colour wheel of a DLP projector has and the faster it rotates or the DLP chip is controlled, the smaller the rainbow effect. A flashing of the colours of the colour wheel (red-green-blue, possibly others) is then perceptible, partly with complete, also still images, partly with moving images, but especially at edges between bright and dark image areas. The effect can also be observed in high-contrast or dark images, or when the image content changes rapidly, e.g. in action films. Viewers who notice this effect report, among other things, from slight headaches to severe headaches and dizziness. LCD: LCD (liquid crystal display) is a projection technology. Lamp light is split by a dichroic mirror into its three primary colours: red, green and blue (3LCD). The split light is filtered by the polysilicon liquid crystal panel working for each colour. This creates monochrome images that are superimposed by a prism to create a picture on the screen. Particularly high-quality beamers use four panels (4LCD). With 4LCD beamers, the colour yellow is also separated. This enhancement emphasises the display of yellow. LCoS: LcoS is a projection technique. This technology also uses liquid panels, but the panels are not illuminated as with LCD technology. There are mirrors behind the panels that are similar to DLP technology. These mirrors significantly reduce the fly screen effect and achieve higher contrast values. Rear projection: Many projectors are suitable for so-called rear projection. For rear projection, an appropriately translucent screen is required (rear projection screen). For rear projection, the projector is positioned behind the screen and the corresponding mode is switched on in the projector menu. This function ensures that the image is mirrored. The advantage of rear projection is that the image is not obscured in the area in front of the screen when people walk in front of the image in the cone of light between the projector and the screen. For rear projection, projectors with higher light output are needed, as a lot of light is lost when passing through the screen. Since screens with rear projection surfaces have a high gain factor, the viewing angle decreases, so the audience should be positioned as centrally as possible in front of the screen. This type of rear projection is particularly popular in the event industry. Short-distance projectors: Special short-distance projectors equipped with a wide-angle lens have been developed for conference room and classroom use. These projectors are also commonly used for operation with interactive whiteboards. Short-distance projectors have the property of projecting a large image from a very short distance. This feature is extremely popular in presenter circles because, on the one hand, little of the image is obscured when the presenter is standing in front of the screen. Secondly, the presenter is not or only slightly dazzled by the projector. An increase in this effect is offered by ultra-short distance projectors, which project the correspondingly large image from only a few centimetres away. |

Resolution | 1920 x 1080 Full HD Resolution Resolution: The resolution of a projector is the maximum number of image points (pixels) that a projector can display based on its naturally existing technology, i.e. without conversion or cropping of the image. The native resolution is the number of pixels that a projector physically has to display the image. A projector usually interpolates a resolution when it receives an image signal with a higher resolution than the native one. If this is the case, there may be a lack of image detail or general blurring in the displayed image. If a projector receives an image signal with a lower resolution than the native, it also interpolates, it scales the image up to the native resolution, calculates corresponding additional pixels, if possible without changing the image information. The disadvantage here is that although the image is displayed larger than fed, the original individual pixels may become much more visible as they are multiplied by the conversion. 4K: 4K refers to the resolution of 3840 x 2160 or Ultra High Definition Television (UHDTV). This resolution corresponds to 4 times the resolution of Full HD. To record films with this resolution, special cameras are needed that can record at around 8 megapixels (4K). Full HD: The term Full HD is used to describe devices that can physically display or output HDTV signals in full (1920 x 1080 pixels). 1080p: 1080p is the specification of the vertical picture lines. Among other things, it refers to the resolution 1920 x 1080. The "p" in this case means full frames, so all picture lines are displayed simultaneously. 1080i: 1080i is the specification of the vertical picture lines. The "i" in this case means fields. This signal is usually displayed interpolated (e.g. by devices with a 1280 x 720 HDready resolution). The interpolation digitally adds pixels, but also offers a slight blurring. In contrast, 1080p playback uses full frames. |
Aspect Ratio | 16:9 Aspect Ratio Format: The projected image is output in a format (aspect ratio) specified by the projector. The format is also determined by the resolution of the projector (see also the entry "Resolution"). The screen format is usually selected on the basis of the format of the beamer image. The most common formats are 4:3, 16:9 and 16:10. |
Contrast Ratio | 2,000,000 :1 Contrast Ratio Contrast: The contrast reflects the gradations between the lightest and darkest point. This is determined from white to grey to black. The higher the contrast, the more precisely the individual gradations between the respective sections can be recognised. In real use, however, the contrast actually only plays a role in darkened rooms, as the light counteracts the contrast. Therefore, contrast plays a rather subordinate role in presentation devices. It should also be noted that the contrast is determined differently depending on the technology. This often results in very different values on paper. Black level: The black level indicates the lowest light value of the projection that is achieved when projecting a black image. The better the black level, the more the dark colours / black tones are emphasised in the image. |
Operating noise | 29 dB Operating noise Operating noise: Naturally, every projector produces an operating noise due to the cooling function of the ventilation fan. This is specified by the manufacturer in the data sheet in dB (decibels). In Eco mode, the projectors are quieter than in normal operation due to the reduced output. However, the manufacturers' specifications do not always correspond to reality, as there is no standardised measurement procedure for this measurement. Thus, the projectors cannot be compared exactly by the volume specification. Decibel (dB): Naturally, every projector emits an operating noise caused by the cooling function of the ventilation fan. This is specified by the manufacturer in the data sheet in dB (decibels). In Eco mode, the projectors are quieter than in normal operation due to the reduced output. However, the manufacturers' specifications do not always correspond to reality, as there is no standardised measurement procedure for this measurement. Thus, the projectors are not exactly comparable by the volume specification. Volume: Naturally, every projector produces an operating noise due to the cooling function of the ventilation fan. This is indicated by the manufacturer in the data sheet in dB (decibels). In Eco mode, the projectors are quieter than in normal operation due to the reduced output. However, the manufacturers' specifications do not always correspond to reality, as there is no standardised measurement procedure for this measurement. Thus, the projectors are not exactly comparable in terms of volume. |
Lamp life | 30,000 Hour Lamp life Lamp life: The lamp life is specified by the manufacturer once in normal mode and once in eco mode. Depending on which mode the projector is used in, the lamp may last less or longer. However, the lamp life also depends on the duration of use. The longer a projector is in operation, the sooner it can lose its service life. Furthermore, external influences such as dust or nicotine can lead to a reduction in the service life. In order to ensure a longer lamp life, appropriate maintenance of the unit is necessary. Maintenance means that the air filter of LCD projectors should be vacuumed out frequently or replaced completely if there is a corresponding build-up of dirt. The exact service life of a projector cannot be determined exactly because of this. In order to accommodate the user, the various manufacturers offer different lamp warranty conditions for their devices. For example, one year on the lamp or up to 1000 lamp hours, whichever comes first. However, this varies from manufacturer to manufacturer and can be found in the specific data sheets. |

Minimum Projection Distance | 100 cm |
Maximum Projection Distance | 740 cm |
Minimum Projection Ratio | 1.12 Minimum Projection Ratio Projection ratio: The projection ratio indicates at which projection distance a corresponding image width is achieved. This value depends on the lens installed.Example 1 - Calculating the distance: Projection ratio 1.4-1.8:1 Desired image width = 300cm Result: 420 - 540 cm distance (300 x 1.4 or 1.8). Example 2 - Calculation of possible image widths: Projection ratio 1.4-1.8:1 Projection distance = 560cm Result: 311 - 400cm image width (560 / 1.4 or 1.8). |
Maximum Projection Ratio | 1.47 Maximum Projection Ratio Projection ratio: The projection ratio indicates at which projection distance a corresponding image width is achieved. This value depends on the lens installed.Example 1 - Calculating the distance: Projection ratio 1.4-1.8:1 Desired image width = 300cm Result: 420 - 540 cm distance (300 x 1.4 or 1.8). Example 2 - Calculation of possible image widths: Projection ratio 1.4-1.8:1 Projection distance = 560cm Result: 311 - 400cm image width (560 / 1.4 or 1.8). |
Vertical Keystone | 40% Vertical Keystone Keystone correction horizontal: If possible, a projector should always be aligned at right angles and horizontally to the screen in order to achieve an optimal result. However, in practice this is not always possible. For this reason, almost all beamers are equipped with vertical keystone correction and some models are also equipped with horizontal keystone correction. This function digitally compensates for and corrects trapezoidal distortion of the image. Furthermore, there is also an auto keystone correction, whereby the projector automatically detects the tilt and adjusts itself. Offset: The majority of projectors do not project straight ahead, but with a slight vertical offset downwards or upwards ( depending on the type of installation there are, for example, table or ceiling installations that make this offset useful). This so-called offset can be compensated for with the help of vertical keystone correction (caution: loss of quality!) or lens shift function (optical, loss-free solution) (if available on the projector). |
Inputs | 1x RS232 , 2x HDMI , 2x USB-A Inputs HDMI: Digital connection for the transmission of picture & sound. Necessary for high-resolution picture quality (HDTV). Since HDMI 1.4 (High Speed) suitable for transmission of 3D content in Full HD. For high-resolution picture quality in UHD, 4K or HDR, the connection via HDMI 2.0a and higher is suitable. HDMI 2.1 or higher should be used from 120Hz refresh rate in 4K. VGA: The VGA connector is a 15-pin connector for analogue image transmission. It is also called DSub15 and is often found on notebooks and PCs. Compared to the other analogue connections, it offers good picture quality. It can be screwed to the input or output device and can be adapted to YUV with a suitable configuration. DisplayPort: The DisplayPort connection is a VESA-standardised connection for the transmission of image and sound data. In addition to HDCP encryption, DPCP is also supported. Due to its compact size, the connection is most commonly used in notebooks. An extra small variant is the MiniDisplayPort, which is used especially with Apple devices. DVI: DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is an interface for the transmission of video data. Only analogue signals can be transmitted via DVi-A, only digital signals via DVI-D and both types of signals via DVI-I. USB: USB (Universal Serial Bus) is used to control and manage the projector (USB-B). With some business devices, office files and images can also be presented directly with a USB stick or a mouse can be connected via the USB input (USB-A). Toslink: The Toslink connection is an optical signal connection that works on an optical fibre basis. It is used for the digital transmission of audio signals. The optical design offers a lower susceptibility to interference from external magnetic and electrical influences. The connection is mostly used in the area of DVD / Blu-ray players and comparable devices in connection with an AV receiver, if these work with dts or Dolby Digital signals. YUV: The YUV connection, also called Y Cb/Pb Cr/Pr or component connection, is an analogue video connection with three channels (light intensity and two colour channels). Qualitatively, it is the best analogue video connection. Component cable: The YUV connector transmits analogue signals over three cables (Y=black and white UV=colours). YUV is used to transmit HDTV and is compatible with Cinch, for example. S-Video: The S-Video connection is also called S-VHS or Hosiden connection. Compared to the Cinch video connection, it works with two channels (brightness/colour). In terms of quality, it is somewhat better than the Cinch video connection, but there are also limitations. These can be explained by the susceptibility of the signal, which is reflected in picture distortions, for example. Cinch: The cinch video connection is also called composite connection. To make it easier to recognise, it is usually sheathed in yellow. Since the transmission is only via one channel, the picture quality is on a low level. D-Sub15: The VGA connector is a 15-pin connector for image transmission on an analogue basis. It is also called DSub15 and is often found on notebooks and PCs. Compared to the other analogue connectors, it offers good picture quality. It can be screwed to the input or output device and can be adapted to YUV with a suitable configuration. RS232: The RS232 interface can be used to control or manage the projector. Mini Jack: With a single-pin Mini Jack, mono audio signals can be transmitted, with a two-pin stereo audio signals and with a three-pin stereo audio signals and image data can be transmitted. Scart: Scart is a connector that can be used to transmit analogue audio and video signals. It is compatible with other analogue connections such as RCA or S-Video. ARC: The audio return channel, also called ARC or audio return channel, was introduced with HDMI version 1.4 to reduce the amount of cabling between HDMI components. The audio return channel runs via the existing HDMI cable. Therefore, an additional cable for the sound no longer needs to be connected. However, both devices must support ARC. All audio file formats that are also transmitted via the SPDIF interface can be transmitted via the audio return channel. These include Dolby Digital, Digital Theatre Sound and PCM audio. As an example, a connection between a TV (including receiver) and an AV receiver could be made via an HDMI cable. The sound from the TV is fed back via the HDMI cable. Previously, an additional digital cable (coaxial or Tos-Link) was required for the audio signals. |
