The burner itself, and nothing around it
Osram P-VIP 240/0.8 E20.9N bare replacement burner
A genuine Osram burner with its electrical specification published — bare, for transferring into the cage you already own.
What this is, precisely
The burner. Nothing else. A genuine Osram P-VIP 240/0.8 E20.9N, 240 W at a nominal 70.0 V, supplied without a housing.
That is the middle path on this shelf: the part that actually produces light is the manufacturer’s own, and the plastic cage — which has not failed — stays in service.
What it asks of you
Dismantling the old module and transferring the burner. It is careful work rather than hard: the housing opens, the spent burner comes out, the new one goes in aligned the same way.
One rule that is not optional: do not touch the quartz with bare fingers. Skin oils create hot spots, and a hot spot on a running burner is how one fails early or violently.
Anyone uneasy with that should buy a lamp with the housing included — two on this shelf have one.
The compatibility check
The maker refers to its own description for the projector list rather than naming a single part number. That needs reading against your projector’s model number, from the underside of the machine — not against a range name.
What is not published
The stated life in hours. Life figures on this shelf are quoted in eco mode anyway, and this listing gives none at all.
After fitting
Reset the lamp timer. It is the only way the projector will warn you honestly next time.
