EB-685W Projector

Epson EB-685W – 3500 ANSI Lumens WXGA Ultra Short Throw Projector

The Epson EB-685W is a 3500 ANSI lumens WXGA ultra-short-throw projector designed for classrooms, teaching environments and education spaces. Combining bright HD-ready projection, a large image size of up to 100 inches and flexible teaching features, it helps create engaging learning experiences while reducing shadows and glare commonly associated with traditional projector installations.

Its ultra-short-throw design enables large-format projection from a short distance, making it particularly well suited to classrooms where wall space may be limited and clear visibility is essential.

Bright WXGA Images for Education

Epson’s 3LCD technology delivers high White Light Output and Colour Light Output to produce bright, vivid images in a variety of classroom lighting conditions. The combination of WXGA resolution, 3500 lumens brightness and a 14,000:1 contrast ratio helps ensure presentations, educational content, text and video remain clear and easy to view.

Ultra-Short-Throw Classroom Projection

The ultra-short-throw projector design allows the EB-685W to produce a large image from a very short projection distance. This helps minimise shadows cast by presenters and reduce glare from the projection beam, supporting a more comfortable and interactive classroom environment.

With support for images up to 100 inches, the projector provides a large viewing area suitable for lessons, presentations and collaborative activities.

Flexible Teaching and Presentation Features

Built-in split-screen functionality allows content from two sources to be displayed simultaneously, making it easier to compare information, present multiple content streams or support collaborative learning activities.

The moderator function provides teachers with control over the content displayed to students, helping support more structured classroom participation.

The projector can also be used with an optional Epson document camera, allowing documents, objects and 3D items to be displayed clearly for the entire class.

Wireless Connectivity

Optional wireless connectivity enables content sharing from compatible smart devices and Google Chromebooks using Epson’s iProjection app, helping support flexible teaching methods and device integration within modern learning environments.

Long Lamp Life and Reduced Running Costs

The EB-685W is designed for reliable long-term classroom use, with a lamp life of up to 10,000 hours in Eco mode. This extended lamp life helps reduce maintenance requirements and ongoing operating costs, making the projector a practical choice for education environments.
