In developing the Ultra Thin LCD Series, we strive to make long-lasting products through repeated testing and minimize its impact on the environment with specs that contribute to energy saving and CO₂ reduction.

*1

Comparison of annual CO₂ emissions of W36-HF2 (36” CRT designed to Japan domestic specifications, Decades- old Model) and UT37-XP770 (37”(94cm V) Ultra Thin LCD Series designed to Japan domestic specifications). W36-HF2: approx. 109kg/year; UT37-XP770: approx. 75kg/year (figures from Hitachi tests).

*2

Annual energy consumption is the amount of power used in one year, calculated from the average family viewing Time (4.5 hours) and from the screen size and type of Receiver, and based on the Law Concerning the Rational Use of Energy.
W36-HF2: approx. 265 kWh/year; UT37-XV770: approx. 184kWh/year (figures from Hitachi tests).

*3

LCD panel life is estimated for usage in standard mode. For LCD panels, the life is the number of operating hours until the luminance of the backlight is reduced by half (through values and metrics using Hitachi TV sets). Times may differ due to usage conditions (screen settings and test image content) and usage environment (excluding damage).
