Mar 24, 2011 at 16:30 comment added Matthew Daws I think, by the Closed Graph Theorem, your condition on sequences is equivalent to $P_X, P_Y$ being bounded.
Mar 24, 2011 at 14:04 comment added Michael Renardy It suffices to make the following assumption: If $x_n\to x$ in X, $y_n\to y$ in Y and $(x_n,y_n)\to z$ in Z, then z=(x,y). If we assume this, then Z becomes a Banach space under the norm $\|(x,y)\|=\|(x,y)\|_Z+\|x\|_X+\|y\|_Y$. Since this norm is stronger than either $\|.\|_Z$ or $\|.\|_1$, it must be equivalent to both by the open mapping theorem.
