Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Series, 135" x 240" with HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast - 37040EL
Ceiling recessed electric screen with HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface, 135" x 240" size, and TAA compliance
The Da-Lite 37040EL is a Tensioned Advantage Series ceiling recessed electric screen designed for large venue front projection. This 135" x 240" screen features an HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface, specifically engineered to provide high-resolution imaging for large-scale environments. Because this is a ceiling recessed model, the unit is designed to be installed with the ceiling trim already in place, which conceals the rough opening and eliminates the need for additional trim work after installation. The two-stage installation process allows the screen case to be mounted during the rough-in construction phase, while the surface assembly is installed during the finishing stage. This unit features a standard black drop and standard low voltage control for flexible operation. The white powder-coated case maintains a clean aesthetic, while the TruGuide™ Electric Screen Tensioning System and Smooth Roll Technology ensure the surface remains perfectly flat during use. This TAA compliant, US-made screen is built for high-performance professional AV environments.

Questions about this part
Will this Da-Lite 37040EL fit my specific ceiling installation?
This is a ceiling recessed model designed to be installed with ceiling trim in place to hide the rough opening. It utilizes sliding installation brackets for flexible mounting to the structure above a drop ceiling.
