Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage Series, 87" x 153.75" with Da-Mat - DL14990EFL
Recessed ceiling electric screen with 177" diagonal, 87" x 153.75" dimensions, Da-Mat surface, and SightLine cable drop technology
The Da-Lite DL14990EFL is a Tensioned Advantage Series ceiling recessed electric screen designed for high-end architectural integration. Featuring a 177 in (449.6 cm) diagonal and a screen height of 87 in (221 cm), this 16:9 HDTV format screen utilizes a Da-Mat surface for front projection applications. This specific model is configured with the SightLine cable drop system, which uses thin cables to provide the appearance of a floating screen by eliminating the need for a traditional black border above the viewing area. This configuration allows for variable vertical placement between the ceiling and the top of the screen, with standard drop distances or an optional 10-ft extension (SKU DL16476) to accommodate specific architectural requirements. The white powder-coated case is UL Plenum rated and designed for two-stage installation, allowing the housing to be mounted during rough-in while the surface assembly is finished later. The 220V (50Hz) motor is intended for export markets and includes standard low voltage control.

Questions about this part
Will the DL14990EFL fit my existing ceiling configuration?
This model is a ceiling recessed unit designed for two-stage installation. The housing can be installed during the rough-in stage, and the screen surface assembly is attached during the finishing stage using sliding installation brackets.
Can I adjust the vertical drop distance for the SightLine cables?
Yes. The SightLine feature allows for variable vertical placement between the ceiling and the top of the screen, supporting standard drop distances or an optional 10-ft extension via part number DL16476.
What controls are included with this Da-Lite screen?
The DL14990EFL comes with standard low voltage control and includes a Decora-style, three-button wall switch. Additional controllers like the DL16521 (PoE Injector version) or DL16522 (RF Remote) can be added.
What is the difference between this and the Parallax Pure surface models?
This model uses a Da-Mat surface. Unlike Parallax Pure surfaces which have a unique micro-layered lens system, Da-Mat is a standard resolution surface that includes black backing to retain brightness for front projection.
Is this screen suitable for federal projects?
Yes, this SKU is TAA Compliant and features a UL Plenum rated case, making it suitable for various large venue and commercial installations.
