Da-Lite 133" Tensioned Contour Projection Screen HD Progressive 1.1

Product Overview

The Da-Lite Tensioned Contour Electrol is a wall or ceiling-mounted motorized projection screen engineered for commercial AV installations where a ceiling-recessed housing is not required. This 133" diagonal, HDTV 16:9 format screen features the HD Progressive 1.1 surface — a standard-gain, wide-viewing-angle surface compatible with all projector types including 1080p, 4K, and Ultra HD. The 133" format provides a commanding 116"x65" viewing area suited for larger conference rooms, boardrooms, and training facilities. The TruGuide tensioning system and Smooth Roll Technology work together to maintain a consistently flat, wrinkle-free viewing surface throughout the screen's service life. The Silent Drive System ensures near-silent motor operation, making it appropriate for acoustically sensitive environments. Standard Low Voltage Control (LVC) simplifies integration with third-party AV control systems, while optional SCB-100 or SCB-200 RS-232 serial control boards enable integration with Crestron, AMX, Extron, and other control platforms. A three-button Decora wall switch is included for simple standalone operation. The white powder-coated aluminum housing is standard, with black available on request. The Tensioned Contour is also available in 21:9 Ultra-Wide format for hybrid video conferencing applications — see the Tensioned Contour Ultra-Wide series at creationnetworks.net.

Product Description

The Da-Lite Tensioned Contour Electrol 133" mounts directly to a wall or ceiling surface without requiring a recessed housing, making it a practical choice for retrofit installations and standard commercial construction. The aluminum housing ships in white powder-coat finish as standard, with black available on request. The Silent Drive System keeps motor noise minimal during screen travel — essential for conference rooms and boardrooms where meetings may be active during screen deployment. A standard 12" black drop above the viewing area separates the housing from the top edge of the projected image. The LVC system allows integration with any dry-contact AV control relay, eliminating high-voltage wiring at the wall plate. Optional SCB-100 or SCB-200 RS-232 boards and the Video Projector Interface (VPI) screen trigger provide additional control pathways for integrated AV systems. The HD Progressive 1.1 surface delivers a gain of 1.1 with a wide horizontal viewing cone, making it ideal for rooms where audience members are seated across a broad angle from the screen. The TruGuide tensioning system applies uniform tension across the 116"x65" viewing area, eliminating surface ripple and distortion. Smooth Roll Technology prevents surface deformation during the retraction cycle. The 5-year limited warranty covers all motorized components and screen surface materials.
