Da-Lite 79027L 159" Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol Projection Screen

Product Overview

The Da-Lite 79027L Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol is a wall or ceiling surface-mount motorized projection screen with a 159" diagonal viewing area and TruGuide tensioning for flat, wave-free projection in commercial AV installations. The Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol is the tensioned version of the Cosmopolitan Electrol series, providing improved surface flatness for 4K and UHD projection without requiring ceiling recessing. This model is appropriate for large conference rooms, boardrooms, and training spaces where a non-recessed tensioned screen is required. Low-voltage motor integrates with commercial AV control systems.

Product Description

The Da-Lite 79027L Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol provides a wall or ceiling surface-mount Da-Lite electric projection screen with TruGuide tensioning at 159" diagonal. The TruGuide tensioning system holds the screen fabric under consistent lateral tension, maintaining a flat surface across the full image area for sharp 4K and UHD projection. At 159" diagonal, this screen is appropriate for larger conference rooms, boardrooms, and training facilities where a surface-mounted tensioned screen provides a practical alternative to ceiling-recessed installation. The Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol mounts to the ceiling or wall without requiring a ceiling recess, making it suitable for installations with concrete decks, limited plenum access, or existing MEP infrastructure that prevents recessing. Low-voltage motor control accepts dry contact triggers for integration with AMX, Crestron, Extron, and other commercial AV platforms. The L suffix indicates inclusion of a low-voltage switch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Tensioned Cosmopolitan differ from the standard Cosmopolitan Electrol?

A: The Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol adds TruGuide tensioning which holds the screen flat under lateral tension, improving surface flatness for 4K and UHD projection. The standard Cosmopolitan Electrol is non-tensioned and priced lower.

Q: Why choose surface mount over ceiling recessed for a tensioned screen?

A: Surface mounting is appropriate when ceiling construction prevents recessing. Concrete decks, limited plenum depth, and existing MEP infrastructure are common reasons to select a surface-mount tensioned screen over a recessed model.

Q: What control systems are compatible?

A: The low-voltage motor accepts a dry contact trigger compatible with Crestron, AMX, Extron, and all major commercial AV control systems.

Q: Is this screen compatible with 4K UHD projectors?

A: Yes. The TruGuide tensioning system maintains the surface flatness required for consistent 4K focus across the full image area.

Q: What warranty applies?

A: Da-Lite products carry a limited warranty. Contact Creation Networks or Da-Lite for current warranty terms for the 79027L.
