Draper Access XL V – 250", NTSC – 147011U

Product Overview

The Draper Access XL V is a ceiling-recessed, tab-tensioned electric screen built for large venues, and this 250" diagonal NTSC (4:3) model is a true large-format projection screen for ballrooms, conference centers, and large university classrooms. It retracts fully into its case for a clean ceiling line when not in use, then deploys a flat, tab-tensioned image on demand. This unit ships with Draper's low voltage LVC-IV motor for controlled operation and AV control-system integration. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 5-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Access XL V ceiling-recessed projection screen extends the Access V platform to large-venue image sizes while keeping the same concealed, install-during-construction approach integrators rely on. Its steel case measures 10-1/8" high x 9-7/16" deep (26 cm x 24 cm) including the trim flange, with sliding brackets on top for unlimited mounting adjustment and internal sliding brackets that accommodate the screen assembly. Maximum image width for the model is 18' (549 cm), so this 250" 4:3 unit is well suited to large presentation rooms. The tab-tensioned design holds the surface flat for a wrinkle-free image across the full width, and Draper's RF-welded tabs eliminate stickiness and tab separation — they are warranted against separation for five years. The image area is framed in black with a standard 12" (30 cm) black drop at the top for correct projector alignment. Adjustable or removable hoisting brackets ease lifting this large case into place during installation, and a detachable bottom access panel allows service without removing the case from the ceiling. This unit ships with the low voltage LVC-IV motor (SKU suffix U). Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the large-venue system.

Frequently Asked Questions

How large a room does the Access XL V suit?

The Access XL V is a large-format model with a maximum image width of 18' (549 cm). This 250" 4:3 size is intended for large venues such as ballrooms, conference centers, and auditoriums where the audience sits well back from the screen.

What does the "U" in SKU 147011U indicate?

The U suffix indicates Draper's low voltage LVC-IV motor, which provides controlled operation and integrates with AV control systems for automated deployment of the screen.

How durable are the tab-tensioning tabs at this size?

The tabs are RF-welded to eliminate stickiness and separation, and Draper warrants them against separation for five years, which is important for a large screen that must stay flat across its full width.

What projectors and mounts are compatible with this screen?

Use a commercial front projector matched to the 250" 4:3 format and the room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.
