Draper Acumen V – 109", 16:10 – 154202CDQ

Product Overview

The Draper Acumen V is a surface-mounted, tab-tensioned motorized projection screen built for permanent commercial AV installations. This 109" diagonal model in 16:10 format is a 109" 16:10 motorized projection screen sized for data, presentation, and collaboration content in conference rooms, boardrooms, and training spaces. Its RF-welded tab-tensioning holds the surface flat for an even, wrinkle-free image, while a quiet low-voltage motor and streamlined aluminum case keep the installation discreet. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's seven-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Acumen V tab-tensioned projection screen is engineered for integrators specifying a durable, low-profile electric screen for daily commercial use. A lateral tab-guide cable system with RF-welded tabs maintains even tension across the full image width, keeping the 16:10 picture flat for accurate presentation of spreadsheets, CAD, and widescreen content. The screen retracts into a streamlined extruded-aluminum case just 7-1/8" high by 5-7/8" deep, finished in white powder coat (black available on request), so it reads cleanly against a finished ceiling or wall. Because the Acumen V is surface-mounted rather than recessed, it ships with both floating wall brackets and ceiling suspension brackets, giving the installer flexibility to wall- or ceiling-mount the same unit without ordering separate hardware. A removable fascia provides direct access to the roller and motor, simplifying long-term service. The quiet low-voltage tubular motor is instantly reversible and lifetime-lubricated, and it ships with a built-in low-voltage controller and wall switch for straightforward control-system integration. At 109" diagonal it is a strong fit for conference rooms, training rooms, and multi-purpose spaces that need a dependable, quiet motorized screen. Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Acumen V a tensioned screen?

Yes. As a Draper Series V screen, the Acumen V is tab-tensioned. RF-welded tabs and a lateral tab-guide cable system hold the surface flat across the full width, which keeps the 16:10 image geometrically accurate for data and presentation content.

How quiet is the motor?

This unit ships with Draper's quiet low-voltage motor option, which reduces operating noise during screen deployment and retraction—useful in boardrooms and other spaces where the screen is raised or lowered mid-meeting. It is instantly reversible and lifetime-lubricated.

Is this screen recessed into the ceiling?

No. The Acumen V is a surface-mounted screen. It installs on a wall or below the ceiling using the included floating brackets and ceiling suspension brackets, and does not require an above-ceiling recessed pocket.

What projectors and mounts are compatible?

The Acumen V works with any commercial front projector matched to its 109" 16:10 format and your room's throw distance. Browse our commercial projectors and projector mounts and lifts, or contact us for a throw-distance calculation.

How is the screen serviced?

The fascia is removable, giving direct access to the roller and motor without dismounting the case. This simplifies maintenance and motor service in permanent commercial installations.
