Product Description

The Draper Premier XL electric projection screen extends the Premier platform to larger sizes, with a maximum image width up to 16' (488 cm). This unit is a large-format 4:3 (NTSC) front-projection screen with a 20' diagonal and a 144" x 192" image area, configured with the OptiFlex Matt White XT1000VB surface. Matt White XT1000VB is a 1.0-gain matt white diffusing surface that reflects a uniformly bright image across a full 180° viewing cone with accurate color, recommended for rooms where ambient light can be reasonably controlled; it is GREENGUARD Gold certified for low chemical emissions. Series V tab-tensioning uses a tab-guide cable system along each side to keep the surface flat, and RF-welded tabs are warranted against separation for five years. The screen is housed in a fabricated extruded aluminum case with a curved front and L-shaped back/top cover in a black finish, measuring 6-3/4" high x 6-3/4" deep (17 x 17 cm), with the image area fully framed in black and a standard 12" (30 cm) black top drop. This unit operates on 220 V and includes a 110-120V 3-position control switch as standard, with additional control options available for integration into commercial AV control systems. The 4:3 format and large image area suit auditoriums and large training or worship spaces that display data and mixed content to a wide audience. 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.
