Da-Lite Deluxe Electrol Projection Screen

The Da-Lite Deluxe Electrol Projection Screen combines sleek aesthetics with robust performance to deliver pristine image quality in classrooms, conference rooms, and home theaters. Featuring a handsome white powder-coated closure doors and case, this screen presents a clean, professional look while protecting the projection surface when not in use. Designed with the modern construction workflow in mind, the Deluxe Electrol is engineered for efficient installation, enabling the case to be mounted during rough-in and the fabric assembly completed at finish stage. Its space-saving design and quiet, reliable operation make it an ideal choice for spaces that require a professional-grade display that blends with the room’s architecture.

• Premium enclosure and finish: A durable white powder-coated case with closure doors hides the screen when retracted, delivering a clean, unobtrusive appearance that complements contemporary interiors. The enclosure is engineered for easy service and maintenance, and its tight seal helps reduce ambient light leakage around the edges for a crisper image at all viewing angles.
• Rough-in friendly installation: The design supports a two-stage installation process—mount the case during rough-in to fit precisely into the ceiling layout, then complete the fabric assembly during finish stage. This approach minimizes on-site disruption and maximizes space efficiency, making it ideal for commercial builds and retrofits where ceiling tiles and grid systems are already in place.
• Effortless electric operation: The Electrol model is powered by a smooth, quiet electric drive that raises and lowers the screen with the push of a button. For convenience, control options typically include a handheld remote and wall switch integration, with reliable stopping positions to ensure the image sits perfectly within the screen’s boundaries every time.
• High‑quality projection surface: The Deluxe Electrol uses a matte white projection fabric designed to deliver bright, uniform images with wide viewing angles. The surface is engineered to withstand frequent use and resist creasing or waviness, maintaining a flat, distortion-free image across the entire viewing area for a professional presentation every time.
• Versatility and durability for daily use: Built to withstand frequent operation in busy environments, the screen is suitable for a variety of room sizes—from compact classrooms to large conference spaces. The sturdy case and fabric assembly are designed for long life, easy cleaning, and minimal maintenance, backed by Da-Lite’s reputation for dependable, performance-driven projection solutions.

How to Install Da-Lite Deluxe Electrol Projection Screen

• Plan the rough-in stage: Identify the location where the electric case will reside above the ceiling plane, ensuring adequate clearance for the motor, wiring, and ceiling tiles. Confirm alignment with the projector’s throw distance and screen width for optimal image placement.
• Mount the enclosure during rough-in: Secure the screen housing to the structural ceiling framework, making sure the case is plumb and centered relative to the intended viewing area. Use appropriate fasteners and follow local building codes to ensure a durable installation that supports the full weight of the screen.
• Run electrical connections: Route power and control wiring to the enclosure in compliance with electrical codes. If required, install a dedicated circuit or the appropriate in-wall wiring path for a clean, code-compliant connection to the motor and control device.
• Finish stage fabric assembly: Once the ceiling tiles are installed, assemble the fabric surface according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the fabric is taut and flat, with no wrinkles or sags, and engage the closure doors to protect the surface when retracted.
• Test and calibrate: Power on the system and test the raise/lower function. Confirm that the screen sits flush within the case when fully raised, and that the bottom edge aligns consistently at the same height across the viewing area. If needed, adjust the stop position according to the provided controls or installation guide.
