Da-Lite Large Advantage Electrol 243" Electric Projection Screen

The Da-Lite Large Advantage Electrol 243" Electric Projection Screen is a premier solution designed for large-venue environments where performance, durability, and clean aesthetics matter. Built to withstand demanding use in auditoriums, lecture halls, educational facilities, corporate theaters, and houses of worship, this screen combines a robust white aluminum case with intelligent installation design. The case is engineered to be installed during the rough-in stages of construction, with the fabric assembly completed later in the finish stage. This approach minimizes on-site disruption and delivers a professional, seamless appearance once the room is finished. UL Plenum Rated, the case meets stringent safety standards for use in air-handling spaces, providing peace of mind in architectural projects that require compliant, code-friendly solutions. With a generous 243-inch diagonal image, the Large Advantage Electrol delivers a commanding projection area that supports high-impact presentations, cinematic experiences, and impactful data visualization across wide seating plans.

• The 243" diagonal Large Venue Electric Projection Screen is designed to maximize audience engagement, delivering a large, immersive image that is ideal for keynote presentations, training sessions, worship services, and large-format corporate events. Its electrol motorized operation provides smooth, quiet extension and retraction, ensuring that your focus remains on the content rather than on equipment noise.
• Designed for construction-friendly installation, the case is mounted during rough-in to establish a clean architectural line. The fabric can be assembled during the finish stage, allowing the ceiling grid and ceiling tiles to be installed around the housing. This staged approach minimizes construction delays and helps preserve room aesthetics.
• The handsome white aluminum case not only offers a clean, modern look but also simplifies ceiling tile integration. Its slim, unobtrusive profile blends with standard drop ceilings, giving you a professional appearance that doesn’t compete with your projectors or architectural features.
• UL Plenum Rated construction means the screen case is approved for use in plenum spaces, supporting safe, code-compliant installations in buildings with air-handling systems. This rating is especially important for large venues where the screen housing may share space with ductwork or other ventilation infrastructure.
• Beyond size and safety, the Large Advantage Electrol is built for dependable performance over time. The electric drive is designed for heavy use, providing reliable operation for frequent deployments in educational or corporate settings. The simple on/off control and compatibility with standard projectors help ensure consistent image quality and user-friendly operation for staff and presenters alike.
