Draper Micro Projector Lift User manual

Micro Projector Lift
Designed for today’s smaller projectors.
The Micro Projector Lift (MPL) is small and convenient, just like the
projectors it is designed to accommodate. Weighing only 35 pounds, it can
be installed in an existing    ceiling opening without disturbing the
ceiling framework. The projector’s “show” position can be set at any point
with infinite adjustability, up to  extension.
The Micro Projector Lift utilizes the same exclusive 3-scissor design
as Draper’s popular Scissor Lift (see page 6), but features a compact
side-folding scissor. The load is lifted by two  wide Kevlar® straps. Safety
belt provides extra protection. Closed height of lifting unit is only  tall
(not including projector, mounting mechanism or closure), so a minimal
amount of overhead ceiling space is required.
System Options
• Ceiling closure panel—White closure panel is optional and can also be
adapted to attach ceiling tile to match surrounding ceiling. Ceiling closure
panel option shown in photos at right.
• Plenum housing—Height varies according to choice of projector. Overall
height of plenum is adjustable. Includes ceiling trim ring. Does not
include ceiling closure panel.
• Ceiling finish kit—Ceiling closure panel and ceiling trim ring to finish
ceiling opening.
• Projector mounting bracket—The Low Profile Mount is described
below. Projector may also be mounted flush to bottom pan.
• Factory installed cables for Video and Projector Control.
• Ceiling access door—A  x  hinged door provides access to the
MPL above a finished
ceiling for maintenance
or repairs without having
to damage the ceiling.
Available with a white
painted finish or recessed
to accept ceiling tile.
• Controls—Includes
1 wall switch. See website for
other control options.
