Epson announced a new lineup of projector stacking frames, ceiling mounts and accessories designed and manufactured in Italy by Euromet to complement its 3-chip 3LCD large venue laser projectors. Designed for both live events and the fixed installation markets, Epson says the new 13-model lineup includes one primary ceiling mount and two primary stacking frames that can be customized further with a variety of compatible accessories to match the requirements of the installation. “Engineered with quality and value in mind,” Epson says the new lineup is now shipping to U.S. and Canada-based customers.

Falling into two main categories — projector ceiling mounts and stacking frames — the company says the new lineup starts with simple solutions that also provide the option for installers to layer on a range of add-on accessories to accommodate the specific requirements of their installation.

Compatible with Epson’s 6,000-20,000 lumen2 Pro Series and PowerLite L Series laser projectors, Epson says the new ELPMB68 Ceiling Mount is adjustable with dual fine adjustment knobs, 360-degree swivel and tilt angle capabilities up to 30 degrees. The ELPMB68 provides image alignment to accommodate heavy loads, up to 99 pounds. The ceiling mount also features an integrated mechanism that makes it easy to attach and remove the projector.

Epson says the ELPMB68 can also be paired with a number of accessories, “making it easy to meet the challenges of more complex installations.” Pair it with the ELPMB70 Extension Column for high-ceiling mount applications or the ELPMB69 Portrait Adaptor to quickly achieve portrait projection. The mount can even accommodate attachment to a truss via the ELPMB71 Truss Adapter for secure live event truss mounting. For precise installations of standard or ultra short throw lens-equipped projectors without zoom, installers can utilize the ELPMB85 Rail Adapter for fine forward and backward adjustment of the projector from the screen via the built-in ratcheting wrench.

With two frame size options available to accommodate even the smallest Epson interchangeable lens projectors for the first time, the company says the ELPMB76 and ELPMB84 Projector Stacking Frames deliver robust and flexible stacking solutions for the EB-PU and EB-PQ range of Epson projectors (sold separately) from 6,000 to 20,000 lumens. Offering a cost-effective way to dramatically increase displayed image brightness and add redundancy, the frames enable vertical or horizontal stacking of multiple projectors. The frames also act as a protective enclosure, providing peace of mind during installation and handling, according to Epson.

Epson says the modular design of both frames allows for easy addition of a broad range of accessories for powerful added functionality. For additional truss mounting flexibility, the stacking frames attach to the ELPMB80 (ELPMB76 Frame) and ELPMB83 (ELPMB84 Frame) Truss Adapter Bars for standard mounting or ELPMB78 Portrait Adapter Bar for portrait projection applications. Plus, both frames are compatible with the ELPMB85 Rail Adapter.

For added tilt adjustment and fine calibration capabilities, users can pair the frames with the ELPMB81 Tilt Adapter or ELPMB77 Tilt Adapter Plate. The tilt adapter plate can also be attached directly to the projector without the need for the projector frame.
