The Chief Mini 15 cm Pack is an all-in-one solution designed to simplify the installation of your projector on the ceiling. This complete kit includes three essential components: the 152 mm CMS006 extension column, the CMS115 ceiling plate, and the RSMAU Mini Elite projector mount. Together, these components provide a robust, flexible, and aesthetically pleasing solution for securely suspending your projector.
The CMS006 extension column, the centerpiece of this pack, is designed to lower your projector to the ideal height. Measuring 152 mm in length, this fixed extension column is part of Chief’s Speed-Connect CMS range, renowned for its ease of installation and reliability.
Made from high-quality aluminum, the CMS006 offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It can support an impressive load of up to 226.8 kg, making it compatible with most projectors on the market, from compact models to larger ones.
The column features a 1.5-inch NPT threading at each end, allowing for a secure and standardized connection with the ceiling plate and projector mount. This universal mounting system greatly simplifies installation and ensures optimal stability for the entire setup.
The CMS115 ceiling plate serves as the anchor point for your installation. Designed with aesthetics and functionality in mind, this plate offers a compact and elegant design that blends seamlessly with all types of ceilings.
Constructed from aluminum for a combination of lightness and durability, the CMS115 can support the same maximum load as the CMS006 column, up to 226.8 kg. This high load capacity ensures a secure and long-lasting mount, even for the heaviest projectors.
One of the key features of the CMS115 is its integrated cable management. It allows cables to exit through the top of the plate via a dedicated port, ensuring a clean and organized installation. This feature is particularly appreciated in professional environments where aesthetics play an important role.
The plate is also equipped with Chief’s exclusive All-Points security system at the column connection point. This feature provides additional protection against theft, a significant advantage for installations in public or semi-public spaces.
The RSMAU Mini Elite projector mount is the final component of this pack, and it’s far from the least important. It is a miniaturized version of Chief’s renowned Elite RPA mount, offering the same advanced features in a more compact format.
Designed for projectors weighing up to 11.3 kg, the RSMAU Mini Elite is ideal for most compact and medium-sized projector models. Its universal design allows it to adapt to a wide range of projectors, regardless of brand or model.
One of the standout features of this mount is its micro-adjustment system. This functionality enables precise and quick adjustments to the projector’s position, ensuring perfect alignment of the projected image. Independent adjustments for tilt (up to 15° vertically), roll (up to 3° horizontally), and yaw (360° rotation) provide total flexibility to achieve the ideal projection angle.
The RSMAU Mini Elite also incorporates Chief’s Centris technology, which allows effortless positioning of the projector. This technology automatically adjusts to support different projector weights, making installation and subsequent adjustments much easier.
One of the main advantages of the Mini 15 cm Pack is the ease of installation it offers. Each component has been designed to integrate perfectly with the others, creating a cohesive and easy-to-assemble system.
The quick-connect/disconnect system of the RSMAU Mini Elite mount is particularly appreciated. It allows easy access to the projector for maintenance or lamp replacement without affecting preset adjustments. This feature is a real time-saver for regular users.
Integrated cable management at every level of the installation (ceiling plate, column, and mount) ensures a clean and professional setup. Cables are concealed throughout the entire path, from the ceiling outlet to the projector, enhancing both the aesthetics and safety of the installation.
Chief has paid special attention to the security and durability of this pack. All components are certified by independent organizations such as TÜV and UL, ensuring compliance with the strictest safety standards.
The integrated locking system on the RSMAU Mini Elite mount adds an extra layer of security, effectively protecting your projector against theft. This feature is particularly valued in public or semi-public environments.
The quality of the materials used and the precision of the manufacturing process ensure exceptional longevity for the entire installation. Chief also offers a 5-year warranty on this pack, reflecting its confidence in the durability of its products.
The Chief Mini 15 cm Pack is designed to be universal and compatible with most projectors on the market. However, it is important to check the weight of your device, which must not exceed 11.3 kg to be compatible with the RSMAU Mini Elite mount.
The CMS006 column included in this pack has a fixed length of 152 mm. If you need to adjust the height after installation, you will need to replace this column with a longer or shorter model from Chief’s CMS range.
Chief has designed this pack with a focus on security. All components are certified by independent organizations and can support loads well above the weight of standard projectors. Additionally, the integrated locking system provides extra protection against theft.
Installing the Chief Mini 15 cm Pack generally requires only standard tools. However, it is recommended to consult the provided installation manual to identify any specific tools that may be needed depending on your ceiling configuration.
