The Chief Mini 23 cm Pack is a comprehensive and versatile solution for ceiling-mounted projector installations. Combining three essential components—the CMS009 extension column, the CMS115 ceiling plate, and the RSMAU Mini Elite mount—this kit provides a robust and adjustable setup to secure your projector while optimizing its positioning.
An Extension Column for Optimal Height
The CMS009 extension column is the central element of this pack, offering a 229 mm (23 cm) extension between the ceiling and the projector mount. This length allows the projector to be lowered sufficiently for optimal projection while remaining discreet. Made from high-quality aluminum, this column combines lightness and strength, supporting an impressive maximum load of 226.8 kg. Its design includes a cable management system, enabling cables to pass through the interior for a clean and secure installation.
Secure and Versatile Ceiling Mounting
The CMS115 ceiling plate is designed to adapt to various ceiling types while ensuring a solid and secure attachment. With its four anchor points, it effectively distributes the load of the projector and the column. Its compact and aesthetic design blends seamlessly into most environments. The plate features a central 1.5-inch (3.81 cm) threaded connection compatible with the CMS009 column, ensuring a reliable link between the kit’s components.
A Universal and Adjustable Projector Mount
The RSMAU Mini Elite mount is the final component of this pack, offering a universal solution for securing your projector. This compact mount is a miniaturized version of Chief’s renowned RPA Elite model, retaining all its features in a smaller format. It is designed to accommodate a wide range of projectors weighing up to 11.3 kg.
The RSMAU stands out with its MicroZone adjustments, allowing fine and precise positioning of the projector. This feature is particularly useful for perfectly aligning the projected image with the screen. The mount offers a vertical tilt of ±15°, a horizontal rotation of ±3°, and a 360° swivel, providing maximum flexibility for projector placement.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
One of the key advantages of this pack is its design, which focuses on quick installation and easy maintenance. The RSMAU mount’s Q-Lock quick-release system allows the projector to be easily removed for maintenance or lamp replacement without losing the preset adjustments. This feature is especially appreciated in professional environments where downtime must be minimized.
The pack also includes an intelligent cable management system. Cables can be routed through the CMS009 column and the RSMAU mount, providing a clean and secure solution that enhances the installation’s aesthetics while protecting the connections.
Security and Durability at the Core of the Design
Chief has paid special attention to security in the design of this pack. The integrated locking system in the RSMAU mount provides theft protection, a crucial aspect in public or shared spaces. The durability of the materials used—aluminum for the column and steel for the mount—ensures exceptional longevity, even under intensive use conditions.
UL certification and compliance with TÜV and TAA standards attest to the product’s quality and reliability, offering peace of mind to installers and end users alike.
How can I determine if my projector is compatible with the RSMAU Mini Elite mount?
+
The RSMAU mount is designed to be universal and fit most projectors weighing up to 11.3 kg. Check your projector’s weight and available mounting points. If in doubt, consult Chief’s technical documentation or contact their customer service for confirmation.
Is it possible to use a longer or shorter column than the provided CMS009?
+
Yes, the CMS009 column can be replaced with other models from Chief’s CMS range. Just ensure that the new column is compatible with the CMS115 ceiling plate and the RSMAU mount, which is generally the case for products within the same range.
How does the integrated cable management system work?
+
The system allows cables to pass through the interior of the CMS009 column and the RSMAU mount. There are specific openings for cable entry and exit, enabling them to be effectively concealed from the ceiling to the projector.
What is the procedure for removing the projector for maintenance?
+
The RSMAU mount is equipped with a Q-Lock quick-release system. Typically, you just need to activate a safety lever and slide the projector out of the mount. This operation can be performed without tools and without losing the previously set positioning adjustments.

PRO range product with lots of possible options for color, height, diameter. Fine adjustments, very stable unlike my old stand that was constantly out of alignment, and very clever with its elements that assemble on screw threads and its sufficiently wide cable pass-through. It also has the advantage of being able to go through a suspended acoustic fiber ceiling without compressing it. The only thing missing in the proposed kit is the cover around the axis to hide the ceiling pass-through. Not cheap but that's the price of quality and machining.

Produit de gamme PRO avec plein d'options possibles de couleur, hauteur, diamètre.
Réglage fins, très stables contrairement à mon ancien support constamment déréglé et très astucieux avec ses éléments qui s'assemblent sur pas de vis et son passe-câble suffisamment large.
Il a également l'avantage de pouvoir traverser un plafond suspendu type acoustique en fibre sans le comprimer.
Il manque juste dans le kit proposé le cache autour de l'axe pour masquer la traversée de plafond. Pas donné mais c'est le prix de la qualité et de l'usinage.

Undoubtedly the best!
