Ambient Light Rejecting Electric Screen
Polar Max Tension
The Polar Max Tension is an electric retractable projection screen that utilizes our award winning, ISF-Certified Polar Star® ambient light rejecting material. The Polar Max includes a tab-tensioning system that provides a flat, taut surface. Infrared (IR) and Radio Frequency (RF) remotes are included, a detachable wall box controller, and wired and wireless 12-volt trigger capability. The retractable design provides a big screen performance without dedicating wall space to exclusively one purpose, enabling the viewer to enjoy greater versatility with a disappearing screen when not in use.
Screen Material
- Polar Star® 1.3 Gain angular-reflective material
- Four key benefits to Polar Star
- Ambient Light Rejecting (up to 85% filtration)
- High Contrast (Retains black levels and color saturation)
- Directional (angular) reflectivity (wont’ scatter light)
- Polarized for Passive 3D applications
- 4K/8K Ultra HD, HDR Ready
- Not compatible with Ultra-short throw or Short-throw projectors
- Standard black masking borders absorb projector overshoot while enhancing perceived visual contrast
- Certified by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF) for accurate color points, dynamic range, and color temperature
Design, Installation and Controls
- Durable black casing with mounting hardware included for wall, ceiling, or suspended installation
- Floating mount brackets slide horizontally allows an easy alignment for a flush wall/ceiling installation on wood studs
- Tab-tension design helps maintain a flat ripple-free projection surface
- Plug & Play design with built-in low voltage control system, no hardwire installation required
- Includes handheld Infrared (IR) and Radio Frequency (RF) remote controls, and a wall box controller for manual on-wall operation.
- User-friendly programmable vertical drop position for easy installation
- Wall box controller is detachable for a clean look while maintaining RF & IR functionality
- Built-in selectable channels allow one RF remote programming to control multiple screens and prevent interference
- 12v trigger feature allows the screen’s UP/DOWN operation to synchronize with the projector’s power cycle
- Wired 12v trigger capability via wall box controller
- Wireless 12v trigger capability via Radio Frequency remote control
Notice to Installer:
Please use the following installation instructions to obtain superior optical performance from the Polar Star® Angular Reflective ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) Screen.
- Angular-Reflective material is not compatible with ultra/short-throw projectors
- Minimum lens throw ratio 1.5x image width
- Ambient light must not come from the same direction as the projector
Since angular-reflective means that the projected image will reflect at the mirror-opposite angle, it is important to position the projector so that the viewer will get the best possible image.
- Step 1: Establish the general “eye level” of the viewers
- Step 2: Set the appropriate projection level
- Step 3: Adjust the screen height level and projection angle
Input Angle (A) = Output Angle (B) aligns with the viewer’s angle
