The Chief CMA348 is the large-venue member of Chief's vibration isolating coupler family. Installed in line between two Chief CMS 1.5-inch NPT columns, its patented design limits the vibration that passes from the building structure into the lower column, so large-venue projectors hold a steadier image when HVAC equipment, crowds, road traffic or doors shake the ceiling. It is designed for suspended systems from 35 to 100 lbs, counting everything below the isolator: the lower column, the projector mount and the projector. Chief notes typical weights of about 4 lbs for an RPAU mount, 5 lbs for an RPMAU and 33 lbs for a VCMU, while CMS columns under 12 inches average 1 lb or less. The black finish suits dark ceilings and black hardware. TAA compliant.
