Description

Chief CPA380 Truss Ceiling Adapter

Overview

The Chief CPA380 is a robust steel adapter designed to securely mount AV equipment, such as projectors or displays, onto standard 2-inch (50mm) O.D. truss structures. This accessory is critical for mobile AV setups, trade show booths, and stage productions where equipment must be suspended from temporary or modular trussing. It provides a stable, reliable interface, ensuring your display or projector remains safely positioned for optimal viewing angles and operational integrity. The CPA380 model is engineered for straightforward integration into common truss systems.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with standard 2-inch (50mm) outside diameter (O.D.) truss systems. It is designed to interface with Chief projector mounts and display mounts that feature a 1.5-inch NPT interface. Verify your existing mount's compatibility with a 1.5-inch NPT pipe thread before purchase. It is not intended for direct mounting of displays or projectors without an intermediary mount.

Installation Notes

Installation requires securing the adapter to the truss using appropriate clamps (not included) and then attaching the mount via the 1.5-inch NPT threaded post. Ensure all connections are tightened to manufacturer specifications to prevent slippage or movement. The adapter is rated for static loads; dynamic load ratings should be confirmed based on the combined weight of the adapter, mount, and display/projector.
