Phantom TA Series Contour Projector
The Phantom Contour Projector TA Series (top access design) is perfect for custom applications that require a smooth ceiling appearance. This model is used when access from below is not practical or you want to minimize the ceiling penetration by performing a custom template installation similar to the Wendel technique. Phantom Contour Projectors are designed by a professional installer and have been engineered so a novice, do it yourselfer or qualified electrican can successfully illuminate art. The patented mounting method, simplified optical system and the ability to use both shutters and custom templates make this one of the most versatile and awesome art lighting fixtures on the market today. By shaping the light to only the canvas, the art takes on a "Lighted from within" look that can only be seen to appreciate. Only hand cut templates may be used with this housing. Contact a local lighting agent or distributor for more information.

Each Phantom Projector comes with three different shutter assemblies that are specially designed to compliment a particular beam configuration by adjusting the light to follow the curvature of the lens. This allows for clean, straight lines, regardless of the aiming angle. |

A Metal Slide is used on custom cut templates that contour the light to multiple or irregular objects such as lighting sculptures. To illuminate multiple objects on the same wall they must be installed in a collage format. |

A metal gobo is used for projecting black and white images or patterns to create a theatrical effect such as clouds, leaves or structural shapes. Manufactured like a stencil, all elements of the metal gobo design must be connected with tabs to the outer ring of the gobo. Over 700 patterns are available. |
A glass gobo is used for projecting color images, patterns or logos to create a refined and professional look. Silk Screened Glass Gobos are made on quartz glass using a unique coating silk screened onto the base from digital files. This “painted” coating allows your design to avoid “tabbing” needed in custom steel gobos. |
