Future Automation – CHRST – TV Ceiling Hinge & Swivel with Telescope
The CHRST is a motorised ceiling hinge with a telescope and swivel, which lowers the screen out of the ceiling and turns it up to 180 degrees each way. It is plastered in using the supplied MDF edge trims, so the tray sits flush when closed. The CHRST is for indoor use, and the CHRST-M and CHRST-MO are the marine and outdoor versions. The screen is sold separately.

Features
Key points
- Limit switches for the closed position set themselves.
- An MDF edge is plastered in, so no flange shows on the ceiling.
- Only a small shadow gap shows around the closed lid.
- Has mechanical and electrical recovery, so it can be opened if third-party control fails.
