Flat Panel Conversion Kit (from Jumbo® CRT Mounts).

The Peerless-AV PLCK-1 SmartMount Flat Panel Conversion Kit is designed to retrofit existing Jumbo CRT ceiling-mount installations for flat-panel displays. Its component-based configuration uses a 1.5-inch NPT pipe connection and combines a tilt box, fixed-length extension column, and NPS coupler. The completed mount supports indoor displays from 32 to 90 inches with a maximum load capacity of 150 lb.

Ideal Use Cases

The PLCK-1 is suited to indoor installations where an existing ceiling-mount arrangement needs to be adapted for a flat-panel display. Peerless-AV identifies sports facilities, airports, lobbies, and retail environments as appropriate applications. Its ceiling-mounted form factor also makes it relevant where wall mounting is unavailable or where a display must remain elevated above public, customer, or operational areas. Support for displays up to 90 inches accommodates a broad range of commercial display sizes.

Why Choose This Model

This kit brings the principal retrofit components together under one model number. It includes the PLCM-2 tilt box, an EXT018 fixed-length extension column, an ACC109 1.5-inch NPS coupler, and instructions. The mount supports displays weighing up to 150 lb and provides both tilt and swivel adjustment. Its 1.5-inch NPT threaded-pipe configuration allows the ceiling-mount arrangement to be adapted to the requirements of a specific compatible installation.

The PLCK-1 is also VESA mount compatible and carries a dedicated mount-pattern compatibility classification. Peerless-AV specifies compatibility with 600 x 400, 75 x 75, and 100 x 100 mounting patterns. When used with a Peerless-AV PLP-UNL universal or dedicated display adaptor, it provides a configuration intended for flat-panel ceiling-mount retrofits.

Installation and Integration

The PLCK-1 is ceiling mountable and designed around 1.5-inch threaded-pipe connections. The ACC109 coupler connects with the included EXT018 extension column, while the PLCM-2 tilt box provides the display-positioning component. Assembly is required, and installation instructions are included in the package.

The assembled product measures 20 inches high, 5.52 inches wide, and 3.54 inches deep, with an approximate weight of 3.80 lb. Before installation, the display size, weight, mounting pattern, display adaptor, ceiling surface, and existing pipe configuration should be matched to the supplied specifications. This model is identified for indoor use.

Performance Highlights

The mount supports displays ranging from 32 to 90 inches and has a maximum load capacity of 150 lb. Its adjustable tilt extends from 5 to 20 degrees, allowing the viewing angle to be set for an elevated display. A maximum swivel angle of 360 degrees provides rotational positioning around the mounting axis. These adjustment capabilities support ceiling-mounted viewing arrangements in open commercial and public-facing spaces.

The black powder-coated finish supplies the specified exterior treatment. The product is VESA compatible and intended to support a display from a ceiling-mounted position.

What Makes It Different

The PLCK-1 is specifically configured as a conversion and retrofit kit rather than being presented as a single isolated mounting component. The included coupler, extension column, and tilt box form a coordinated package for adapting compatible existing installations. Its combination of a 150 lb load rating, support for screens up to 90 inches, adjustable tilt, and 360-degree swivel makes its positioning capabilities clear before installation.

The product is manufactured in the United States and is listed as TAA compliant. Its stated certifications and standards include RoHS, TAA, and VESA, while its environmental compliance references the Restriction of Hazardous Substances. Peerless-AV covers the PLCK-1 with a five-year limited warranty.

Final Assessment

The Peerless-AV PLCK-1 is a focused choice for converting a compatible Jumbo CRT ceiling-mount installation to support a flat-panel display. It is best matched to indoor projects requiring a 32- to 90-inch display, a load capacity of no more than 150 lb, 1.5-inch pipe integration, and adjustable tilt and swivel. The included retrofit components, black powder-coated finish, stated compliance credentials, and five-year limited warranty provide a clearly documented configuration for commercial ceiling-mount applications.
