🎒 Portable Projection Made Easy: How Fan-Cooled Enclosures Simplify AV Setup


Fan-cooled projector enclosures offer fast, lightweight protection for mobile AV setups. Perfect for rental, staging, and on-the-go projection jobs


đźš› AV on the Move

In the world of live events, pop-up activations, and mobile projection, speed is everything. You need gear that sets up fast, tears down faster, and keeps your investment protected in unpredictable conditions.

That’s where SSI’s Integrator Fan-Cooled Enclosures shine.

Built for portability and performance, these enclosures are a must-have for AV pros who move between locations and need lightweight, dependable projector protection—without overengineering the solution.


đź§ł Why Mobility Matters for Projector Protection

Projection setups on the move often face:

  • Limited load-in/load-out time
  • Varying ambient conditions (dust, airflow, mild moisture)
  • Quick rigging on truss, scaffolds, or ground mounts
  • High-value projectors being reused night after night

Without protection, even minor issues like dust intake, spilled drinks, or unexpected drizzle can lead to damage or costly downtime.

A fan-cooled enclosure keeps projectors safe without the bulk or complexity of fully climate-controlled systems.
