E18 Flexible Media Facade Platform
E18 is SHLED's flexible LED mesh platform for large transparent media facades where image density, openness, weight, installation and control must be balanced as one architectural system.
Platform selection matrix
| Pitch | Pixels/m² | Transparency | Representative weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| P50 | 400 | 58.3% | 4.9 kg/m² |
| P55 | 331 | 62.4% | 4.2 kg/m² |
| P80 | 156 | 74.8% | 2.5 kg/m² |
| P100 | 100 | 80% | 1.7 kg/m² |
| P125 | 64 | 84.2% | 1.4 kg/m² |
How to choose the pitch
Viewing distance
Start with the actual main viewing zone. Fine pitch adds cost and complexity if the audience is too far away to see the additional pixels.
Transparency
Larger pitch generally increases openness, which can help protect daylight, outward views and the daytime architectural appearance.
Structural load
Weight should be evaluated together with wire rope, brackets, cables, power equipment and any secondary structure.
Brightness & environment
Direct sun, shaded facades, glass locations, humidity and temperature all affect the correct project configuration.
Selected E18 project evidence
Singapore SG60 · P55
625 m² water-surface event media installation with strong daytime visibility.
Kazakhstan · P50
1,500 m² commercial bank facade with 6,000 nit published brightness.
Installation and control
E18 is designed around project installation rather than a fixed cabinet structure. SHLED's technical manual documents wire-rope accessories, online/offline playback, breakpoint-resume transmission and network connection.

Control & System Architecture
E18 should be selected as a facade system: pitch, transparency, weight, power, control, mounting and maintenance access need to work together.
