Projection Screen Reflecta 87684 Manual 4:3

The Reflecta 87684 Manual projection screen provides a 4:3 viewing area with a viewable width of 2.92 m and height of 2.19 m. Featuring a manual pull-down mechanism and a two-tone metal cassette in black and white, this screen is designed for meeting rooms, classrooms and home installations that require a large, retractable projection surface. The product belongs to the CrystalLine series, which focuses on a balanced price/performance ratio, a reliable roller mechanism and a matte fabric that delivers a clear image for standard projection systems.

Advantages

The manual drive mechanism is durable and simple to operate, allowing controlled extension and retraction without electricity. The large 4:3 viewing surface suits legacy and presentation formats, while the matte screen fabric reduces glare and preserves image contrast. The black-and-white cassette offers a neutral installation appearance that integrates with typical room interiors and conceals the screen when retracted.

Suitable for

• Meeting rooms and conference spaces using standard 4:3 presentation content
• Classrooms and lecture halls where a large, retractable projection surface is needed
• Home cinema setups preferring a manual, non-powered projection screen
• Temporary or multi-use rooms that require a screen to be stowed when not in use

When it may not be suitable

This manual projection screen may not be the best choice where automated motorised retraction is required for frequent or remote-controlled operation. Additionally, if you need an ultra-high-gain, acoustically transparent, or custom-sized surface, the standard matte fabric and fixed 4:3 format may not meet specialized audiovisual requirements.

Key specifications

• Viewable screen width: 2.92 m
• Viewable screen height: 2.19 m
• Native aspect ratio: 4:3
• Drive type: Manual pull-down roller mechanism
• Cassette colour: Black and white
• Screen fabric: Matte projection fabric (CrystalLine series)
• Mounting: Wall or ceiling compatible (manual installation)

How to use

Mount the cassette securely to a wall or ceiling following the included installation instructions and local building norms. To use, grasp the screen tab or handle and gently pull the screen down until the desired height is reached; the internal mechanism will lock the screen in place. After use, lift the screen slightly to release the lock and allow the fabric to roll back evenly into the cassette. Avoid sudden releases to protect the roller mechanism and fabric surface.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the available wall or ceiling space and ceiling height to accommodate the 2.92 m × 2.19 m viewable area and cassette depth.
• Verify that a 4:3 aspect ratio fits your projector’s native resolution and the content you typically display.
• Check mounting surface strength; reinforced fixing points may be required for secure installation.
• Decide whether a manual mechanism meets your operational needs versus a motorised screen.

Usage recommendations

For best image quality, install the Reflecta 87684 screen at a distance and projector angle that match the projector’s throw ratio and lens shift. Keep the projection surface clean and free of dust; use a soft brush or microfiber cloth for occasional maintenance. When retracting, guide the screen evenly to avoid fabric skewing. For frequent public use, inspect mounting hardware and the roller mechanism periodically.
