Adaptor For Epson Short Throw Projectors

The Peerless-AV ACC978 is a purpose-built mounting adapter for integrating compatible Epson, 3M, Promethean, and SMART Board projector configurations with select projector mount arms. Made from powder-coated steel, this white adapter supports loads up to 10 lb and measures 10.68 inches wide by 6.55 inches high by 0.45 inches deep. Hardware and instructions are included.

Ideal Use Cases

The ACC978 is intended for projector installations that require an interface between a compatible projector and a 3M, Promethean, or SMART projector mount arm. Supported Epson models include PowerLite 420, 425W, 430, 435W, 520, 520W, 530, and 535W projectors, along with the BrightLink 536Wi. Compatibility also includes the 3M SCP716, Promethean PRM-20, and SMART Board UF55 and UF65 projectors. This focused compatibility makes the adapter appropriate for replacing or integrating listed projectors in installations that use the corresponding mount-arm formats.

Why Choose This Model

Peerless-AV designed the ACC978 specifically as a mounting interface rather than as a general-purpose projector bracket. Its defined model compatibility helps identify whether it matches the intended projector before installation. The adapter has a maximum load capacity of 10 lb and is manufactured from steel. A white powder-coated finish coordinates with compatible white projector and mount-arm installations, while the specified rust-resistant construction supports long-term use. The product is supplied as one unit and carries a five-year limited warranty from the manufacturer.

Installation and Integration

The package contains the ACC978 adapter, required hardware, and instructions. The adapter is used between the supported projector configuration and the applicable 3M, Promethean, or SMART projector mount arm. Before installation, confirm both the projector model and its weight against the published compatibility list and 10 lb maximum load capacity. The adapter’s physical dimensions are 10.68 inches wide, 6.55 inches high, and 0.45 inches deep, with an approximate product weight of 2 lb. These measurements provide concrete reference points for checking the existing mounting arrangement and available installation space.

Because the ACC978 is an accessory interface, it does not change projector resolution, brightness, optics, connectivity, or image-processing capabilities. Those characteristics remain dependent on the installed projector. Its role is limited to providing the specified mechanical mounting interface for compatible equipment.

Performance Highlights

• Maximum supported load of 10 lb
• Steel construction with a white powder-coated finish
• Rust-resistant design
• Approximate weight of 2 lb
• Low-profile depth of 0.45 inches
• Hardware and installation instructions included

The adapter is identified as a mounting accessory for projectors and mounting arms. Its specifications center on mechanical compatibility, material, dimensions, finish, and supported load rather than electronic or optical performance.

What Makes It Different

The ACC978 addresses a defined integration requirement across several named projector families and mount-arm systems. Instead of introducing electronic conversion or adding projector functions, it supplies the physical interface needed for the listed Epson PowerLite and BrightLink models as well as specified 3M, Promethean, and SMART Board projectors. It is manufactured in the United States and is listed as TAA compliant. The adapter also meets RoHS requirements concerning the restriction of hazardous substances. These documented attributes make it possible to evaluate the product for installations where compatibility, country of origin, and stated compliance information are part of the purchasing criteria.

Final Assessment

The Peerless-AV ACC978 is a specialized steel mounting adapter for the supported Epson, 3M, Promethean, and SMART Board projector configurations. Its 10 lb load capacity, slim 0.45-inch depth, powder-coated white finish, included hardware, and five-year limited warranty define its practical role. For an installation involving one of the listed projector models and a compatible 3M, Promethean, or SMART projector arm, the ACC978 provides the specified mounting interface in a single accessory package.
