SPECIAL
PROJECTS 7
Another
project using the IBS/ERCO System
The
Audi complex - Sweden (with manufacture & installation
by Sun Shading Systems.)
As
already mentioned HERE,
this system uses just one motor to control the entire
blind span. The fabric is in one piece, with no spaces
for intermediate brackets, allowing 100% coverage of your
windows.
The
IBS / ERCO system is designed for installation vertically,
or on surfaces with a minimum inclination of 25 degrees,
and is ideal for blackout situations, since the construction
has few joints.
The
Project:
How
do you give heat and solar gain protection to a rooflight
that's in excess of 30 metres wide x 6 metres drop,
at an angle and on a curve.
The
Answer:
- 1
x Roller Blind
- 1
x Large piece of very special fabric
- 1
x Special Motor with remote operation
- Plus
the IBS/ERCO team.
The
Result:
A
massive reduction in solar heat gain, accompanied by a similar
reduction in solar glare. All of which results in a more
comfortable retailing area, increased sales, and a better
environment for staff.
Please
note that this installation uses no intermediate guides
and no spaces between blinds, which would allow solar heat
transfer or glare.
In
addition, the project uses just one motor to operate a blind
of 180 square metres. (Normally, you would expect to use
a minimum of 6 motors for this kind of coverage. Which means
reduced wiring and fewer control units.)
