Internal
Systems - T25 - T50 - T50W
|
|
Techtonic
internal domestic application is available with 25mm or 50mm aluminium slat,
with a 50mm wood slats option for a more fully furnished look in offices,
restaurants, boardroom or domestic use.
|
|
T50
with Aluminium slat, this is the standard blind and the most cost effective,
shown here with optional motor.
|
|
T25
Normally only used for smaller openings & shapes. Aluminium slat with
over 130 colour options available. On a conservatory, we suggest that
the correct balance is to use 50mm slat on the larger roof area and 25mm
venetian on the windows. Not available in timber slat.
|
 |
T50W
This is a wood slat option which is available only in 50mm slat width.
High quality Basswood is used which is sourced from renewable forests
in the USA. Basswood is the most suitable wood for manufacturing blinds
as it has a very even grain and of all woods, has the least tendency to
warp or bend. These features make Basswood the key element of quality
wood blinds. Wood is a natural product and has maximum tolerances which
are far lower than those of aluminium, (for example, the maximum length
of slat which may be used is far shorter than that of aluminium.) Extremely
popular in domestic conservatories and with designers, wood gives Techtonic
a completely different, beautifully furnished look. An extensive choice
of wood colours is available.

Internal
Systems - T80 - T88AV
|
|
|
T80
This has a heavy duty 80mm aluminium rolled edge slat which could be preferred
in larger scale areas. This system is not normally appropriate for domestic
use. The blind will reduce light levels down to around 200 Lux and is
suited to to areas used for audio-visual slide presentations. |
T88AV
A heavy duty extruded 88mm section that interlocks when closed. It gives
a good degree of dim out for film projection or gallery light level control
in addition to providing a fully adjustable sunscreen. With side masking
fitted, the blinds can also be fully closed to reduce light levels down
to 20 Lux and below.

External
Systems - T80X - T88XAV
|
|
Externally
mounted Techtonic NR T80X is the most effective method of reducing solar
heat gain through glazed areas, with reductions of between 80% and 90%
being achievable.
By
using wind baffles and special louvre clips, it has been demonstrated
that the external systems can withstand extreme weather conditions.
In
large botanical gardens, there is a need to control light as well as
temperature and humidity. Use of external Techtonic NR, means that a
variety of conditions, such as desert, tropical and temperate, can be
accurately monitored and controlled in one building.

Light
Control Solutions
In
recent years the international requirements for daylight control in museums
and galleries have become far more rigorous. Many galleries now need to
control light levels down to less than 20 Lux, enabling them to display
the widest range of exhibits and to attract prestigious international
temporary exhibitions.
Techtonic
NR T88XAV with interlocking extruded aluminium louvres and brush
seal surrounds has been developed specifically to meet these strict requirements.
In addition to providing a fully adjustable sun screen, the blinds can
also be fully closed to reduce light levels to 20 Lux and below. The high
level of performance achieved by Techtonic has meant that it has been
specified for and installed in a large number of this particular type
of building.
Accordingly,
Techtonic NR 88 is also ideal for lecture halls, schools,
operating theatres and multipurpose buildings, such as sports halls and
community centres, where significant light exclusion is required. Techtonic
NR 80 will also reduce levels down to around 200 Lux and can be suitable
for audio-visual slide presentations.

Control
Options
Most
domestic applications use electric control for convenience although
manual controls can be used where the areas covered are not too large
or if the roof is not too high. Electric control means that the whole
area can be adjusted easily from one switch. Manual options range from
a simple lever control, a cord control, or a gearbox which has a detachable
handle. The latter option is by far the most popular.
Electrically
operated systems have the motor located within the blind area and control
can be from a simple manual switch to a complex system linked to the
building services.
For
galleries, light level control systems allow the louvres to adjust to
maintain an even light level within a selected band width. For commercial
buildings less complex solar, thermostat or timer controls would usually
be specified. Our leaflet, “A Guide to Control Options for electric
blinds” describes the options in detail.
Automated
control can ensure that the blinds react to external conditions to produce
optimum performance. In commercial buildings certain areas may be provided
with manual overrides, (local switch), to the automatic system, to cater
for the occupants varying lighting or shading requirements.

Fins
Tectrix
aluminium fins were designed in the early 1970’s and with consistent
improvement over the decades now provide the most robust and functional
solution to problems of sunlight penetration. The aesthetics of Tectrix
Fins will enhance flat or curved building facades, combining form and
function, perfectly suited to the principles of modern day architecture.
Tectrix
Fins can be installed in a fixed position or operated in many ways from
manual to electric, remote or computer linked to building management
systems. Sun sensors and timers are also available.
