Active Skylight Systems

Skylight

Skylight glazing characteristics and design options

Glazing characteristics:

  • Size up to 2200 x 5500 mm
  • Glass thickness to be defined and verified by statistic calculations
  • High efficiency monocrystalline Perc solar cells 158,75 x 158,75 mm
  • Any cell coverage and layout resulting in power range from 60 to 170 W/SQM
  • Energy and light transmission values depending on the cell coverage
  • The option with soft coating or solar control coating on pos. #2 or #3 toward the solar cells
  • More design options with colours and by random arrangement of the solar
  • Pre-selected colours: black, grey, white, blue, yellow, gold, bronze, and terracotta red. High degree of customization to reach specific aesthetic visual rendering with limited losses in efficiency
  • Random or specific arrangement of the solar cells to create a logo or an image

Glass Build-up:

Single laminated glass

  • Low iron toughened glass / interlayer + PV Cells + Interlayer / Clear toughened glass
  • Edge or back mounted junction box

Double glazed unit

  • Low iron toughened glass / interlayer + PV Cells + Interlayer / Clear toughened glass
  • Edge junction box
  • Aluminium or warm edge spacer | argon-filled cavity | silicone DC 3362 for optimal protection against high temperature

  • Ug-value 1,0 W/m².K

Triple glazed unit

  • Low iron toughened glass / interlayer + PV Cells + Interlayer / Clear toughened glass
  • Edge junction box
  • Aluminium or warm edge spacer | argon-filled cavity | silicone DC 3362 for optimal protection against high temperature
  • Clear toughened intermediate pane with low-e coating
  • Laminated clear inner pane with low-e coating
  • Ug-value 1,0 W/m².K

Integration system

Wet glazed systems, Structural glazing with toggle systems

Today, a growing number of architects are designing buildings with sleek, slightly tilted, and uninterrupted all-glass skylights. Easy to maintain as the rainwater and dust can easily flows away. Our innovative 4-sided Toggle Glazed (TG) system, delivers this highly desired aesthetic for number of applications.
It strikes a balance of form and function through its groundbreaking toggle design, which reduces installation labor, simplifies on-site logistics and enhances safety while providing superior aesthetics.

Aluminium profile system CW 60 Solar

The ultimate aluminium profile system for our active canopy and roof glazed system that offers an aesthetic pleasing, convenience room to pass the cables as well as high tech solution. The CW 60-Solar aluminium profile system is fully compatible with other aluminium profile system of the CW range from Reynaers Aluminium to provide a total solution for roof glazing.
This is a dedicated designed profile system that improve the installation and the maintenance of the photovoltaic system’s components as cabling, connectors, and edge junction boxes. The new face caps are designed with minimal height to avoid shading mask on solar cells.

Point fixed system

  • S 3000 DU
  • A spider system for point fixed architectural glass
  • Invisible and less obstruction, this is the main advantage of deploying this system for our active second skin façade systems. This spider is the perfect match between design and quality.

Application Range

  • Skylights
  • Glazed Roofs
  • Canopy

Electrical installation

All our active skylight and roof systems are supplied including the electrical installation up to the inverters. We therefor make an electrical study, supply system components up to the inverters, connect the glass units in series, complete the wiring between the Skylight and the inverter room and arrange the commissioning of the DC-side of the system.

System components

DC Wire sets

1x4² tailor-made double insulated single-pole wire sets assembled in the workshop with connectors on both ends for the connections between the glass panels.

String cables

1x6² double insulated single-pole flexible cables (class II) of 1x6² cross-section for the connections from the façade / skylight to the inverter room.

Inverters

Ideal inverter for large-scale commercial and industrial plants delivering extraordinary high yields with an efficiency of 98.4%. Highly flexible plant design thanks to Optiflex technology, two MPP inputs and a wide input voltage range.

DC Switch Panels

Electrical metallic board with emergency break wired and preassembled in the workshop, containing mainly MX + OF 220Vac emission coils for powering-off all bipolar phases of the various power supply cables from the PV generator.
