SAFEPROOF DOME - Fire resistant

The SafeProof Dome is a Chatron Solar Light Tube dome model consisting of a pyramid-shaped polycarbonate dome, a layer of tempered laminated glass and an aluminum connection accessory. This robust construction allowed it to successfully pass the rigorous external fire tests in accordance with EN 1350-5:2016. As a result, the material obtained Broof certification (T1). This distinction makes it possible to differentiate Chatron’s product from others on the market, meeting increasingly demanding restrictions on building safety, especially with regard to fire resistance.
Furthermore, Chatron’s SafeProof Dome goes far beyond fire safety, offering a series of additional benefits compared to traditional flat glass domes on the market.

Benefits:

• Greater Natural Light Capture;
• Protection Against UV Rays;
• Efficient self-cleaning;
• Bird and Insect Deterrence Abroad;
• Reduction of Shading;
• Unparalleled Security;
• Better Thermal Performance;
• Total Condensation Elimination;
• Innovative Design;

Eleva Therm Dome - Solar Light Tube Raised on the roof

When, due to the need to avoid accumulation of snow, accumulation of water, to avoid shading, etc., the dome of the Solar Tube has to be raised beyond the roof, up to 50 cm for example, so to maintain the same thermal insulation as if the dome was in its normal position on the base of the roof, we will have to insulate the cylinder of the roof base on the outside with rock wool with the same characteristics as that used in the insulation of the roof. To externally protect this insulation, an aluminum sheet coating is applied, with an aluminum top and calendered sheet covering the insulation to the base of the roof.. + Read More

Crushing the Thermal Transmission Coefficient of a Solar Light Tube Installation (Solar Light Tubes – Sun Tunnel – Sun Pipe)

Installing a Solar Light Tube can be much more efficient than the best window on the market.

Why?

Because we combine maximum efficiency from project design to perfect installation.
How to make this happen?

We start by analyzing how the insulation of the house, the warehouse factory or any other place where the solar Light tube will be installed will be:

LEDin system

It involves the integration of LED lighting in the solar Light tubes, allowing efficient lighting 24 hours a day. During the daytime periods and with sun, the lighting of the space is all coming from the sun. As the night approaches or the day starts to get cloudier, depending on the desired version, the LED lighting starts to turn on and stay On or to perform dimming (depending on the version installed), in order to keep it if always the same level of lighting inside the space. - Read More

Motorized Shutter and controler for Solar Light Tube

With this new system from Chatron you can adjust, open and/or close the motorized damper at any time. You can also use CHATRON REMOTE to control several solar Light tubes.

“MAX LIGHT in AGGREGATOR” technology

Suitable for regions with low solar radiation.

The Solar Light Tube – Light Tunnel – Sun Pipe- Chatron has the “MAX LIGHT in AGGREGATOR” technology that allows for increased capture of natural light when it is most needed.

The “Aggregator device” brings together all the parts of the Solar Light Tube Kit and allows a perfect adaptation of the Max Light, covering the north half circle, increasing the capture of sunlight in winter, when the sun is low and when there is more need for it inside. of the building.

A specially studied mirror, conceived and directed to the perfect increase in the capture and introduction into the solar Light tube through the perfect interconnection of all the elements provided by the “aggregator device”.

Solar Light Tube Components

1. The dome is made of high-impact polycarbonate, with excellent fire-retardant characteristics and extremely robust, which allows them to withstand strong impacts. It has good UV radiation filtering. No maintenance required. Its geometric shape was developed for self-cleaning. Weather conditions such as wind and rain will clean the dome. On the other hand, the domes are subjected during manufacture to an anti-adhesion treatment.
2. Circular mirror to top off the solar Light tube hole on the building's interior ceiling. Allows you to disguise any imperfections resulting from the perforation of the building's roof, visible through the interior.
3. Accessory for angles at 30º, 45º and 90º. All can be regulated. Additional tube lengths in 625mm, 1250mm or other measurements on request.
4. The solar Light tube (in aluminum on the outside) is subject to the superposition of an inner layer in hot-rolled silver with high reflectivity (over 99.7%), thus preventing loss of light and allowing light to be transported over considerable distances. Chatron has already installed solar Light tubes with a length of up to 25 m and with low losses (less than 20% of its efficiency).
