Application

  • Cassette awning suitable for large areas up to 18 m wide.
  • Face fixture, top fixture or eaves fixture.

Description

A full cassette awning with an appealing design. Customizable by mixing and matching the colour of the cassette with that of the end cap trim and the end cap insert. The cassette and frame are powder-coated; the cover profile is in the same colour as the cassette, this gives the unit a closed appearance even when the awning is extended. Comes with an elegant bracket cowling.

Features and benefits:

  • When closed the folding arms are protected from the weather by the cassette.
  • Arm technology with power transference by way of the high tensile strength bionic tendon made of high-tech fibres, achieving at least 50 000 flexions in tests by the Fraunhofer Institute.
  • Front profile with integrated gutter and hidden water drainage spouts.
  • The spring tensioners – which have been matched to the arm length – provide ideal cover tension.
  • Simple pitch adjustment via the bracket without the need to readjust the front profile.
  • Suitable for large areas.
  • Maximum dimensions 7000 x 4000 mm as a single unit or 13 900 x 3500 mm when coupled (width x projection).
  • Pitch adjustment ranges from 5º–35º or 36º–70º.
  • Three field coupled unit, up to 1800 cm width, available on request.
  • Wind resistance class 2 - up to Beaufort 5 (wind speed 28–37 km/h).
  • Ambient lighting and heating options.
