NanoLux technology offers a very new application in daylighting. The main difference of NanoLux from other daylighting systems is, providing heat and sound insulation, thanks to the special nano-material inside. NanoLux Daylighting technology, compared to electrical lighting, provides high efficient lighting with low costs. NanoLux Sky is recommended for big and high areas like sales areas, exhibition areas, manifacturing areas etc.



Technology

Nano Technology

Aerogel material; produced by nano-technology, is a silica based heat insulation material within 99% air bubbles. The main property of aerogel in daylighting applications is transmitting the visual spectrum of daylight while filtering the UV rays and heat.

 

Heat and Light Transmittance

Nanolux Sky; thanks to the aerogel material inside, provides;

  • 80% Light transmittance per cm,
  • High heat insulation with the U Values between 1,30 W/m2K-0,48 W/m2K,
  • High sound insulation (%50 decrease of 100 Hz)

Light Distribution

Nanolux Sky; related to the particle structure of aerogel material, distributes the daylight homogeneously to interiors. Different from the usual skylights, Skylight provides a general lighting instead of regional lighting and prevent glare. Thus NanoLux reduces the use of electrical lighting and helps energy saving.

PRODUCT OPTIONS
Nanolux Sky

Nanolux Sky offers an optimum daylighting performance as it is highly heat and sound insulated. It is made of non flammable (ASTM D1929) and not smoke forming (ASTM E662) material and has a low weight(70-100 kg/m3). It reduces the need of air conditioning and lighting systems. It is eco-friendly and reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions. NanoLux is can be produced project based, in different dimensions and allows facade and roof applications.

Nanolux Sky Vent

Nanolux Vent is the ventilated version of Nanolux Sky which has the opening mechanism. It is produced project based and recommended for high and wide spaces.

Difference of Nanolux Vent from standard skylights;

  • It has 80% Light transmittance per cm.
  • Light is distributed homogeneously.
  • It provides natural ventilation.
  • It is made of unflammable material and weighs low.
  • It has heat and sound insulation.
  • It is suitable for facade and roof applications.

ACCESORRIES

Swatter

Nanolux Vent has a special swatter detail to prevent impurities from getting inside.

Remote Control

Nanolux Vent can be opened manuelly or by the remote control option.

Rain Sensor

Nanolux Vent model has an optional rain and wind sensor which closes the system automatically when the rain starts or strong wind occurs.
