Automatic systems for windows. Automatic opening of plastic windows

Hide

The technologies that are offered to consumers today have taught people to be picky and a little lazy. Take, for example, a TV: its existence is no longer conceivable without a remote control. What about windows? Modern PVC structures are very convenient, but perhaps they can also be set in motion with one press of a button, without leaving the sofa?

It really is possible. Today, automatic window opening is not so rarely used. Such widespread additional function I didn’t receive it only because it appeared relatively recently. Currently, ordering the installation of such a mechanism on your windows is not at all difficult.

Why do you need automatic window opening?

Remote window control

For those who are already accustomed to comfort in everything, such a question will not occur to them. Simply necessary! After all, it's convenient. But there are people who do not like such innovations at first. Like, why relax completely? You can do everything as before, without the remote control.

In many cases, you can actually do without it. But it will still be much more convenient with it. Sometimes it is completely necessary.

The benefits of automatic window drives

Controlling window shading from a distance

· Adjusting the “weather in the house” - the home climate - at any time of the day, quickly and easily. Not everyone has air conditioning in their apartment. But many are familiar with the situation when the temperature “jumps” several times during the day. This can happen due to uneven heating supply, on cold days when you have to use a heater, or in the summer heat. It is difficult to accurately guess the temperature at which to stop. Therefore, you have to open and close the windows several times a day and adjust the level of ventilation.

Automatic opening windows in the attic

· If the room is on sunny side and there is a dimming function, the remote control will also help you adjust the lighting level. When blinds and windows automatically roll up - or rather, close and open - it can be done quickly and easily. For example, when you sleep during the day and excess lighting just gets in the way. After all, it’s much easier to press one button than to get up and walk somewhere, even just a few meters.

· An automatic window opening system is also indispensable for those who have children. Everyone who lives above the first floor does not want to let their child near the windowsill again, even if he is already 5-9 years old. But children at this age are already left alone at home, even if only for an hour. They may well need to open the window slightly. It's much calmer if they do it from a distance.

· Automation will be very useful in retirement homes. In this case, it’s not even worth discussing the fact that it is many times easier for them to use the remote control.

Automatic windows are activated in case of fire

· Plastic structures are also installed in enterprises. Almost every gym, fitness center, store, entertainment complex and other similar premises are equipped with them. A modern mechanism for automatically opening windows is simply necessary there due to the huge size of the openings. Doing everything manually is difficult.

· Automation is appropriate in enterprises and large buildings for use in fire protection systems. If the fire alarm sensor is triggered, the windows in the burning room are blocked, and in others they are opened, which ensures smoke retention and access fresh air. Automatic switching between windows occurs, minimizing the consequences of a fire.

· Very convenient for hard-to-reach places - under the ceiling, in the attic, and so on.

· Also, automatic systems for windows help extend their service life. The mechanism always opens carefully, the load on it is calculated with absolute precision. This is not at all the case when employees or household members either slam the transom or pull it harder than it should. The structure will last longer - perhaps even several years.

Automatic closing of windows and additional functions

Roof windows can be conveniently opened using the remote control

Such mechanisms do not always have only one function - closing and opening by pressing a button. As is the case with fire protection systems, it is possible to install special sensors that will regulate the automatic closing of windows if necessary.

Each mechanical system has its own set of functions. It is selected directly upon purchase. It is better to contact those companies that offer a truly impressive range, since this does not limit the buyer’s choice. Managers will explain the purpose of all the items, and you will be able to determine which ones you need and which ones are definitely not useful.

Controlling blinds using the remote control

The most common use of an automatic window lock is to protect against moisture. For this purpose, so-called rain sensors are installed on the outside of the structure, which will send a signal to close as soon as drops begin to fall on the profiles and glass. Getting the inside wet can damage the structure, and if there is hail and rain outside, the room will also suffer. That's why automatic closing windows will be useful in this case.

Control with big amount functions can usually be programmed manually. This means that you can disable some of them, and not only leave the rest, but also set them for a certain time. For example, turn on ventilation while you are away from home for a couple of hours. Then automatic opening windows and their subsequent closing will occur on time and without your participation.

Electric window drive

Many systems operate wirelessly, as they take energy from specially installed solar panels. Sometimes windows are automatically minimized in case of strong wind on the street.

When else might ventilation be necessary without your participation? Remember the transoms and frames that were there before. They always had to be glued for the winter, insulated, puttyed and the cracks painted over... And all because drafts bothered people. Modern technologies installations of PVC structures, and the structures themselves, eliminate blowing.

Electric drive

If you are away from home for a long time, for example, on business trips, automatically opening windows will ventilate as well as an air conditioner. This will prevent air stagnation indoors. There is no need to worry about safety - they will be in ventilation mode, and only at a certain time. Additionally, you can install burglary protection.

You can also purchase and install an automatic dimming window that will regulate the amount of light. Very useful feature for rooms with large openings and those located on the sunny side. There is nothing to say about automatic opening of windows in case of fire for ventilation and smoke escape - for organizations this is the best solution.

Automatic window openers: technological features

Why do windows minimize automatically, what mechanism controls them? They are opened and closed using electric drives. They can be various types depending on what the operating principle is and where you plan to use them.

Chain drives

often used in programmable systems when the window closes automatically, without human intervention. Easy to manage. Compact system allows the use of such a mechanism in almost any type of transoms and profiles.

Rod actuators

Often used for attics. The main direction is large PVC structures, which require force to open. The rod drive is capable of not only holding them, but also opening them to a greater width.

Rack drives

Automatic opening system for roof windows

Just like rod ones, they are convenient for attics and industrial buildings, for large rooms and large openings.

There are several more options. To decide which automatic window openers are needed in a particular case, a consultation with a manager, coupled with information about the premises for which they are purchased, usually helps. Today, “smart windows” are already a reality. So why not use it?

/ Remote window opening systems

Remote window opening systems are designed to control the shutters from a distance manually or programmatically. Window control drives have long been used in production as an element of smoke removal and automatic ventilation systems.

Window drives are actively used in offices and residential premises - they are installed on hard-to-reach sashes and transoms. The mechanism is mounted directly on the sash, controlled manually (mechanical drive), from a control button or from a remote control (electric drive).

Types of window drives

Transom devices

The mechanism is intended exclusively for manual opening of transoms located at an inaccessible height, on a flexible or rigid rod. The simplest and a budget option remote transom opener. The warranty does not apply, because service life directly depends on operating conditions!

Chain drives

Electric drive with chain mechanism. Opening occurs due to the pushing force of the chain. Housing protection degree IP20. Supply voltage 24 V or 230 V. Wide shutters or transoms are equipped with double electric drives (tandem).

Rod actuators

They are used in production in automatic smoke removal systems, skylights and contaminated premises. The degree of protection of the hull is IP55. Increased resistance to dust and moisture. Supply voltage only 230 V. Pushing force 450 N

Rack drives

The most powerful, reliable and slowest electric drive. Used to control heavy sashes in industrial and commercial facilities. Can be operated in tandem with one or more passive drives (DUO or TRY).

The remote opening mechanism can be installed on aluminum, wood and metal-plastic windows, including on already installed structures.

Electric window drives can work in conjunction with control units, weather stations, rain, wind, light sensors and others. For example, at a given time you can configure the opening of the shutter for ventilation, raising or closing the blinds.

The most common window automation options are:

Electric drive (Italy/Germany) + Button = 16,500 rub.

Electric drive + button + radio control + remote control = 32,000 rub.

Helpful information

Remote control of windows is a technology that makes life more comfortable, makes it possible to open the sashes in hard to reach places more comfortable. Electric drives are often used in technological projects, for example, as a “smart” home. The TBM-Market company offers big choice drives for windows from Italian manufacturers Giesse, Maxbar, whose products meet high international standards and have a long service life.

Advantages of window drives

Electric window opening systems are more complex and expensive mechanisms than lever options. But at the same time, convenient operation is taken into account, because it is enough to press a button on the remote control for the sash to open. The remote control panel can be wireless or wired, but when connecting all the automation, it may not be useful. Ventilation will be carried out automatically.

The advantages of remote control include:

  • comfortable system management;
  • opening heavy and large double-glazed windows without serious physical exertion;
  • setting the width of the sash tilt from full opening to slot ventilation;
  • reliable and hermetically sealed closure of the sash using a locking mechanism;
  • opening double-glazed windows that are located at a distance of 4 meters or more above the floor level;
  • extending the service life of the fittings, as the equipment operates smoothly and silently, without jerking or using force;
  • control of “weather in the apartment”;
  • If there is a dimming function, you can also adjust the lighting level.

Remote control of window systems, together with automation, makes it possible to provide a flow of street air when there is smoke or to maintain the desired microclimate inside a home or office. Along with the buttons there is a console for adjusting multi-sensors.

Characteristics of drives for transoms

Opening windows is done using different electrical appliances, the most popular are:

  • Electric chain drives. They are suitable for controlling top-, middle- and bottom-hung transoms, as they have a low lifting force - from 300 W. The main advantages of the system are small dimensions, quick installation and price. The opening of the sash is carried out by extending the chain, where the links bend only in the same direction, and after the operation they are rigidly blocked.
  • Rack type Allows you to withstand heavy loads. Such systems are used to equip large, massive double-glazed windows, where it is necessary to apply significant force when opening window sash. Drives are characterized by low speed but more powerful operation. You can use rack and pinion mechanisms with windows different types. Compared to chain equipment, this option has a high cost.

Automation for opening windows can be mounted on products made of different materials: aluminum, wood, plastic. If desired, the drive is connected to the system fire safety through a regular console or directly, and are equipped with indoor microclimate support sensors.

Automatic window openers in greenhouses

A greenhouse is a common way to grow agricultural products. To obtain a high and high-quality harvest in a greenhouse temperature regimerequired condition. This problem can be solved different ways. You can install a thermometer in the greenhouse and independently regulate the temperature by opening and closing the windows manually. But the best option will buy a drive for opening transoms and ventilating the greenhouse.

Thanks to automatic openers, all necessary parameters are maintained in the greenhouse:

  • maximum efficient ventilation;
  • temperature regime;
  • humidity.

In the room for growing plants, a special climate is formed that promotes their growth.

How to choose an auto opener for a greenhouse

Mechanisms for ventilating greenhouses are divided into two main groups:

  • electrical,
  • hydraulic.

When choosing an automatic system for opening windows or transoms in a greenhouse, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the room, on the basis of which you can make the appropriate choice. Here are some factors to consider when choosing an automatic hydraulic system:

  1. Financial question. Several thousand rubles - prices for quality device. You should consider whether you are willing to spend that amount of money or not.
  2. If you decide to buy a system, you need to pay attention to the weight of the window or transom that the automation can open. 5-7 kg – average limit. This indicator is quite enough to open a window in a greenhouse.
  3. Greenhouse frames are different and cannot support any weight. When purchasing an automation, remember this and look at how much weight the device itself has.
  4. It is more convenient if the automatic opener provides for adjusting the temperature at which it starts to operate; read about this indicator in the instructions or check with our managers.
  5. Before purchasing, measure the opening angle of the window or vent in the greenhouse. This is one of the main indicators of a hydraulic device, which is indicated in its technical characteristics.
  6. If there are frequent winds in the place where the greenhouse is located, it is better to buy an automatic machine with an anti-hurricane breakdown system.

To ensure safety, many of our clients purchase electric smoke removal drives for transoms. By purchasing Aprimatic greenhouse automation, you can save a lot of precious time!

Automatic window opening is the future of modern window technologies. IN last years The demand for it is constantly growing, this is due to improvement and development window systems. Automation has become widely used in private homes, and it’s hard to imagine industrial facilities without it. It can not only perform the simple function of opening and closing a door, but now it’s a whole system to which it is possible to connect wind and rain sensors, as well as fire alarms. . On special wide windows, it is possible to install several drives at once to improve the pressure and correct opening and closing of the sash.

Advantages of using automatic window opening

Workshops, factories with large windows and heavy transoms, which are located on high altitude, they cannot be opened manually. All these industries today use automatic opening. One of the advantages of using automatic window opening is the ability to connect it into a whole system. Moreover, they are so perfect that if one of several drives fails, the automation blocks the ability to close and open the transom sash to avoid damage to the fittings. For example, you can connect with fire alarm, so that when the signal is triggered, the windows open and smoke can escape outside. Also, for some enterprises the use of a weather block will be relevant. It includes rain and wind sensors that analyze weather and at any moment are ready to give a command for emergency closing of the transom.

IN Lately automation is increasingly being used in apartments and private houses, especially in upper floors where skylights can be placed. We have all encountered a situation where we had to stand on a window sill or stool in order to open a transom or a high window; this takes a long time and causes us a lot of inconvenience. Moreover, this requires considerable dexterity and strength, and the strong physical impact when opening and closing a window significantly reduces its service life, and automation is capable of dosing the load on the fittings and the double-glazed window as a whole. Modern automatic drives have many advantages:

  • Large selection of different drives (chain, rack, rod, scissor)
  • Convenience, reliability and ease of installation
  • High performance properties that allow the drive to be installed on almost all designs and types of windows
  • Possibility to equip with various additional sensors
  • In the case of a transom large sizes You can maximize the pressure along the entire perimeter of the sash

Let's summarize. Ease of use, comfort and convenience - these are the simple, but no less important qualities that a client receives when he decides to install such systems. Automatic window opening is the first step towards creating your “ smart home", keep up with the times.
