+44 1329 848 175 Website

Application

Facade applications, glass roofs and conservatories.

Description

Steel curtain walling system with integrated screw channel.

Available in two variants and a range of system types.

Features and benefits:

  • Integrated drainage at the continuous gasket in three levels.
  • Can be assembled as a polygon curtain wall up to 45°.
  • A range of profiles are available dependent on project requirements.
  • Extensive system accessories.
  • Provides protection against corrosion.
  • System uses isothermal lines to avoid the formation of condensate and control surface temperature.

- THERM+ S-I:

  • Stepless thermal insulation by means of RAICO Insulating Block Technology.
  • Total load chain with approved connection, from the welding with the supporting structure and the glass load transmission to the screwing of the pressure profile.
  • Safe and easy glass load transmission for heavy panes up to 1500 kg.

THERM+ FS-I:

  • Sharp edged profiles due to small radii.
  • No welding needed for the curtain wall construction.
  • Integrated screw channel in tube reduces planning, manufacturing and installation costs.
  • Strip galvanizing of the profiles.
  • Profiles are all suited for mullion and transom.
  • Safe and easy glass load transmission for heavy panes up to 1000 kg.

  • Gradual adaptation of the insulation value.
  • Maximum thermal insulation up to Uf = 0.80 W/(m²K) including screw influence.
  • Certified passive house curtain wall.
  • Economic solution.

Transom and mullion gaskets.

Guidance for specification option:

  • Optimized shape for maximum thermal insulation and efficient fabrication.
  • Complete covering and sealing of the base profile.
  • Perfect and easy fitting on the structural profile (without silicone).
  • Two options of gaskets with flaps for transom and base drainage as well as draining within the continuous gasket at the structural connections.
  • Reliable drainage in two or three levels by simply notching.
  • Special accessories for all applications, e. g. transom and mullion sealing elements.

Interior gasket.

Guidance for specification option:

  • Type S for assembly with lateral guidance and fixation by a synthetic base profile.
  • Type L with lateral lips for visual optimization using big radiuses of structural profiles lateral guidance like type S.
  • Type D for direct glazing on the structural profile with fixation in the screw channel.

System accessories

Not required.
Solar protection fastening.

Guidance for specification option:

  • For all series I and V of the THERM+ systems.
  • All system widths.
  • Subsequent installation, including existing curtain walls and roofs, possible at any time.
  • For 20 to 64 mm infill thicknesses.
  • Only use in "pairs".

Scaffolding fixation.

Guidance for specification option:

  • All system widths.
  • For clipped cover profiles, visibly screwed pressure profiles and flat pressure profiles.
  • Remain hidden in the facade construction.
  • Subsequent and secure mounting of scaffolding always possible without any expenditure.

Fixture unit.

Guidance for specification option:

  • For all THERM+ systems in all face widths.
  • Fastening of very heavy loads (e.g. rendered balcony or large canopy).
  • High loadbearing capacity and reliable structural solution.
  • Vertical loads up to 12 kN per fixture unit.
  • Pressure profiles with clip on cover profiles or visibly screwed.
  • Aluminium fixture unit for individual handling, colour and surface coating.

Fastening brackets.

Guidance for specification option:

  • For all THERM+ systems of the series I and V.
  • Widths of supporting profile of up to 60 mm.
  • Available as finished brackets or as unfinished goods to be cut individually.

System types

Manufacturer's standard.
Passive House.

Guidance for specification option:

The standard THERM+ system can easily be upgraded to passive house certified standard with minimal additional components. Passive house projects can therefore be fitted with energy saving glazing in a generous, cost effective way, independent of their supporting projects.

Structural SG2.

Guidance for specification option:

The THERM+ Structural Glazing SG2 curtain wall systems feature the most intricate glazing technique. A narrow silicone joint is the only visible line between the insulation glass panes. Retention of the internal pane is enabled easily, quickly and securely with the use of SG glazing toggles. By utilising the SG insulating block, curtain walls achieve outstanding thermal insulation values.

Fire protection (E30/ EW30/ EI30).

Guidance for specification option:

Minor additions to the standard THERM+ system are all that is needed to construct fire resistant curtain wall in a range of protection classes. The maximum size of 1920 x 3000 mm glazing panels provides a new dimension in fire protection.

Burglar resistant.

Guidance for specification option:

All THERM+ curtain wall variants may be made burglar resistant in accordance with the German resistance categories RC2 and RC3 by adding a few supplementary system components. Providing maximum creative possibilities, all system widths and all types of pressure plates with clip on cover caps, visible screw fixings, as well as flat pressure profile plates (in RC2) may be used.

Ventilation

Pressure compensation via mullion – connection below/ on top.
Pressure compensation via mullion and synthetic sealing piece.
Pressure compensation of extra large transoms via pressure and cover profiles.
