  • Can be used for openings for smoke ventilation; D+H Euro SHEV in accordance with EN 12101‑2; and for daily natural ventilation
  • With BSY+ motor and synchronized electronics controlled via microprocessor
  • High‑speed function (HS) for especially fast opening windows in case of fire (SHEV)
  • Direct control via 24 V DC
  • Option of up to 4 drives in one synchronous group
  • Low current consumption thanks to high efficiency
  • Option of cable infeed above and below
  • Drive unit can be changed from left to right
  • Running speed in CLOSED direction decreases to 5 mm/s (passive closing edge protection)
  • Time-controlled reversing when an obstacle is detected in the CLOSED direction (active closing edge protection)

  • Applications

    spacer

    • For automation of awning windows, hopper windows, casement windows, curtain wall vents or skylights.
    • For commercial, institutional and residential projects, including schools, universities, municipal buildings, offices, gymnasiums, homes, condos, and more.
    • Natural Ventilation systems, such as operable windows and skylights, save energy and lower operating costs by reducing air conditioning and heating use.
    • LEED credits for green building projects can be earned under Indoor Environmental Quality for Natural Ventilation, Daylighting and Views.
    • Smoke Evacuation systems reduce smoke, heat and casualties during a fire; AFI actuators are SHE certified.
