Description

The Brighten Up® Series Solatube® 290 DS 350 mm diameter tubular daylighting system pipes daylight from a dome on the rooftop via highly reflective tubing to a ceiling diffuser in an internal space or room.

An injection moulded, impact-resistant polycarbonate roof dome, fits onto a roof flashing upstand that is connected to 99.7% reflective, rigid tubing that directs the natural light to a double glazed ceiling diffuser or glass ceiling fixture. The tube assemblies at the roof and ceiling locations incorporate adjustable angle sections to allow the tube direction to be changed in order to avoid obstacles or accommodate the ceiling diffuser location. The Brighten Up® Series Solatube® 290 DS systems are designed to pipe daylight into both domestic and commercial applications, thus enhancing working and living environments, and reducing energy costs by enabling artificial lights to be switched off during daylight hours.

Features:

  • U-value (tested to BS EN ISO 12567-1 and BS EN 410): 1.3 W/m²/K.
  • Acoustic insulation value (tested to BS EN ISO 717-1): 38 dB Rw.
  • Light coverage: Up to 18 sq.m.
  • Recommended tube length (maximum): 9 m.
  • Output: Average 4541 lumens (based on 1200 hours per year out of the 8760 hours in a typical weather year, London latitude), maximum 8193 lumens (based on 1.8 m length).
  • LightTracker™ dome reflector system.
  • Raybender® 3000 Fresnel lens dome technology.
  • Standard Classic Vusion™ diffuser with prismatic lens.
  • The tubing material, Spectralight® Infinity, has 99.7% spectral reflectivity, providing the purest colour rendition and unrivalled light transmittance efficiency.
  • A ten year manufacturer warranty applies to all Solatube® daylighting system components. A five year warranty applies for all other electrical options unless otherwise stated.

Standard product features

Roof dome:

Transparent, injection moulded impact-resistant polycarbonate roof dome, TP(a) rated, incorporating UV screening up to 380 nanometres to prevent discolouration from solar radiation. Fire rated and hurricane impact tested. The dome incorporates patented Raybender® 3000 Fresnel lens dome technology and a LightTracker™ dome reflector system which combine to ensure maximum daylight harvesting at roof level.

Roof Flashing:

Flat roof flashing with a 150 mm parallel upstand providing watertight performance and straight forward installation.

Flashing insulator:

Neoprene flashing insulator seals and insulates the roof flashing from the internal building climate to eliminate roof flashing condensation.

Top tube assembly:

Injection moulded dome ring assembly with condensation filter and seal, connected to a 305 mm long 99.7% reflective Spectralight® Infinity tube that incorporates a 0–30° angle adaptor.

Ceiling tube assembly:

Injection moulded ceiling ring with twist-fit ceiling clamps, connected to a 305mm long, 99.7% reflective Spectralight® Infinity tube that incorporates a 0–30° angle adaptor.

Diffuser:

Classic Vusion™ diffuser with prismatic lens, secondary lens with neoprene seal, white ceiling trim.

Fixings and fasteners:

Aluminium tape, dome fastening kit, expansion joint seal, sealant.

Installation instructions:

Full colour A5 installation instructions.

Product Options

Diffuser or glass ceiling fixture:

  • OptiView® diffuser: This technologically advanced diffuser uses a multiple Fresnel lens system providing a stunning architectural look to deliver crystal clear daylight, with white ceiling trim.
  • JustFrost glass ceiling fixture: Contemporary stunning design with a single layer frosted tempered safety glass ceiling fixture with three silver-coated metal studs.
  • OptiView® glass ceiling fixture: This technologically advanced design uses the multiple Fresnel lens system providing a stunning architectural look to deliver crystal clear daylight, with a fully tempered safety glass ceiling trim.
  • TierDrop glass ceiling fixture: Triple layered tempered safety glass ceiling fixture with three silver-coated metal studs.

Roof flashings

  • Pitched roof flashing with a 150 mm parallel upstand and Solaflex Kit, providing watertight performance and straight forward installation.
  • Bespoke roof flashings are available for non-standard roof types including corrugated metal sheet roofing, thatched, green and commercial roofs. Contact manufacturer for further information.

Accessories:

- Dome security bars:

Stainless steel security bars insert into the flashing turret across the diameter of the opening. The bar is fastened using tamper-proof rivets and prohibits entry through the dome.

- Dome security kit:

Six rivets with protective nylon spacers which replace dome screws to reduce the possibility of the dome being removed.

- Intumescent fire collar:

For applications requiring compliance to BS476-20.

- Solatube® Daylight Dimmer™:

Ideal for bedrooms, presentation areas and "quiet rooms". The Solatube® Daylight Dimmer™ (CE approved) fits inside the tube, and butterfly valves controlled via the low voltage wall-mounted switch, allow you to control the amount of daylight coming through the Solatube® Daylighting System - from fully open to fully closed, or any point in between.

- Solatube® Electric Light Add-On Kit:

Provides the additional convenience of a switched light, rated at 75 W for night time use (bulb not included).

- 99.7% reflective Spectralight® Infinity extension tube, straight 610 mm long:

Extension tubes telescope together to give the tube length required to meet the install distance from roof dome to ceiling diffuser/glass ceiling fixture.

- 99.7% reflective Spectralight® Infinity 0–90° adjustable angle adaptor 580 mm long:

For more complex installations that require the tube path to change direction.
