SunDialer® WindowManagement® System
A Comprehensive, Cost-Effective WindowManagement System
- Two roof-mounted radiometers monitor the sun and sky conditions in real-time, automatically adjusting shades to prevent solar-heat gain, brightness, and glare
- Increase opportunities for natural light, saving up to 70% in lighting costs when paired with a daylighting system
- Controlling up to 12 shade zones with continuous minute/day/year analysis, SunDialer is designed to provide cost-effective solar shading for small-scale and retrofit projects
- Reduce solar-heat gain which decreases air-conditioning needs
- Alleviate brightness and glare which provides a more comfortable environment
- Through a controller based interface, easily locate and manually override any individual shade or shade zone based on occupant comfort preferences
Automation Delivers Precise Shading Control
- Shades adjust to various positions on the window corresponding to the sun’s position in the sky, microclimatic sky conditions, and building location, orientation, and geometry
- Shades are raised to maximize daylight when windows are in shadow and lowered when the sun is bright to increase comfort
- Innovative solar shadecloth weaves continue to provide a view to the outside even when lowered
- Operate in tandem with other manufacturers’ electric-lighting controls, allowing light levels to be adjusted based on the amount of daylight the shades allow into the space
- Automated shade control delivers significant reductions in peak-energy demands over the lifetime of the installation
Innovative, Research-Driven Performance
- SunDialer provides SolarEvaluation, utilizing proprietary algorithms, which analyze raw solar-sensor data to determine the sky condition – clear or cloudy
- PC-based software calculates the sun’s angle on each window in every zone, taking into account a window’s elevation, shape, and orientation that might obstruct sunlight
- SunDialer then adjusts the shade position on the window to manage both the amount of direct sunlight entering a space and the BTU levels on the glass
