Panel
Systems
HunterDouglas® Panel Systems for
Sun Control offer excellent design,functionality and comfort withmultifunctional louvre systems.
Panel Systems can be installed in a
projected or parallel orientation to
the façade or designed in relation to
the angle of the sun.

Panel Systems
In line with style

DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
HunterDouglas ® Panel Systems within the Sun Louvre
product range, give architects the freedom to choose theright system to meet aesthetic, performance and comfort
criteria.
Create an elegant, light appearance with gently curved/
segmented edges with aluminium rollformed panels 84R,
70S and 132S. Almost all HunterDouglas ® Panel Systems
can be mounted on the same substructure and projectedhorizontally, vertically or sloped.
DURABILITY
The high quality components, used to manufacture
the Panel Systems, deliver high performance and low
maintenance: products built to last.

EASY INSTALLATION
Panel Systems are easy and quick to install with very few
tools required. All systems can be installed using the same
extruded aluminium substructure.
Steel wall brackets fitted to the façade ensure the carrier
profiles with brackets or stringers are easily fixed in place.
Panels are snapped into place on the brackets or stringers
without tools.

All Panel Systems (84R, 70S/132S) are aluminium
single skin panels with a range of support structures.
Horizontal and vertical projections come in a varietyof panels and modulations to meet the project
specification and design.

CONTENTLIGHT, HEAT & ENERGY
Because great looks are not enough, Hunter Douglas
has developed computer simulation and calculation
tools to ensure optimal shading performance.
Considering location, building orientation, pre-definedbuilding requirements and local weather data, ourproject support team can analyse and custom-optimise
the Sun Control system for each project.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The HunterDouglas ® 84R Panel System
is a classic system ideal for straight,
curved or sloped façade applications
and has an elegant and light appearancewith smooth rounded edges.
INSTALLATION
HunterDouglas ® 84R Panel System iseasy and quick to install with a minimumof tools required. When the steel wall
brackets* are fitted to the façade, thecarrier profiles with (pre-fixed) brackets
and spacers or stringers slide over thewall brackets and are easily fixed with abolt-through connection. The C-shaped
panels (in full length) are clipped on to
the brackets.
A wide range of carrier profiles with
fixed or variable modulation is available
to ensure that optimal shading angles
and openness are achieved for eachapplication. 84R Panel Systems can also
be used as ventilated façades.

DESCRIPTION
For the 84R, 70S and 132S Panel
Systems there is a variety of (self­
suppor­ting) extruded carriers available.
The 84R Panel System also has
stringers available (see page 7).
SELF SUPPORTING CARRIERS:
To apply the SLR-self supporting
carriers, only a wall bracket* is required.
Carriers can be fixed directly on thewall-bracket, except the SLR-10.
SLR-10 is fixed directly on the façadewith the direct fixing clip (verticalinstallation) or on a rectangular hollow
section (horizontal installation).
The extruded aluminium profiles of the
SLR-system are available in:- natural anodised finish- mill finish to be powder coated /anodised in any colour
Each panel system is designed with its
own specific brackets and spacers thateasily slide into the SLR-carriers(See page 7)

ROLL FORMED 84R, 70S AND
132S PANELS
The panels are roll formed from
0.6 mm thick pre-painted (Luxacote®
system) stove enameled aluminium strip(according to EN 1396). The strip
is made from a corrosion resistant alloy
EN AW-3005 or equivalent.

LUXACOTE® (ONLY FOR THE ROLL FORMED PANELS)
Luxacote ® is an exclusive Hunter Douglas innovationthat enhances the durability of exterior aluminium
building applications. Its strength and efficiency
comes from a powerful 3-layered system thatconsists of an anorcoat pretreatment, a primer,
and a pigmented topcoat.

There is a wide standard colour range
available for the roll formed panels.
See the HunterDouglas ® Exterior colour
program. Other (RAL or NCS) colours
are available on request. The panels
have a full white coating on the backside to enhance interior light levels.
SLR SELF SUPPORTING CARRIERSThe SLR-carriers are made of extruded
aluminium (according to EN 755-9).
Standard available in natural anodised(according to EN 12373) and mill-finish
to give the freedom for anodising or
powder coating.
ROLLFORMED STRINGERS
The 84R Panel System is also available
with fixed stringers. The stringers areroll formed from 0.95 mm thick prepainted (polyester paint) aluminium
alloy HD5050 or equal (according to
EN 1396).
SLR BRACKETS AND SPACERSThe SLR-brackets and spacers are madeof extruded aluminium (according to
EN 755-9). Standard available in natural
anodised finish.

Primer

ANORCOAT - THE KEY TO DURABILITY
After degreasing and cleaning the aluminium substrate, an anorcoat conversion layer
is applied to the product. This conversion layer accomplishes two things:- Permanently anchors the paint to the aluminium surface- Prevents the aluminium surface from corroding
Anorcoat is the key to the excellent performance of the Luxacote ® system;
it provides far superior protection than conventional conversion layers.
PRIMER - FOR ENHANCED LONGEVITY
Over the anorcoat we apply a primer that seals the substrate, resulting in enhanced
longevity of the panels.
TOPCOAT - THE FINAL TOUCH
The pigments in the polyurethane topcoat provide the panels their colour while
the integrated polyamide particles are the finishing touch of the Luxacote ® system,
giving products a scratch- and wear-resistant surface. Additionally, the polyamid
particles protect from UV rays, improving the durability of the colour and gloss.
Hunter Douglas has completely integrated the application of Luxacote® into the
production process. The result: extremely durable products with slightly textured
surfaces that manage potentially damaging outdoor conditions.
A SPECTRUM OF STRENGTH: THE COLOURS OF LUXACOTE®
The colours available to the Luxacote ® system vary from traditional subtle shades tovivid, bold and exciting colour palettes.
A full range of metallic colours is also available.

Light, Heat and Energy
COMFORT AND ENERGY SAVING
Using the right HunterDouglas ® Sun
Control system can greatly influence
the thermal and visual indoor climate.
Using the system intelligently both
improves the overall comfort of a room,and minimises energy costs (lighting,heating and cooling installations).
By effectively reducing the amountof solar radiation entering the building
with Sun Control systems, the amountof energy needed to cool the building
is immediately decreased. Therefore,
the capacity of the cooling equipment
can be reduced, resulting in lower initialinvestments and operational costs.

By either blocking, transmitting, or

HunterDouglas ® Sun Control Systems
make optimal use of this free sourceof light. By analysing the shading
performance, optimal daylight levels areachieved and glare kept to a minimum,
resulting in a healthy and productive
working environment.
