Acuity Brands Seamlight Curbless Daylighting System
Acuity Brands has expanded its Sunoptics high-performance prismatic daylighting portfolio with the introduction of the Seamlight Curbless Daylighting System.
The Seamlight System is designed for direct installation onto existing industrial standing seam roofing systems, creating new opportunities for the implementation of daylighting solutions. The Sunoptics high-performance prismatic skylights optimize indoor daylighting performance via a patented dome construction designed to capture more light at low sun angles, which maximizes the amount of light transmittance, while maintaining 100% diffusion and eliminating undesirable hot spots, glare and UV damage.
Utilizing the same patented technology that is integral to the Sunoptics Signature Series Skylight, the Seamlight System also delivers optimal lighting performance, while its installation process does not interfere with the structural integrity of industrial low-slope standing seam metal roofing systems. The product's integrated rail attaches to the roof's structural standing seam allowing the Seamlight System to move with roof expansion and contraction. The single sided front-end water diverter in the Seamlight System minimizes roof penetrations and leak potential as compared to conventional skylight roof curb designs. The Seamlight System can provide additional energy savings through integration with one of Acuity Brands' indoor intelligent control systems, including Sensor Switch, Synergy Lighting Controls or Lighting and Control Design.
"There is no greater efficiency for a building than turning electric lights off through daylighting," said Grant Grable, Acuity Brands Lighting vice president and value stream leader, Sunoptics. "In the global market of existing metal buildings, there has been a long-standing need for a daylighting product that reduces the excessive labor needed to install conventional metal roof curbs while integrating with the structural integrity of low-slope industrial roofing systems, thereby minimizing leak potential. The Seamlight System provides the solution that addresses these customer requirements," Grable added.
