SCHÜCO AWS 90 BR WK4

90mm frame depth with polyamide thermal break barrier. Especially in the contract business, very high-security requirements are placed on windows in certain areas. With the Schüco AWS 90 BR series, Schüco offers a bullet-resistant solution in class FB 4. With the Schüco AWS 90 BR window system, burglar and bullet-resistant requirements up to class RC4 or FB4 for fixed glazing, turn/tilt windows, tilt before turn and side-hung windows can be achieved using the system technology. As with the door system, the burglar and bullet-resistant properties up to RC4 can be easily combined with FB4. Here too, the Schüco maxim applies: increased protection does not have to be visible. Can be combined with burglar-resistant or bullet-resistant façadeSeries based on the AWS 90 window system. High thermal insulation due to 90mm construction depth and extended insulation zone due to foam composite strips.

 

AWS 90 BR is a thermally insulated aluminium window system with 90 mm basic depth. 6063-T6 high quality aluminum profile extrusion.

Schüco proprietary (Roto & GU) hardware, locks and hinges made in Germany are standard on this window. The biggest benefit that a multipoint locking system brings to a door or window is the added security and improved occupant sense of safety. Multipoint systems can also improve weatherstripping performance and offer a more secure and weather resistant seal. This is one of the reasons multipoint locking systems have been embraced in Europe, where more stringent energy code requirements are in place. Of course, multipoint locks are also recognised by insurance companies as offering enhanced and improved security to homes and businesses. High strength and security from multipoint locking on all 4 sides. Airtight and weather-sealed with continuous gasketing on all 4 sides. Multipoints also help prevent warping, even for very tall sashes.

Two EPDM weather seal strips. Semperit (Germany made) Aviation grade EPDM gaskets are an outstanding long-term seal. They have many advantages: excellent acoustic and thermal insulation, high elasticity and long-term elastic recovery, UV-resistant, ozone-resistant, weatherproof, no contact discoloration on coatings, and elastic and impermeable at temperature ranges from -35 °C to +100 °C.

Aluminum powder coat by Tiger. Tiger Drylac® Series 75 fluoropolymer hyper durable powder coating with superior weatherability for architectural applications. Drylac® Series 75 is a series of hyper-durable powder coatings designed to meet the requirements of AAMA2605-05, the most demanding architectural specification in the world.

Standard glazing for AWS 90 BR is 5mm Saint-Gobain Planitherm Ultra N II / ARG90 / CLR / ARG90 / Planitherm Ultra N II (5mm/5mm/5mm) 39mm, with industry-leading Ködispace 4SG TPS spacer. Planitherm is high transmission range, high-performance, low-emissivity products, offering the lowest center pane U- value in the market thus providing excellent thermal insulation for the most demanding of glass specifications. Renowned for its extremely neutral appearance Planitherm very effectively reflects long-wave heat radiation back into a room, thereby minimizing heat loss through a window while also maximizing solar heat gain and natural light transmission. Unlike traditional thermoplastic spacers, Ködispace 4SG TPS spacer's reactive butyl forms a chemical bond both with the silicone secondary sealing used in glass façades and with the glass surface itself. In this way, Ködispace 4SG bonds solidly with the pane and ensures long-term gas impermeability. Ködispace 4SG TPS has the best Psi and Ug values. It has the lowest failure rate in the industry against between-the-glass condensation and fogging and is why GlasFëns uses it as a standard spacer. It's an up-charge with other window suppliers but here it's standard.

Standard thermal insulation strut is polymer nylon 66 made in Germany. Polyamides offer high levels of heat resistance, stiffness and high mechanical stability for a durable solution. Without insulation, aluminum windows, doors, and facades transfer heat, leading to a huge loss of energy. This is where our high-precision insulating profiles come into play. Connecting aluminum panels of any kind, while keeping mechanical performance at the highest level, they prevent direct exchange of heat and cold – and create what is known as the “thermal break”. The result: minimized thermal conductivity, optimized efficiency, and a better energy footprint. Our aluminum window products with polyamide thermal breaks can save energy amounting to 85% and reducing CO2-emissions considerably.
