Choose the type of electric window opener
The electric window opener is a system that uses electrical equipment to drive the automatic opening and closing of various windows inside and outside the building. According to its mechanical drive mode, it can be divided into chain type window drive and screw type window drive. When choosing a window opener, different electric window openers should be selected according to the designed window type. First determine the window type, including special windows or devices such as top-hung, bottom-hung, mid-hung, skylights, sliding windows, casement windows, oblique windows, and row windows. The following are suggestions for choosing electric window openers for different types of windows
1. Blinds: A small push rod type electric window opener can be selected.
2. Up/down/hung windows: use chain type, push rod type is also acceptable, but the push rod type has a large push and pull force.
3. Large or heavy windows: if the window is wide (more than 1.5 meters wide) or when opening/closing the window, the push/pull force required is relatively large (more than 450N), then it will be considered to use a double chain electric window opener Yes, it is a window opener that sends out two chains at the same time to push and pull the same window to ensure the stability of the window opening and the degree of sealing when it is closed. Or use two motors to push, but it will increase the cost.
4. Skylight: The first choice is to use a push rod type electric window opener. This method is mainly suitable for bearing force in the vertical direction, without the possibility of bending, and has strong resistance to wind and rain, and the thrust is generally very large.
5. Push-pull window: Choose a push rod type electric window opener, which is more suitable for running in a straight line. When the window is closed, the sash has a good sealing degree.
The choice of power supply for electric window openers (slightly affects the price)
The power supply of the window opener: there are AC220V, DC24V, etc. Generally, AC220V is used for daily ventilation; DC24V power supply is used when there is a fire protection requirement.
In short, there are four elements for choosing an electric window opener: it should be selected according to the different conditions of the window. 1. Mechanical type; 2. Using voltage; 3. Opening stroke; 4. Push and pull force, etc.
