Finding the best window actuator for your project
When it comes to finding the best window actuator for your project, WindowMaster is the go-to source. WindowMaster offers actuators that are designed to suit a wide range of projects, ensuring optimal building performance, cost-effectiveness, and user satisfaction. Window actuators and their controls play a crucial role in modern building services, greatly impacting the internal environment and energy efficiency of a building. Neglecting their importance can lead to significant challenges for designers, contractors, and clients, resulting in costly repairs or long-term consequences. Many standard window actuators need more intelligence and rely on basic mechanisms, resulting in poor control over opening distance and discomfort for occupants. In contrast, WindowMaster actuators are equipped with intelligent features such as speed control and position feedback, allowing for precise and controlled ventilation. Additionally, these actuators prioritise safety with pressure safety functionality, preventing accidents and injuries. With WindowMaster, you can trust that you will find the perfect window actuator that meets your project's requirements.
Why are window actuators beneficial?
Window actuators are highly beneficial for a variety of reasons. One of the main advantages is that they provide automated ventilation in a building. This automated ventilation helps to improve the indoor climate and comfort by regulating the temperature and air quality. It also enhances energy performance and reduces running costs, leading to increased productivity. Additionally, window actuators can be used to provide ventilation in out-of-reach openings using keypad control, eliminating the need for manual winding gear, which can be intrusive, expensive, and high maintenance. Lastly, window actuators can be utilised for smoke ventilation, improving building safety in the event of a fire. Overall, installing window actuators offers numerous benefits and is a valuable addition to any building.
Consequences of poorly operated window actuators
Poorly operated window actuators can have significant consequences on a building's overall performance, costs, and client comfort. Without intelligent control, these actuators may not function optimally, leading to inefficient ventilation and temperature regulation. This can result in increased energy consumption and higher utility bills.
Moreover, poor control of window actuators can compromise the comfort of building occupants, as it may lead to inadequate airflow, excessive heat or cold, and noise infiltration. The lack of intelligent operation can also impact the durability and lifespan of the actuators, leading to frequent repairs or replacements, further adding to the overall costs. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure proper operation and intelligent control of window actuators to avoid these negative consequences.
Window actuators with pressure safety
When installing window openers, it is crucial to ensure the safety of individuals by incorporating a pressure safety feature. This feature acts as a monitor to detect if an object becomes trapped in the leading edge of the window. The MotorLink® actuator, equipped with microprocessors, is capable of real-time monitoring of the electrical current being drawn and the precise position of the window, with an accuracy of less than a millimetre. In the event of an obstruction, the actuator will automatically reverse its movement to release the trapped object. It is important to note that the sensitivity of the pressure safety must be adjustable to account for factors such as the closing force of the actuator, the size and weight of the window, the configuration of the window, its hinges, and the rigidity of the profile itself. Regular monitoring and adjustments are necessary to maintain the system's performance and sensitivity throughout the lifespan of the building.
Intelligent control of windows: MotorLink®
MotorLink® is a communication technology that enables 2-way control and feedback between window actuators and the Building Management System via the MotorController. All WindowMaster control systems are MotorLink® capable with many of our actuators. Click below to learn more and see related products.
