SunInside
Premium natural lighting solution
An innovative system that collects sunlight and amplifies it indoors
About
Product specifications
Light dispersal over a wide angle
Negligible heat transfers
High reflective sheet that reflects 98% of all visible light
Leak proof installations
With the Vari-pitch Elbow and Extended Tube, no roof is too high for the SunInside.
How does SunInside work?
Collect
A dome shaped structure with specialized optical system captures sunlight consistently throughout the day and redirects it downward into the duct.
Transmit
The 98% reflective sheet minimises light loss and colour change, even in cloudy conditions.
Diffuse
The 3MâĒ diffuser film uniformly spreads light, and its optical-grade plastic film maintains colour of the transmitted light.
Cost savings
- Save on lighting costs for upto 10 hours every day
- Recover expenses within 2.5 years
Safe, leak-proof installations
- Unlike polycarbonate skylight sheets, SunInsideâs short length base-sheet keeps workers safe on the roof.
- Special rubberized hardware prevents heavy rain ingress
- Variable angle elbow enables vertical installation
- Does not contain any consumable replacement parts
SunInside Tubular guided daylighting system has been made in
technical partnership with 3M India Ltd.The daylight guidance system
broadly consist of four different parts:
1. Collection system
Clear, UV resistant polycarbonate domeÂ
Parameter | Specifications |
Transmission | Minimum 80% |
Refractive Index | 1.58 |
Service Temperature | -10°C to 80°C |
Thickness | 2mm at flange |
2. Guidance System
Specifications |
Aluminium Sheet Thickness: 0.4mm – 0.5mm |
The film surface should have a luminous reflectivity of 98% and a bandwidth reflectivity of over 90% for 400 to 775nm wavelength of light incident between 0 to 80 degrees. |
The mirrored surface shall be protected by a plastic sheet until final installation of the system. |
3. Diffuser
Lens Diffuser made from UV stabilized polycarbonate film
Parameter | Specifications |
Diffuser type | Lens |
4. Roof mounting system
Leak proof installation of the system on customer roof
Specifications |
The system is installed in such a way that the light guidance component of the system is dustproof. This is necessary to prevent dust from entering the tube to ensure reflectivity is maintained. It is also to ensure that the air column inside the tube will act as an insulator for heat. Daylighting system to be installed on variable-angle elbow to counter roof slope and to ensure daylight tube to remain perpendicular to ground. The complete assembly to be installed on FRP Base of profile which will match roofing sheet. All installation to be done by cutting hole on roof and placing FRP base above this hole. |
