Primasol Awning
Technical description
A. General
The Primasol, a sleek design for sun
protection during the day, and ambient
temperature control in the evening.
The Primasol is a retractable awning with a
protective case housing around the fabric
tube. When retracted, the front bar joins
securely with the cassette housing for year
round protection.
The entire design of the awning is laid out for
trouble-free, silent, and safe operation.
The awning frame is available in white
(RAL9016) powder coated, or you may
request a special color in accordance with
RAL.
B. Construction of the Awning
1. Support Bar
The main part of the awning frame is the
support bar, which is made from 40x40x2
mm steel sendzimir galvanized and powder
coated. The strong back bar extends the
mounting choices and prevents twisting.
2. Fabric Housing
The housing is assembled from two extruded
aluminum pieces, with a thickness of 2mm.
The bottom and top part of the housing are
tightly snapped together and mounted with
an extruded bracket to the back bar. The
housing is held in place with aluminum side
plates. When the awning is fully retracted,
the front bar closes the housing for the best
protection, and the awning will appear as one
oval shape.
3. Front Bar
The front bar is made out of an extruded
aluminum profile with a wall thickness of 2
mm. It has an oval shape with internal
partitions providing a strong rigid bar to keep
the fabric straight and taut.
4. Side Caps
The front bar end caps and the housing side
caps are made from durable plastic, and are
powder coated to match the colour and
sheen of the aluminum components.
5. Fabric Roller
The Fabric roller is made of a galvanized
steel tube with dimensions of 78x1.25 mm to
prevent deflection from fabric tension
.
6. Folding Arms
The profiles of the arms are made of
extruded aluminum profiles with a height of
70 / 65 mm and a sectional thickness of 1.5
mm. The height and oval shape are designed
for premium strength.
The heavy duty arms are assembled with
three strong torsion springs inside the upper
arm profile providing extreme tension for
taut fabric and increasing wind resistance
while ensuring long term durability. The arms
are made with maintenance free stainless
steel cables that are covered with PVC tubing
for easy cleaning and improved aesthetics.
The upper arm, elbow joint, and lower arm
attachment are made by a forged cast
aluminum process to combine highest
strength yield and design requirements.
All parts are powder coated to offer premium
weather resistance and cleaning ability.
