FAST facade system

Curtain facade structure for solar modules

  • Energy production on the facade
  • Custom made manufacturing
  • Optimal facade protection

Areas of application

FAST is suitable for all areas where curtain wall systems are used. This includes single-family houses, apartment buildings, high-rises, etc.

How it works

The solar modules with backrails are placed into the horizontal profiles and folded up like a tilting window. They are fixed by a slide safety catch. Later dismantling is possible without restrictions.

1 Apply transverse profiles to the vertical structure of the building.

2 Place module, inclination is possible for cabling.

3 Secure module temporarily and adjust, +/- 3mm also possible after mounting.

4 Secure module and place next module.

Option: Concealed mounting

Option: Lateral adjusting screws for concealed mounting

Flexibility

Glass-glass modules used on the facade are usually custom made. Their shape, colour, size and surface can be individually designed. Price advantages can be achieved when using the standard measurements.

Components

  • Glass-glass solar modules with SSG adhered backrails and mechanical support
  • Horizontal rail, slide safety catch
  • Vertical structure as well as consoles/spacer screws are often provided on site. If required, they are part of the package.

Type of installation

The mounting is concealed by means of backrails on the rear side.

Installation time

10 m2 / man-hour (experienced installation personnel)

System interface

The adhesion of the backrails on the rear side of the module takes place in-house.
