Shading Tension System 440 External wire guided tension system

Applications

Two 5 mm diameter stainless steel cables.

STS 440 is primarily designed for commercial

buildings such as offices, shops, hotels and airports
as well as glazed structures such as conservatories,
winter gardens and restaurants.

A continuous nylon coated tension to deploy

and retract the blind.

The STS 440 is suitable for rectangular fabric

shades installed externally in front of or above
horizontal and vertical glazing, including drawing
vertically bottom to top.
A stainless steel wire acts as both a guide and
restraint for the hembar and eliminates the need for
relieving rollers or other forms of intermediate
fabric support.

A single 85 mm galvanized steel roller
incorporating both the drive motor and the spring
compensation cassette with integral tension
adjustment gear.
Extruded aluminium hem bar supporting the free
end of the fabric.

Two 6.5 m capacity cable drums, one on either end

of the fabric roller.
Design Options
Relieving roller for intermediate fabric support.
Finishes
Aluminium components - polyester powder finish,
30% gloss.
Steel - galvanised against corrosion.
