Blast resistance combined with all the advantages of Schüco standard window systems
Blast resistance combined with all the advantages of Schüco standard window systems
The explosion-resistant Schüco AWS 90 XR (Explosion Resistant) window system, tested in outdoor tests based on ISO 16933, combines high security with modern architecture.
This means that the aluminium window construction, which can withstand a pressure wave of 169 kPa generated by an explosion at a distance of 19 metres (danger level E “low risk”), is suitable for a wide range of applications: In addition to military requirements, this also includes security-sensitive areas such as petrochemicals, banks and embassies.
The blast-resistant version meets all the requirements for normal windows, such as thermal insulation, sound insulation and tightness, and is visually indistinguishable from Schüco standard windows.
Another system advantage is the wide range of installation situations: fixed wall elements can be implemented as well as combinations with the blast-resistant Schüco facade systems.
For safety reasons, the window system can only be built with special approval for processors.
