As you already know, MCA is constantly proposing the latest solutions available on the international market. The MCA Solar photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters market is becoming increasingly present in Romania, as they are an innovative, top of the range, aesthetic and easy to install shading solution, providing their users with a number of unique advantages compared to those offered by classic roller shutters.
Among the special benefits of MCA Solar photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters are the following:
- it’s installed 3 times faster than a conventional solution;
- it provides users the opportunity to enjoy electric roller shutters in areas with limited access to electricity;
- it does not require repairs after installation, since the assembly does not require any connection to the power supply or the control point;
- installation is done exclusively on the outside of the building without the owners having to be at home.
To achieve these performances, and also other equally surprising ones, MCA Solar photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters are equipped with the Oximo 40 WireFree RTS technology, a kit that includes an external roller shutter motor, a battery and a photovoltaic panel. This is the creation of the French Somfy manufacturer, who for more than 50 years has made millions of people around the world happier and ease their lives with its intelligent building management solutions.
The MCA Solar Oximo 40 WireFree RTS roller shutter motor technology gives these devices not only exceptional reliability but also unique performance such as:
- LONGEVITY (the life of the photovoltaic panel is +15 years and the battery life is between 8 - 10 years);
- AUTONOMY (the roller shutters have an autonomy of 45 days in total obscurity, ensuring 2 rises and 2 descents per day);
- UNIVERSALITY (the photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters can be installed anywhere in the world, regardless of the level of sunlight, since this technology is compatible with all types of roller shutters).
The Oximo 40 WireFree RTS technology, incorporated within the electric roller shutters comes with a warranty of 5 years. This is how it works:
- the photovoltaic panel captures solar light (whether it is sunny or not) and turns it into electricity;
- this energy is stored by a battery for up to 45 days in total obscurity, ensuring 2 rises and 2 descents per day;
- the battery provides the OximoWireFree engine with the energy required to work.
The solar technology provided by the MCA Solar photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters perfectly combines reliability and performance, while each of its three components gives them extra benefits, such as:
The OximoWireFree RTS engine
- is an optimized solution for safety and roller shutter protection;
- detects obstacles and stops if it encounters them on descent;
- provides anti-burglary resistance;
- provides frost protection;
- works reliably, stopping and starting easily to protect the roller shutter.
The photovoltaic panel
- has a special aesthetic appearance, adding to the beauty of the facade, since it is discreetly mounted in the roller shutter case;
- performs very well even when sunlight is low;
- a single model is installed, regardless of the window orientation and engine torque;
- fixed universally, on any type of wall;
- may be removed to ensure optimized brightness;
- pan supports allow a 15° tilt to optimize light input.
The battery
- has a Somfy emergency battery charger;
- ensures 45 days of autonomy.
The MCA Solar photovoltaic cell-powered roller shutters can be integrated into TaHoma's complex automation system, Telis 1 RTS and Telis 4 RTS respectively. Also, thanks to the Somfy Solar App, anyone who wants to install such roller shutters can find out very quickly whether this is possible in their location.
