Electrically operated ventilation skylights are based on naturally open ventilation skylights with the addition of an electric system and opening/closing flaps. When ventilation, air exchange, smoke exhaust, or dust removal are needed, the electrically operated flaps are opened. When ventilation and smoke exhaust are not required, the electric flaps remain closed to prevent air convection between indoors and outdoors.
Ventilation skylights are commonly used ventilation and lighting equipment in steel structure workshops and reinforced concrete buildings. They feature efficient natural ventilation, no electricity consumption, energy savings, and environmental protection. The primary reasons ventilation skylights can achieve air exchange and meet building ventilation needs are wind pressure difference and thermal pressure difference.
Ventilation skylights are also known as roof ventilators, natural ventilators, or ventilation louvers. They are large-scale ventilation equipment commonly used in industrial buildings, integrating ventilation, lighting, and smoke exhaust, and play a significant role in improving indoor air quality.
Ventilation and lighting skylights are high in strength and lightweight. The density of hot-dip galvanized steel pipes is approximately 2.70, compared to the density of steel at 7.85. This reduces the load capacity requirements on the workshop's indoor floor, makes foundation optimization relatively easier, significantly saves on structural steel usage, conserves material resources, avoids unnecessary waste, and reduces cost consumption.
