COMPONENTS & ENHANCEMENTS OVERVIEW

V i r a C o n n o M e n C l at u r e Viracon utilizes an alphanumeric code for each coated glass product. The code designates the coating as well as the glass substrate the coating is applied to. This nomenclature is meant to aid in specifying our fabricated glass products however it is not enough on its own to clearly identify the full glass unit. In a specification, it is important to include the Viracon nomenclature along with an outline including each component of the glass unit. The first portion of the code represents the coating family. Within each family, the coatings available have varying degrees of light transmittance. In our nomenclature, this is represented by the number following the dash.

Coating Type

Outboard Glass Substrate

VE

Transmittance of Coating

-

The number between the Viracon coating family and the nominal light transmittance of the coating is the color of glass the coating is applied to. In this example, VE85 is the coating and VE185 is the VE85 coating applied to clear glass.

Glass substrates are the individual plies of glass used to fabricate glass units and may also be referred to as float glass, raw glass or glass lites. Glass substrate options include clear, tinted and low iron. Clear is the most commonly specified glass substrate and has a slight green tint. In applications where designers wish to reduce the green, low iron glass is often specified

1=Cear

2=green

3=gray

4=bronze

6=be green

7=Azria™

8=Evergreen™

11=Arctic be™

in place of clear glass. Low iron is a type of float glass manufactured with less iron than standard clear glass. With this reduction in iron content, the green hue is reduced. Tinted glass is available in an assortment of colors and light transmission levels. In addition to providing a specific appearance, tinted glass has the added benefit of improving performance. Viracon’s glass substrate offering includes clear glass, three low iron glass substrates and a variety of tinted glass options. Each substrate is available in a variety of thicknesses and can have Viracon’s reflective or LowE coatings applied. Viracon also offers a few specialty glass substrates which have been developed for limited use in specific applications. Due to their unique characteristics, specialty glass substrates cannot be combined with Viracon’s reflective or LowE coatings. The specific glass substrate needed for a given project is t ypically dictated by a required solar performance or a desired appearance.

glass suBstrate tHiCKness All glass substrates are available 1/4” 6mm thick. Clear and each of the low iron substrates are also available in thicknesses of 3/16” 5mm, 5/16” 8mm and 3/8” 10mm. For tinted substrates, specialty substrates or other thicknesses of clear or low iron glass substrates, please check with Viracon for availability.

When specifying a specialty glass substrate, the full substrate name should be included in the specification. Contact Viracon for more information about these specialty glass substrates.

HEAT TREATMENT

Heat treatMent Heat-treate ass is a term se to escrie ass that has een processe throh a temperin rnace to ater its strenth characteristics. The process is one in orer to provie reater resistance to therma an mechanica stresses an achieve speciic reak patterns or saety azin appications as compare to anneae ass.

The process o heat-treatin ass is takin anneae ass, cttin it to its esire size, transerrin the ass to a rnace an heatin it to approximatey 1,150° f. Once at this temperatre, the ass exits the rnace an is then rapiy cooe, or qenche. Air is own onto the ass srace on oth sies simtaneosy.

HEAT TREATMENT

Heat treatMent deFinitions Heat-treate ass is a term se to escrie ass that has een processe throh a temperin rnace to ater its strenth characteristics. The process is one in orer to provie reater resistance to therma an mechanica stresses an achieve speciic reak patterns or saety azin appications as compare to anneae ass.

annealed(an) Raw ass that has not een heat treate is anneae ass. In a speciication, the esination or anneae ass is AN.

Heat strengtHened(Hs) Heat-strenthene ass is twice as stron as anneae ass o the same thickness, size an type. I roken, heatstrenthene ass wi reak into are shars simiar to anneae ass. The srace compression o heat-strenthene ass with thicknesses o 1/4” (6mm) an ess is 4,000 - 7,000 psi. Srace compression or 5/16” (8mm) an 3/8” (10mm) heat-strenthene ass is 5,000 - 8,000 psi. (becase o reaer repeataiity an instrment toerances, Viracon’s toerance or heat-strenthene ass srace compression is +/- 1,000 psi.) Whie improvin the strenth an resistance to therma shock an stress, heat-strenthene ass oes not meet saety azin reqirements as otine y the American Nationa Stanars Institte (ANSI) 97.1 or the eera saety stanar Consmer Procts Saety Commission (CPSC) 16 CfR 1201, an thereore sho not e se in these sitations. In a specication, the esination or heat strenthene ass is HS.

Fully teMPered(Ft) gass with y tempere sraces is typicay or times stroner than anneae ass an two times as stron as heatstrenthene ass o the same thickness, size an type. In the event that y tempere ass is roken, it wi reak into airy sma pieces, recin the chance or injry. In oin so, the sma ass shars make it more ikey that the ass wi ecome separate rom the openin. The minimm srace compression or y-tempere ass is 10,000 psi. In aition, it compies with the saety azin reqirements as otine y the American Nationa Stanars Institte (ANSI) 97.1 an the eera saety stanar Consmer Procts Saety Commission (CPSC) 16 CfR 1201. In a speciication, the esination or y tempere ass is commony areviate as fT.

Heat soaKing fy tempere ass may reak withot warnin e to the expansion o nicke sie incsions (NiS) present within oat ass. To avoi the risk o spontaneos reakae in y tempere ass, a common practice is to avoi the se o tempere ass whenever possie. Athoh the incience o tempere ass reakae e to these incsions is rare, reater picity o their occrrence has reste in an increase awareness o this phenomenon. In act, imitin the se o tempere ass in commercia iin appications has ecome the recommenation o a nmer o ass sppiers, incin Viracon. In some sitations however, tempere ass is reqire to meet saety azin reqirements or or ae strenth. In these cases, Viracon can perorm a heat soak test to provie the ae assrance that siniicant spontaneos reakae wi not occr. for more inormation, reer to or technica ocment Heat Soak Testin on or wesite viracon.com.

INSULATING GLASS

produCT overvieW Insulating glass is two or more plies of glass enclosing a hermetically sealed air space. Inherently, insulating glass increases a window’s thermal performance by reducing the heat gain or loss. At Viracon, insulating glass units are double sealed with a primary seal of polyisobutylene and a secondary seal of silicone. To provide a hermetically sealed and dehydrated space, the glass plies are separated by a desiccantfilled spacer with three bent corners and one keyedsoldered corner or four bent corners and one straight butyl injected zinc plated steel straight key joint. The desiccant absorbs the insulating glass unit’s internal moisture.

This allows the flexibility to design with hundreds of combinations of tinted glass, highperformance coatings, silkscreen patterns and pigmented interlayers, together or alone. In addition, Insulating Laminated Glass enhances acoustical performance, ultraviolet light prot ection, a nd the laminated component is designed to remain integral in the opening should glass damage occur. For this reason, insulating laminated glass is utilized for skylights or other overhead glazing applications.

T r i p l e i n s u l aT i n g g l a s s The most common triple insulating glass units are constructed with three plies of glass separated by two hermetically sealed and dehydrated spaces. This construction increases the insulating value of the glass unit, thus reducing the uvalue. A triple insulating glass unit is especially useful in applications where a low uvalue is necessary. While it is possible to specify a 1” triple insulating unit to coincide with a 1” dual pane insulating unit, it is not always practical. A 1” triple insulating unit is constructed with 1/8” glass plies rather than 1/4” plies used in a 1” dual pane insulating unit. The reduced glass thickness increases the potential for distortion and since the 1/8” plies are not as strong as 1/4” plies, the width and height of the glass units must also be decreased. In addition, the solar performance improvement is minimal. More commonly, triple insulating glass units are constructed with three plies of 1/4” glass and two 1/2” spaces. Viracon’s triple insulating glass units are available with the same LowE coatings offered with dual pane

spaCers An insulating glass spacer is placed within the unit to separate the two or more plies of glass. Viracon’s insulating glass spacers are available in two colors, three materials and a variety of thicknesses. When specifying an insulating glass unit, it is necessary to specify all three; color, material and thickness.

appearanCe Color choices include a black painted finish or a mill finish which has a silver appearance. Mill finish spacers can be seen in the majority of existing buildings as they were the standard in the glass industry for many years. The trend is moving however to black painted spacers as designers see the clean look this option provides. The black tends to blend with the gaskets and framing which minimizes the overall visual impact by leading occupants to look through the glass rather than at the framing or spacer. The color of the spacer does not affect the solar performance of the insulating glass.

ThiCKness The thickness of the spacer will determine the distance, or space, between the two glass plies in an insulating unit. Viracon’s typical 1” insulating units are constructed using a 1/2” 13.2 mm nominal thickness spacer, however a wide SPACER

variety of alternate thickness spacers is available. Even a minimal change in the thickness of the spacer can affect solar performance so it is important to include the thickness in a specification. 7/8" VE1-48 INSULATING

spaCers maTerial When selecting a spacer material it is necessary to be aware of the different uvalues used in the glass industry. Center of glass COG uvalues represent the center of the glass. Center of glass values provide an effective way to directly compare glass products without bias from spacer material, framing or unit size. Edgeofglass EOG values represent the perimeter of the glass unit affected by the spacer material. Values are weighted based on the area of the unit to provide an overall ufactor. The overall value is typically an input needed to run whole building energy calculations and determine code compliance.

AREA = 24FT 2

Aluminum, Stainless Steel and ExtremEdge™ are the three spacer material options

U-FACTOR = 0.4

available from Viracon. Although aluminum is the most specified, increasing energy requirements are escalating the demand for alternate spacer options to improve edge of glass EOG uvalue. Spacer materials that improve the EOG uvalue beyond the performance offered by aluminum are commonly grouped together under the category of warm edge spacers or warm edge technology.

siliCone Viracon’s insulating glass units are constructed with a dual seal configuration where polyisobutylene PIB is the primary seal and structural silicone is the secondary seal. The PIB is the moisture barrier seal of the insulating glass unit preventing moisture vapor transmission into the units air space. It must also adhere well to the glass and spacer during the life of the insulating glass unit. The secondary seal of silicone acts as the adhesive that holds the unit together in both conventional and structurally glazed systems. It must maintain its adhesion to the glass and air spacer throughout the life of the unit. Silicone is uniquely resistant to ultraviolet light and is the only sealant capable of being exposed long term to UV, temperature extremes and harsh atmospheric conditions. The high strength of silicone makes it ideal for structurally glazed applications.

insulaTing loW-e (air filled) The performance data applies to insulating glass units with two plies clear inboard of 1/4" 6mm glass and a 1/2" 13.2 mm airspace or argon space. The coating is applied to the second #2 surface. The solar and optical data presented in this guide is centerofglass data based on the National Fenestration Rating Council measurement standards. They were calculated using Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s LBNL WINDOW 5.2/6.3 software. In some cases performance data changed in comparison to previous versions of LBNL’s WINDOW program.

T r i p l e i n s u l aT i n g d o u B l e C o a T e d l o W - e ( a i r f i l l e d ) The performance data applies to triple insulating glass units with three plies clear lites unless otherwise specified of 1/4" 6mm glass and two 1/2" 13.2mm airspaces or argon spaces. The coating is applied to the second #2 surface. If double coated, a VE85 coating is applied to the fourth #4 surface. The solar and optical data presented in this guide is centerofglass data based on the National Fenestration Rating Council measurement standards. They were calculated using Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s LBNL WINDOW 5.2/6.3 software. In some cases performance data changed in comparison to previous versions of LBNL’s WINDOW program.

*This chart is a general reference to represent the primary use for each type of interlayer. It does not indicate compliance for a specific application . Laminated glass is a component of the overall glazing system therefore the performance in a specific application is dependent upon being installed into an adequately designed frame which is then installed appropriately for the specific application.

PrimAry APPLicAtions: Acoustic Laminated lass reduces noise transmission due to te sound dampin caracteristics of te interlayer.

Aesthetic Laminated lass interlayers offer a selection of color and opacity not acievable wit oter lass products suc as coatins, lass substrates, silkscreen or spandrel lass. Tis is especially true wit brit, vivid colors as well as opaque or translucent / frosted aestetic requirements.

bLAst mitigAting Viracon provides a variety of laminated lass options tat elp mitiate te effects of airblast attacks. Important note: Laminated lass is considered a component of te overall lazin system, terefore; te blast mitiatin performance is also dependent upon bein installed into an adequately desined frame wic is ten ancored appropriately to te wall structure. Viracon recommends te involvement of a blast consultant to verify te performance of te lass and framin system combination.

The performance data above applies to 1/4" (6mm) monolithic glass. The Reflective coating (if applicable) is applied to the second ( #2) surface.

The solar and optical data pr esented in this guide is center of glass data based on the National Fenestration Rating Council measurement standards. They were calculated using Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s (LBNL) WINDOW 5.2/6.3 software. In some cases performance data changed in comparison to previous versions of LBNL’s WINDOW program.
