Product catalog summary
Raybender® 3000 Technology
Raybender® 3000 Technology features a patented daylight-capturing dome lens that redirects low-angle sunlight and rejects overpowering midday sunlight, ensuring consistent daylighting throughout the day. The in-dome reflector increases light input, providing unsurpassed year-round performance.
LightTracker™ Reflector
This component enhances the system's ability to redirect low-angle winter sunlight, increasing light input and output.
Spectralight® Infinity
Utilizes the most reflective tubing in Tubular Daylighting Devices (TDDs) with 99.7% specular reflectivity, allowing for long tube runs and pure color rendition.
Dual Lens Array Technology
Combines two lenses for complete daylighting customization. The Diffuser Lens controls light diffusion, while the Effect Lens adjusts light color.
Performance and Zones
The system guarantees high performance all day and year-round. It consists of three zones: Capture Zone (sunlight captured by the dome), Transfer Zone (sunlight directed through the attic), and Delivery Zone (sunlight distributed in the room).
Codes and Approvals
Approved by major building product agencies, including A440-05, ICC, and Energy Star®. It meets criteria for high-velocity hurricane zones and wind zones over 120 MPH.
