Versatile top quality vertical headrail system for commercial applications.

 Key Features:

 

Product Overview:

Exclusive to LouverDrape®, the Zirlon Wheeled System was designed for durability and superior performance even when used by people unfamiliar with vertical blinds--such as hospitals, schools and hotels.

The Zirlon system features carriers that are only 5/16" wide instead of the standard 7/16", which means that the blinds stack in considerably less space when drawn.  for design purposes, the smaller stacking advantage also means that  smaller wall pocket is needed to contain the drawn blinds or stack.

The Zirlon Wheeled Headrail System is compatible with LouverDrape's entire line of vinyl, vinyl with fabric insert, perforated vinyl and fabric vanes.  In addition to the standard 3 1/2" wide vanes, the Zirlon system can also accommodate 2 1/8" mini-verticals in three styles of pearl and matte colors.  This narrower vane is especially effective for smaller windows and interior relites.

Two options are available on the Zirlon Wheeled headrail System which simplify the operation of the blinds:

This is obsolete option...
AutoRotate
automatically rotates the vanes to the open position when the traverse cord is pulled.  This exclusive LouverDrape option protects the lead carriers and connecting links from damage which may occur when attempting to traverse the blinds with the vanes in the closed position.  Because the AutoRotate feature eliminates vane jambs, it is ideal for use in hospitals schools, apartments, or condominiums where verticals may be operated by people unfamiliar with their use.

AutoWand replaces the usual cord and chain controls with a single plastic wand which opens and closes the vanes as well as glides them along the track to traverse the blinds.  An especially desirable safety feature in schools and hospitals, AutoWand provides insurance against future service repairs.

® Zirlon Vertical Blind
Manufactured by Levolor Home Fashions, Contract Division
 B. One-Year Warranty
 C. Materials:

Channel: Head channel is made of anodized extruded aluminum alloy 1 5/16" wide x 1 7/16" high with capped ends, provided with Delrin®, or equal, sprocket wheels. End caps are equipped with covers to enclose sprockets, rotation rod ends and rollers for traverse cord. Available with top channel only.



Carrier Trucks:
Each carrier truck is made of Delrin, 5/16" wide and traverses on Zirlon wheels. No glides or sliders are allowed.



Spacer Links:
Flexible ¼" wide stainless steel spacer links space and stabilize trucks by passing smoothly between stabilizer guides on each truck.



Louvers: Louvers rotate 360° and pack, when traversed, into no more than 5/16" per louver. When rotated, 2
1/8" louvers overlap not less than 3/8"; 3 ½" overlap not less than 3/8".



Rotation: A #6 nickel-plated bead chain synchronizes and actuates 360° rotation by turning a keyed aluminum rod actuating Delrin worm and spur gear in each truck. Gears provide no less than 8-to-I mechanical advantage and keep louvers fixed until reset by control. No cord or 1-to-I ratio mechanisms are allowed. Spur and worm gear slips under extreme loading and is able to be realigned with no damage.
