2” x 4 1/2” SECTION
ALUMINUM STOREFRONTS PL-251 SERIES
The 251 series introduces an offset glazed system featuring frame/glass faces slightly on plan, ensuring a minimal frame protrusion for heightened aesthetics and performance values. Tailored for seamless integration with 1-inch insulated glass, it comes equipped with a comprehensive range of extrusions and accessories, making it suitable for diverse job conditions. This glazing system, available in 2 x 4-1/2 sections, offers flexibility with glass inserts that can be positioned inward or outward, allowing for customized applications. Additionally, the system is designed to accommodate most PRL Entrance Doors, providing a versatile solution for various architectural needs.
HANDLING, STORAGE AND PROTECTION OF ALUMINUM
The following precautions are recommended to protect the material against damage.
Following these precautions will help ensure early acceptance of your products and workmanship.
The mockup specimen for testing was a flat wall specimen, nominal one (1) story high, consisting of a 4 1/2″ deep, offset glazed, aluminum window wall system, measuring approx, 10´ wide by 10´ high (3 lites wide by 2 lites high). The system was glazed.
Compliance Statement: Results obtained are tested values and were secured by using the designated test method(s). The samples tested met the performance requeriments set forth in the referenced test procedures for a +1676/-2873 Pa (+35/-60psf) Design Pressure with missile impacts corresponding to Missile Level D and Wind Zone 3 for a basic protection rating.
