Custom Patterned Smart Tinting Glass Facade - Leading China Suppliers and Factory for Innovative Glazing Solutions
Product Parameters
Introduction
Transparency Range
Clear state with up to 80% visible light transmittance (VLT); opaque state reducing VLT to 1 - 5%.
Response Time
PDLC glass switches in <10 milliseconds; electrochromic glass may take 1 - 5 minutes for full transition.
Power Consumption
PDLC glass typically consumes 3 - 5 W/m² when activated; electrochromic glass consumes minimal standby power (0.1 - 0.5 W/m²).
Thickness
Available in single - layer (3 - 6mm) or double - layer (10 - 20mm) configurations for enhanced insulation and safety.
Size Range
Standard sizes up to 240cm x 360cm, with custom sizing available for large - scale projects.
Operating Voltage
Usually 12V - 24V DC for PDLC glass; electrochromic glass may operate at 3 - 5V DC.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary difference between PDLC and Electrochromic glass?
PDLC glass provides instant switching (milliseconds) between clear and opaque, making it ideal for privacy. Electrochromic glass changes tint levels gradually and is better suited for solar heat control and energy efficiency.
How fast does smart tinting glass respond to controls?
Response times vary by technology: PDLC glass switches in less than 10 milliseconds, while Electrochromic glass can take anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes for a full transition.
Is smart glass energy efficient?
Yes. While PDLC glass uses 3-5 W/m² when active, Electrochromic glass is extremely efficient, consuming only 0.1 - 0.5 W/m² in standby, significantly reducing HVAC cooling costs.
What are the maximum dimensions available for smart glass panels?
Standard sizes are available up to 240cm x 360cm. However, we offer custom sizing to meet the specific requirements of large-scale architectural projects.
What thickness options are available?
We offer single-layer configurations from 3-6mm and double-layer (laminated or insulated) configurations from 10-20mm for enhanced safety and sound insulation.
What voltage is required to operate smart glass?
PDLC glass typically operates on 12V - 24V DC, whereas Electrochromic systems usually require a lower voltage of 3V - 5V DC.
