Industrial skylight Polycarbonate

Product

Taylon Skylights' Explosion Relief Skylights are engineered to provide controlled pressure relief in facilities where combustible dust or volatile vapors may create an explosion hazard. Designed for commercial and industrial environments, these specialized skylights help protect building structures by safely venting pressure during a deflagration event while also delivering natural daylight under normal operating conditions.

Designed in accordance with applicable standards such as NFPA 68, this system helps mitigate overpressure by allowing controlled release during a deflagration event, reducing the risk of structural damage. Built for demanding industrial environments, it combines reliable performance with long-term durability.

Explosion Relief Skylights feature a specialized relief mechanism engineered to open at a predetermined pressure, directing the force upward and away from the building envelope. This controlled-release design helps protect both the structure and its occupants. The unit also incorporates an integrated weather-tight seal to prevent water intrusion under normal conditions, ensuring dependable performance without compromising daily operations.

Constructed with high-performance, impact-resistant polycarbonate glazing, the skylight provides excellent light transmission with full diffusion for even, glare-free daylighting. Its robust frame and dome design are built to withstand harsh environmental conditions while maintaining consistent optical performance and long-term durability.

In addition to enhancing safety, the Explosion Relief Skylight contributes to improved indoor environments by introducing natural daylight into industrial spaces. Optional engineering support and venting calculations are available to ensure proper sizing and integration into the overall explosion protection system, helping meet project-specific safety and performance requirements.
