Marata Vision appointed distributor for automated curtain systems (1/7/2005)

CEDIA UK Expo 2005

Marata Vision has been appointed a key distributor for Goelst's electrically operated curtain track systems. The agreement means that Marata can now offer total lighting control systems through control of both daylight and artificial lighting.

The trade only distributors are offering Goelst's new generation low voltage curtain track systems. The G-rail 6200 and 6300 models incorporate 24V motors and are suitable for curtain types ranging from lightweight domestic through to heavyweight contract. Powerful but quiet, the systems can be programmed with intermediate stop settings.

Both models have low voltage and infrared remote control as standard but also include a CAN-bus interface. This gives them the option to be linked up directly to lighting control systems such as iLight, which can also control other building automation systems such as audiovisual (home cinema), HVAC and security systems.

As well as convenience, curtain control systems have the advantage of improving security by closing/opening when occupants are away, as well as reducing overheating from sunlight and limiting harmful ultraviolet exposure to furniture, carpets etc.

The curtain systems are demonstrated on Marata's stand at CEDIA Expo 2005 UK. Also on display are a wide range of integration and audiovisual products, including the iLight Zen dimmer range, the latest waterproof bathroom LCD TVs from Aquavision, home cinema projectors from Sharp and JVC, projection screens from Vutec and projector lifts from Audipack.
