Solarban® 70 glass (formerly Solarban® 70XL glass) is a solar control, low-e glass that brilliantly combines the clear appearance of transparent, color-neutral glass with an exceptional combination
of solar control and visible light transmittance (VLT). The world’s first triple-silver, magnetron sputter vacuum deposition (MSVD) coating, Solarban® 70 glass expands the design possibilities for buildings in two important ways. First, Solarban® 70 glass enables architects to incorporate vast areas of vision glass into their designs without a corresponding increase in cooling equipment capacity. Second, architects can specify a clear aesthetic while achieving solar control performance that was once attainable only through the use of tinted glass and a solar control, low-e coating in an insulated glass unit (IGU).
Performance Options
When coupled with conventional clear glass in a one-inch IGU, Solarban® 70 glass achieves a Visible Light Transmittance (VLT of 64 percent and a Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) of 0.27 to produce a Light to Solar Gain (LSG) ratio of 2.37, making it one of the industry’s highest-performing glasses.
The clear aesthetic of Solarban® 70 glass also makes the product exceptionally versatile, offering architects an extensive array of performance and appearance options. For instance, for projects that require advanced solar control performance, Solarban® 70 glass can be coated on the second (#2) surface of nearly all of Vitro Architectural Glass’ (formerly PPG glass) wide range of tinted glasses to produce SHGCs as low as 0.19 and LSG ratios ranging from 1.68 to 2.15. For more color and reflectivity choices, Solarban® 70 glass may be specified on the third (#3) surface of an IGU behind a tinted lite or
in combination with Solarcool
® reflective or Vistacool
® subtly reflective color-enhanced glasses.
