SkyVault Series Collector, Solatube International
The company is adding an amplifier to its SkyVault Series core solar tube unit and prismatic diffuser to capture more low-angle daylight and extend delivery during the low-light hours of the day. Suited for high-ceiling commercial applications with ceiling heights of at least 26′, the collector intercepts light passing through the dome and directs it into the tubing. An internal reflector helps to minimize solar heat gain. solatube.com
