The new fittings system for the parallel opening louver window is a combination of a parallel fitting and additional swivel technology. The leaf or louver is moved outwards and downwards in an arc, allowing for the advantage of a circulating and safe ventilation function to be combined with an increased ventilation cross section in the projecting element. The new system is based on solid, stainless steel opening levers, which replace the stay technology that was used up to now. The opening levers are fitted with an adjustable, integrated brake device. A patented, swivel guide stay is used to ensure the safe opening of the louvers up to 250 mm. The opening lever mounting is concealed and the operating lever is installed flush, allowing the unassuming aesthetics of the overall element to be retained. In the case of motor-controlled louvers, the drive is provided by spindle drives concealed in the louver.
