About this file

This document is a detailed specification guide for VELUX Dynamic Dome Unit Skylights, providing comprehensive technical and performance requirements for commercial skylight installations. The specification covers multiple skylight models (CD and CE series) with various configurations including single, double, and triple dome designs, available in different sizes and glazing materials such as impact modified acrylic, polycarbonate (LuxGuard and LuxGuard Plus), and infrared blocking acrylic.

Key technical specifications include performance standards like AAMA/WDMA/CSA certification, design pressure ratings of +/- 30 psf, water penetration resistance, air infiltration limits, and energy performance metrics. The skylights feature extruded aluminum frames with thermal breaks, structural sealants, and optional fall protection accessories like interior safety screens and exterior safety screens. The document provides detailed installation instructions, warranty information (ranging from 1-15 years depending on component), and performance requirements for different environmental conditions, including windborne debris resistance and fire testing standards. The specification is intended to guide architects, contractors, and engineers in selecting and installing commercial skylights that meet rigorous performance and safety standards.

Reinforce your safety measures.

Types of Fall Protection

V4694-0320VELUX America LLC 104 Ben Casey Dr • Fort Mill, SC 29708 • 800-888-3589 • wascoskylights.com • veluxusa.com

Skylights pose an inherent risk, and the safety of others is of the utmost importance to VELUX. We have developed a number of fall protection options to fi t your building’s needs and enhance long-term safety.

Internal Safety Screens Internal safety screens provide a cost-e� ective means of protecting the skylight opening during construction and long after construction is complete.

External Safety Screens External safety screens provide OSHA fall protection for fl at roof, domed commercial skylights without damaging your skylight.

Built-In Fall Protection Prefabricated curbs come with an impact tested security screen in a grid pattern using 3/16" cold-rolled galvanized steel rod.

Interior Safety Screens (CRGA ICD)

Internal safety screens with 3/16" steel mesh spaced at 6" on center provides a cost e� ective means of protecting the skylight opening during construction, and long after construction is complete.

Exterior Safety Screen (CAE/STS)

External safety screens provide OSHA fall protection for Dynamic Dome commercial skylights.

Insulated Steel Curb (CCA3)

1½ " thick factory-insulated, double-wall, steel curb with 2" × 2" wooden nailer and 3/16” cold-rolled galvanized steel safety screens.

Interior Security Bars (CRGA BB)

½ " diameter steel bars welded 6" on center o� er the most security and protection available. In addition, this system provides the means of protecting the skylight opening during construction and long after construction is complete.

Exterior Safety Screen (CAEW/CAEB)

These exterior screens are 0.19" gage welded galvanized steel mesh spaced at 4" on center and fi t any new or existing unit or vault skylight. They are lightweight, easy to install, either permanently over units or as temporary protection* on construction sites.

*Must be secured to roof or curb for temporary use.

Field Insulated Steel Curb (CCA6)

1½ " thick ¾ " fi eld-insulated, single-wall, steel curb with 2" × 2" pressure-treated nailer and 3/16" cold-rolled galvanized steel safety screens.

2.2 DYNAMIC DOME UNIT SKYLIGHT (Model CD-[CE-])

A. System Description: Dynamic dome, curb mounted fixed skylight utilizing extruded aluminum frame counter-flashing with welded corners, an interior 100% thermally broken gasket for condensation drainage, structural sealant, and accessories, as required to meet installation and performance requirements indicated. Dynamic dome skylights shall be suitable for installation on roof curbs ranging from 0 degrees up to 60 degrees from horizontal.

1. Basis of Design: VELUX America LLC, Model CD- [CE-] Dynamic Dome Skylight.

Specifier: Dynamic dome designed specifically to harvest the maximum amount of daylight delivered into commercial and industrial spaces at solar elevation angles 10 to 40 degrees. The initial rise of the dome is designed at a minimum 60 degree slope to eliminate reflection, and refract early morning and late afternoon light into the building space. The dome height is 30% of the skylight width in order to harvest maximum levels of daylight at low solar elevation angles. Prismatic sheets are not offered for the outer dome as prisms pointed away from sun refract as much as 10% the light to the exterior resulting in less daylight passing through the prismatic material. Prismatic sheets used for the inner dome where the prisms point to the light source allows all the daylight to pass through and fully diffuses the light as intended. VELUX refers to polycarbonate dynamic domes as LuxGuard and LuxGuard Plus. LuxGuard Plus skylight certified for use in windborne debris areas and is Factory Mutual (FM) approved. LuxGuard skylight certified, listed and labeled for air, water, and structural loads. The LuxGuard and LuxGuard Plus polycarbonate sheets have an integrated enhanced spectral protection (UV blocking) that insures long-term color and performance stability.

Model CD1 is a single dynamic dome skylight with mill finish aluminum frame. Model CD2 is a double dynamic dome skylight with mill finish aluminum frame. Model CD3 is a triple dynamic dome skylight with mill finish aluminum frame. Model CD4 is a dynamic dome skylight utilizing a flat mutli-walled polycarbonate sheet for energy performance with mill finish aluminum frame. Model CE1 is a single dynamic dome skylight with neutral gray powder coat finished aluminum frame. Model CE2 is a double dynamic dome skylight with neutral gray powder coat finished aluminum frame. Model CE3 is a triple dynamic dome skylight with neutral gray powder coat finished aluminum frame. Model CE4 is a dynamic dome skylight utilizing a flat multi-walled polycarbonate sheet for energy performance skylight with neutral gray powder coat finished aluminum frame.

Use white color interior dome when specifying 100% light diffusion.

B. Dynamic Dome: Height 30% of skylight width, vacuum formed with precise repeating geometric patterns, and overall shape to maximize strength and daylight at low solar elevation angles 10 to 40 degrees. Outer dome shall be formed from smooth sheet and not prismatic in order to transmit all incident daylight through outer dome. Initial rise of the dome shall be at an angle of at least 60 degrees to horizontal in order to harvest daylight at low solar elevation angles 10 through 40 degrees. [Provide polycarbonate domes with integral UV blocking cap layer that prevents long-term yellowing, and insures material strength and performance stability.] [Light diffusion 100%.]

1. Single dome: (LuxGuard) formed from polycarbonate sheet, color [white] [clear], with

UV blocking cap layer.

Specifier: Select double dome glazing(s) required for project a) impact modified acrylic, b) acrylic, c) polycarbonate (LuxGuard), d) Polycarbonate (LuxGuard Plus) or e) Infrared blocking acrylic. LuxGuard has air, water and structural certification and LuxGuard Plus certified for air, water, structural, wind borne debris regions, high velocity hurricane zones and Factory Mutual. Prismatic inner dome is available in all dynamic domes sizes except 7272.

e. [Infrared Blocking Acrylic – Outer dome Lucite EcoShade, 0.118 inches in thick-ness, color iridescent. Inner dome clear [prismatic] polycarbonate, 0.118 inches in thickness.]

Specifier: For triple pane, use clear polycarbonate inner dome with infrared blocking outer dome.

3. Triple Dome: Outer dome [clear polycarbonate (LuxGuard)] [iridescent infrared blocking acrylic], 0.118 inches in thickness. Middle dome clear polycarbonate 0.118 inches in thickness. Inner dome 0.118 inch thick, [clear] [white] [prismatic] polycar-bonate.

D. 100% Thermally Broken Gasket for Condensation Drainage: Factory applied black thermoplastic gasket encapsulates the entire interior aluminum frame assembly providing a thermal break weather seal and drainage for condensation. The gasket design allows positive condensation to the exterior of the curb without exposed drainage openings in the aluminum frame that can introduce air infiltration into the skylight. The thermally broken gasket construction allows for a dry installation of skylight to the curb, eliminating weather seal strips or caulking at the top of the curb.
