Outdoor frame PR80

PR80 tensionable outdoor frame – with flat strap system for PVC tarpaulins

Professional outdoor advertising – flexible, stable and weatherproof.
The PR80 outdoor frame was specially developed for large-scale banner installations in outdoor areas. Thanks to its sophisticated design with a flat strap system (12–15 x 3 mm), PVC tarpaulins can be easily sewn on and quickly changed from the front – without dismantling the frame.

The system is weather-independent as it does not require spring tensioners. It is suitable for both permanent use and temporary advertising campaigns. In addition, the PR80 is modularly expandable – even when assembled. This means that formats can be easily enlarged as required.

For additional attention, we also offer the PR80 as an illuminated version with modern LED technology – either with edge lighting for subtle light accents or as surface lighting for evenly illuminated motifs at night.

Your advantages at a glance:

• Frame construction tested, statically calculated and statically verified, calculation basis for own statics available
• Flat ribbon system 12 - 15x3 mm (easy to sew)
• Easy motif change from the front without dismantling the frame (similar to textile stretching frames)
• No spring tensioning elements, so the frame functions independently of weather conditions
• Modularly expandable (when assembled)
  

Technical characteristics:

• Outdoor frame with tensioning technology, profile in accordance with DIN EN12020-1 and EN12020-2
• Patent pending
• Outdoor frame 80 mm profile
• For wall mounting
• Anodised aluminium profile in accordance with DIN17611: E6/EV1 (new E6/C-0)
• Custom formats available on request from 1 piece
• Pre-assembled corners with clamping technology
• Cost-effective transport thanks to shipment of disassembled parts
• Optionally with print on PVC tarpaulin
• PVC tarpaulin (approx. 500 g/m²) flame retardant B1
• Frame also available with LED technology on request
• Max. installation height 20 m from the ground in wind load zone 2

Modular expandability – flexible format

With the PR80 outdoor frame, you remain adaptable at all times. The system can be expanded modularly even when assembled, without having to be completely dismantled.

Simply remove the motif print, open the pre-assembled corners and then insert additional profiles to enlarge the frame system. Once the corners have been reassembled, the new PVC tarpaulin can be clamped directly into the expanded format.

Fast, clean and efficient – ideal for changing requirements and growing advertising spaces.

Note on the statics and fastening of the PR80 outdoor frame

The static calculation is based on the 10 x 5 m format in the PR80 profile. The maximum height is 20 m to the top edge of the profile.
For different, larger formats, a new calculation must be made, as well as for frame heights above 5 m. There is no calculation limit in terms of width, provided that the Z-brackets are mounted according to the specified dimensions.
The Z-brackets must be mounted at a maximum distance of 0.8 m, both in width and height (see graphic).

Important:
The substrate and suitable anchoring are decisive for the statics of the Z-brackets.
According to calculations, the individual Z-brackets are subjected to a total load of approx. 1.8 kN.

Primex GmbH provides information on frame statics that relates exclusively to the function, design and basic structure of the frame itself.
This frame statics does not include the attachment of the frame to the wall or façade, nor any other structural constructions outside the frame and its structure. The basic structure and construction of the frame itself must not be changed, otherwise the statics will lose its validity.

Please note that a building permit and, depending on the wind load zone, a corresponding structural analysis are always required for outdoor use and must be provided by you.
The technical design and the number of anchor points for attaching the frame to the wall or façade must be determined based on the masonry and the structural analysis.
The specification and execution of this is not included in the scope of services and liability of Primex GmbH and is hereby expressly excluded.

The printed tarpaulin (optional)

The print on PVC tarpaulin for the outdoor frame can be made on request according to your individual color or motif template.

• Backing fabric: 100% polyester
• Weight: 500 g/m² | 15 oz/yd²
• Maximum tensile strength: 2700/2200 N/5 cm | 308/251 lbf/inch
• Tear strength: approx. 380/320 N | approx. 88/76 lbf

Shipping and delivery

The outdoor frames are shipped disassembled in individual parts, with the corners already pre-assembled with clamping technology. Delivery is carried out by a forwarding agent and the optional print is delivered separately. 

Assembly

The assembly aid shown in our functional description for attaching the Z-brackets for easy and secure assembly is available here in the shop.
