What is the 515S2 RH motor?

What torque and speed does it deliver?
Somfy rates it at 15 Nm and 38 rpm, with a round head and a 60 dB noise level. It draws 1.8 A, uses 210 W while running and uses no power on standby.
What size tube does it need?
Somfy lists a minimum tube inside diameter of 1.85 in and an unwrapped motor length of 24.02 in. LT50 crown and drive sets, such as the LT50 2.5 in Round Crown and Drive Set (9012231), adapt it to your tube.
How is it wired?
It runs on 120V AC (108-126 V) through a 9.84 ft white 4-conductor SJTW cable with stripped ends. Wire it to an up and down switch such as the Somfy Maintained Rocker Switch Kit (1800342), or to a third-party relay.
How are the limits set?
The motor uses mechanical limits with a 46 turn capacity and a repeatability of +/- 5. You set the up and down stops at the motor head during installation. Somfy rates it IP 44 with Class I insulation.
Can I add a remote to this motor?
This is a wired motor with no radio receiver. To run it from RTS remotes and wall switches, wire in the Somfy Universal RTS Receiver for 110V AC motors (1810627), then pair Somfy RTS transmitters to the receiver.
