Common questions
What does the 2" (47mm) Round Drive Soft Clip do?
Part 9206089 is the drive wheel that fits on a Somfy 50mm-class motor and locks into a 2 in (47mm) round roller tube. It carries the motor's turning force into the tube, so the shade or shutter moves with the motor.
Which motors does it fit?
Somfy lists it for 500 Series motors, including Sonesse 506S2 and 510S2, Altus RTS, Oximo RTS and Maestria RTS models, plus Simu T5 and DMI5 motors. Examples here include the Sonesse 506S2 RTS 120V Motor (1001809) and the DMI5 50Nm 12rpm 120V (2000776).
What torque can this drive handle?
Somfy rates this drive wheel at a 50 Nm limit, with a 50 x 1.5 wheel profile. Match it to motors at or below that torque, and check the 500 Series Databook on this page for tube and motor pairings.
What is the difference between the soft clip and hard clip versions?
The soft clip version uses a lighter retaining clip, which Somfy's description calls a weak clip. For a firmer hold on the same 2 in round tube, Somfy offers the LT50 2" Hard Clip Drive (9206088).
What else do I need to finish the motor-to-tube connection?
Pair the drive with the crown that matches your tube, plus a motor bracket for the motor head, such as the LT50 Star Head Motor Bracket (9410651). The crown centers the motor inside the tube while this drive transfers the torque.
