Somfy Orea 535A2 RTS Motor -- wireless cassette awning motor

The Somfy Orea 535A2 RTS is a wireless, radio-controlled motor built for Orea cassette-integrated awning and shading systems, delivering 35Nm (310" lb) at 20 rpm. Orea integrates the motor into a cassette awning housing -- crown/drive and bracket hardware is cassette-specific and not part of ShadeMotorsDirect's standard LT50 accessory set, so none is listed here; confirm cassette hardware compatibility directly with the cassette system being installed. Legacy reference 1037522.

Common questions

What is the Orea RTS 535A2 designed for?

Part 1038173 is a 120V RTS tubular motor that Somfy builds for cassette awnings, and Somfy also lists exterior solar screens among its applications. It carries the legacy reference 1037522 for buyers matching an older part.

What torque and speed does it deliver?

Somfy rates the Orea RTS 535A2 at 35 Nm of torque and 20 rpm. It draws 240 W while running and 0 W in standby, fits tubes with an inside diameter of 1.85 in or larger, and lists a noise level of 56 dB.

Which crown, drive and brackets does it need?

Orea mounting hardware is specific to the cassette system, so match the crown, drive and brackets to the cassette you are installing. Somfy lists a star head and a 1.85 in minimum tube inside diameter to help you confirm fit.

How is the motor powered and wired?

It runs on 120V/60Hz through a 3-wire cable, and the RTS receiver inside the motor removes the need for control wiring. Somfy describes the install as plug-and-play and rates the motor IP 44.

Which remotes and sensors work with it?

Any Somfy RTS remote, wall switch, timer or sensor pairs with it, such as the Situo 1 Channel RTS Pure Remote (1870571) or the Eolis 3D WireFree RTS Wind Sensor (1816081). Somfy lists 12 channels and 656.2 ft of open-field range.

Can I run the awning from my phone?

Yes. A Somfy TaHoma Switch (1871037), or the version with an Ethernet adaptor (1871038), adds app and voice control. RTS sends one-way commands, so the app does not show the awning's position.
