Common questions
What does the 9012258 motor plate do?
Somfy calls this part the R8 Adaptor Plate. It mounts Somfy ST30 and 400 Series motor heads into RollEase R8 (R-Series) brackets, so a RollEase bracket system can run on a Somfy motor.
Which motors does it fit?
Somfy lists it for Sonesse 30 motors in RTS, RS485, DCT, Zigbee and PoE versions, and Sonesse 40 motors in WT, RTS, RS485, Zigbee and WireFree versions. Examples here include the Sonesse 30 RTS 24V DC (1241142) and Sonesse 40 404S2 Zigbee 3.0 (1245920).
How much torque can it handle?
Somfy rates the plate for motors up to 4 Nm of torque. The stainless steel body gives a rigid mount at the motor end of the shade.
Does it change the light gap?
It can. The plate adds material at the motor end, so on Sonesse 30 installs it may widen the light gap. Check bracket spacing and fabric width before you cut the shade.
What else do I need?
You need RollEase R8 brackets plus a crown and drive that match your motor and tube. Options here include the RollEase 2" Bracket Kit R8 Series (9012313) and the Sonesse 30 Crown & Drive Kit for RollEase 2" Tubes (9021017).
