Sonesse 30 Zigbee: Somfy's compact 24V DC motor for small-diameter roller shades
The Somfy Sonesse 30 Zigbee (1241970) fits tubes with an internal diameter as small as 1.13 in, so it hides inside headrails, cassettes and tight pocket installations. It delivers 2 Nm at 25 rpm on 24V DC and runs Zigbee 3.0, so the TaHoma app shows each shade's real position.
Benefits
- Fits tubes from 1.13 in internal diameter, concealable in headrails and cassettes
- Speed regulation keeps multiple adjacent shades aligned
- Control: Zigbee 3.0 two-way control with position feedback via the TaHoma app, plus mesh network repeating
- Interchangeable, color-matched motor head covers to blend with decor

Common questions
What is the Sonesse 30 Zigbee 24V DC motor built for?
Part 1241970 drives small-diameter interior roller shades with two-way Zigbee 3.0 control. It fits tubes with an inside diameter from 1.13 in, so it can sit hidden inside headrails, cassettes and tight pocket installs.
What torque and speed does it deliver?
Somfy rates the 1241970 at 2 Nm and 25 rpm, with electronic limits and a 100-turn limit capacity. Somfy lists a noise level of 47 dB, and speed regulation helps side-by-side shades move in line.
How do I power this motor?
It runs on 24V DC, draws 0.8 A and uses 18 W in operation. The motor has a short 2-wire lead with a Weidmüller plug end. For groups of motors, Somfy offers 24V Power Distribution Enclosures for 5, 10 or 20 motors (1870196, 1870192, 1870198).
Which controls work with it?
The motor speaks Zigbee 3.0 on 2.450 GHz, so it pairs with Somfy Zigbee controls such as the Ysia 5 Channel Zigbee Remote (1871154). It does not respond to RTS remotes. Somfy lists an open-field range of 492.15 ft.
Can I control it from my phone or a voice assistant?
Yes. Pair it with a Somfy TaHoma Switch (1871037) for app control, scenes and voice assistants. Zigbee is two-way, so the app can confirm commands and show the shade's position.
How does it differ from the Sonesse 30 RTS 24V DC?
Both share 2 Nm, 25 rpm and 24V DC power. The Sonesse 30 RTS 24V DC (1241142) uses one-way RTS radio and works with Situo and DecoFlex RTS controls. This Zigbee model adds two-way feedback and mesh networking.
