Common questions
What torque and speed does the Sonesse 506S2 RTS deliver?
Somfy rates part 1001809 at 6 Nm of torque and 32 rpm.
What is the smallest roller tube this motor fits?
Somfy lists a minimum tube inside diameter of 1.85 in. The compatible parts on this page include 2 in and 2.5 in tubes with matching LT50 crowns and drives.
Does this motor need power at the window?
Yes. It is a 120V wired motor with a built-in RTS radio receiver. The radio replaces the control wiring, not the power feed.
Which remotes and switches work with it?
Any Somfy RTS transmitter, including Situo and Telis remotes, DecoFlex RTS wall switches and Chronis RTS timers. Each motor stores up to 12 transmitters. Somfy rates RTS range at 656.2 ft in open field, and walls shorten that indoors.
Can I control it from my phone or a voice assistant?
Yes, through a Somfy TaHoma hub. RTS is one-way radio, so the app sends commands but cannot report the shade's position.
How loud is it, and is there a quieter option?
Somfy rates this motor at 45.1 dB. If noise matters most, the Sonesse ULTRA 506A2 RTS (1002562) runs at 38 dB with the same 6 Nm of torque at 24 rpm.
