Common questions
What does the Sun Sensor for DSM do?
Part 9050100 is Somfy's automatic sun sensor for the Decorator Somfy Matic (DSM) system. It reads sun conditions so the system can move motorized shades and blinds on its own, which keeps rooms comfortable and saves energy.
Which controller does this sensor work with?
It works with Somfy Decorator Somfy Matic (DSM) control systems on interior blinds and shades. Order it as the genuine Somfy replacement when the sun sensor on an existing DSM installation needs to be swapped.
Is this a wired or wireless sensor?
It is a wired sensor. Somfy lists it with embedded wired technology, so it connects to the DSM system by cable rather than by radio.
How much energy can automatic sun control save?
Somfy states this sensor can help reduce energy consumption up to 40%. The DSM system uses its readings to operate your shades based on sun conditions, with no one needing to press a button.
What protection rating and warranty does it carry?
Somfy rates the sensor at IP 44 and covers it with a 5-year warranty. As a genuine Somfy part, it is made to match the sensor your DSM system was designed around.
