Somfy Orea WT – electronic awning motor (used & refurbished | tested)
“I am the motor that moves your awning with perfect precision – quiet, powerful, and exactly when you want it.”
I offer used and refurbished Somfy Orea WT tubular motors – the professional solution for awning drives with electronic limit detection.
The Orea WT series is known for its exceptionally smooth operation, precise limit shutoff, and its ability to close cassette awnings perfectly.
From small balcony awnings to large commercial installations – these motors offer torque ratings from a compact 10 Nm to a powerful 120 Nm, allowing even heavy systems to operate reliably and precisely.
The wired control system ensures maximum reliability and allows the use of classic switches, automatic controllers, or central control units.
Somfy developed the Orea WT series specifically for demanding awning applications where the combination of power, precision, and durability is essential.

Inspection and refurbishment in a certified workshop

Function and running behavior
Mechanical limit shutoff and rotation direction
Electrical safety according to the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR)
Condition of the connection cable and mechanical coupling

Wear parts are replaced when necessary, ensuring the motor is technically tested and ready for immediate use.

Application area: cassette & articulated-arm awnings
The Orea WT series is the top professional among awning drives.
Its electronic limit detection ensures a perfect closing mechanism that retracts the cassette awning fabric gently yet firmly – without mechanical adjustment.
Thanks to the wide torque range, the motor is suitable for both compact terrace awnings and large commercial systems.
Its smooth running behavior protects the articulated arms and extends the lifespan of the entire installation.

Sustainability meets safety
Through professional refurbishment, I extend the lifespan of these high-quality drives – a sustainable alternative to buying new.
All offered motors are tested according to the GPSR and meet current requirements for safety and functionality.
Each motor comes from trusted sources or from my own inventory and is only sold after a successful function test.
