Somfy Orea 60 WT 55/17 tubular motor, used & reconditioned | Electronic awning motor
Somfy Orea WT – electronic awning motor (used & refurbished | tested)
“I am the motor that moves your awning with perfect precision – quietly, powerfully and exactly when you want it.”
I offer used Somfy Orea WT tubular motors: a professional solution for awning drives with electronic limit detection.
The Orea WT series is known for its exceptional smoothness, precise limit switching and its ability to optimally close cassette awnings.
From small balconies to large commercial awnings - these motors offer torques from a compact 10 Nm to a powerful 120 Nm, so that even heavy systems can be moved reliably and precisely.
The wired control ensures maximum reliability and allows use with classic switches, automatic controls or central control systems.
Somfy has developed the Orea WT series specifically for sophisticated awning solutions where the combination of power, precision and durability is crucial.
Inspection and refurbishment in the specialist workshop
- Function and running performance
- Mechanical limit switch and direction of rotation
- Electrical safety according to GPSR
- Condition of the connecting cable and the mechanical coupling
Wearing parts are replaced if necessary so that the motor is technically tested and ready for use again immediately.
Area of application: cassette and folding arm awnings
The Orea WT series is a professional choice for awning drives.
Its electronic limit detection ensures accurate closing, retracting the cassette awning fabric gently but firmly without mechanical adjustment.
Thanks to the high torque range, the motor is suitable for both compact patio awnings and large commercial facilities.
Its smooth running protects the articulated arms and extends the lifespan of the entire system.
Sustainability meets safety
Professional reconditioning extends the life of these high-quality motors, offering a sustainable alternative to buying new.
All motors offered are tested according to GPSR and meet the current requirements for safety and function.
Each motor comes from trustworthy sources or from my own inventory and is only passed on after a successful functional test.

Setting & reset cable hire for motors
Resetting tubular motors & setting limits: optional hire cable
For a factory reset or readjustment of the limit positions, many 230 V tubular motors may require a setting cable, particularly when the reset sequence must be triggered via the circuit breaker (fuse) and the motor is out of sight or earshot.
Many motors confirm the reset with a clicking sound or a brief motor movement. With a universal setting & reset cable for hire, commissioning or resetting is easier to monitor, without repeatedly moving between the motor and the fuse box.
The hire cable is not included in this motor offer, but can be ordered separately from the shop, subject to availability.
