230Nm shutter motor specifications

Choosing the right 230Nm shutter motor

Choose the motor by the weight of your shutter curtain and the barrel size. Send us your shutter width, height, gauge and barrel diameter and we will confirm 230Nm is right before you order. Electrical work should be done by a competent installer.

Fitting tips

Before fitting a 230Nm shutter motor, isolate the power and support the shutter curtain so it cannot drop. Check the barrel, brackets and bearings for wear, fit the new part, then set the open and closed limits carefully and test the shutter through several full cycles. Electrical work should always be carried out by a competent, qualified person. For more guidance, see the Electrical Safety First website.

Need help choosing?

Not sure which motor or bearing you need? Send us the width and height of your shutter, the gauge of the laths and a photo of the barrel end or old motor label. Our team regularly helps engineers and shop owners choose the right shutter parts, so the shutter is back in use quickly.

Care and maintenance

Have your roller shutter serviced regularly. Keep the guide rails clean and lubricated, check the curtain runs freely and listen for unusual noises. A shutter that drags or sticks puts extra load on the 230Nm shutter motor and shortens its life.
