3.1 - PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
Important! – Before proceeding with the installation, it is necessary to
check that this motor
model is suited to the characteristics of the roller shutter to be
automated and that it is compatible with the installation environment.
Therefore, carry out the following checks:
• 01. Define the material of your roller shutter.
02. Calculate the surface area of the roller shutter (length x height =
m
......?)
2
03. See data in Table A and check whether the corresponding tubular
motor code for your tubular motor is listed.
CAUTION! – If the motor is not appropriate, halt the installation
and contact the Helpdesk.

3.1.1 - Warnings
• This tubular motor can automate a roller shutter where the length of
the case (the closed housing containing the roller tube which is located
above the window) is 90 mm longer than the roller shutter width (fig. 3).
• The tubular motor can only be installed to the interior of a sheet metal
roller tube, with octagonal cross-section, with an inner circle diameter of
60 mm and an included sheet thickness between 0.6 and 1 mm (fig. 4).
• The length of the roller tube must be calculated taking into account the
following advised minimum and maximum limits:
– the minimum length must be, where possible, slightly greater than
the length of the roller shutter to be automated;
– the maximum length must be equal to the length of the existing
case less 90 mm.
Allow 45 mm at each end of the tube (fig. 5).
Details of RMKIT AXS 3017 Kit lifting capacity
Note that RMKIT AXS 3017 kit allows motorisation of a roller shut-
ter whose carriage weight is 55 kg maximum for a height of 2500
mm maximum. These lifting capacities do not take into account
any excessive friction that may occur.
