Alpha WSER50 10/27 Universal Motor
⚠️ This is a 240V hardwired motor and requires an electrician for wiring. If you need a battery motor, see the WSERD series HERE.
The Alpha WSER50 10/27 Universal Motor is a compact yet powerful 240V tubular motor specifically engineered for external straight drop blinds, zip screens, roller shutters, and large internal blinds requiring smooth automation and reliable torque control. As part of Alpha’s popular WSER50 series, the Alpha WSER50 10/27 Universal Motor offers industry-leading performance for both residential and commercial outdoor shading systems.
With 10Nm torque and a fast 27rpm speed, this motor is ideal for applications where responsiveness, strong lifting capacity, and fabric tensioning are essential. The built-in torque stop function allows the system to gently stop on mechanical stoppers at the top limit in side-channel systems and apply controlled tension when the blind is fully lowered. This makes it highly effective for zip screens, café blinds, and any external straight-drop system requiring consistent, reliable tensioning.
The motor includes a built-in receiver, electronic limit switches, and wireless limit setting, paired with an external antenna for strong signal range. It is fully compatible with RS001 and RS002 Sun/Wind Sensors, and includes Alpha’s automatic safety protocol: when an awning is down, the motor expects a sensor “heartbeat” every 20 minutes. If the signal stops (typically from a flat battery), the motor automatically retracts after about 30 minutes to protect the system.
Featuring a 45mm motor diameter body and a total length of 570mm, the Alpha WSER50 10/27 Universal Motor fits into 63mm and larger tubes, making it versatile across many blind and shutter configurations. It includes the A2424 crown & drive set and A3415 universal motor bracket.
This motor is a dependable choice for external drop systems, roller shutters, and medium-to-large automated blinds needing precise control and responsive safety functions.
