Open and close your parasol with ease
A real boon when it comes to operating convenience is the practical motor drive that is available as an optional extra for the SCHATTELLO and ALBATROS large parasols. It allows you to open and close your parasol quickly and effortlessly by pressing a button on a radio transmitter – and this from a distance of up to 25 metres. The motor is not visible to the eye, as it is fully integrated into the parasol pole.
Getting started couldn’t be easier thanks to Plug&Play technology. A waterproof plug-in connector from the earth cable to the motor cable is included – just like a hand crank is for emergency use if there’s a power failure. The motorisation of your large parasol is rounded off by an optional wind sensor. It measures the wind speed and automatically gives the tubular motor the signal to close your parasol. Solar power and remote operation means no cables are required.
Your parasol is easy to integrate into many Smart Home systems using a special radio transmitter station. We even have instructions on how easy a connection to the home automation systems made by elero, elsner, Gira, Loxone, Rademacher and Somfy, as well as for the KNX standard, is to carry out.
Please note: The wind sensor is only an aid and does not absolve the operator from the obligation to close the parasols when the wind picks up, and to secure them with cords.
