– some “3-wire” motors may include a capacitor wire (rare), but the standard tubular motor for roller shutters follows the scheme described above.

Voici le guide complet pour réaliser votre installation en toute sécurité. 1. Comprendre les 3 fils du volet roulant

L (230V) ---+---[Relay1 COM]---[NO]--- Brown (Up) | +---[Relay2 COM]---[NO]--- Black (Down) N ------------------------------------ Blue

3-wire roller shutter motors have built-in mechanical or electronic limit switches. These are not additional external wires. The limit switches internally cut the phase to the brown or black wire when the shutter reaches the end position.

⚠️ The blue wire is not a return from the load; it is the permanent neutral. The motor direction is determined by which of the two phase wires (brown or black) receives 230V AC.

The simplest control uses a with a center-off position (often called a “inverseur avec arrêt central” or “volet roulant switch”).

| Symptom | Likely Cause | Solution | |---------|--------------|----------| | Motor runs in opposite direction | Brown and black swapped | Invert them at switch or controller | | Motor only goes one way | One limit switch stuck or broken | Test continuity; replace motor head | | Motor does not move at all | No neutral to blue wire | Verify blue is connected to N | | Shutter stops mid-way | Overheating protection (thermal cutout) | Wait 15 minutes; check for obstruction | | Both directions dead but motor hums | Mechanical jam or failed capacitor (rare in 3-wire? Note: Some 3-wire motors have internal capacitor. Check datasheet) | Remove shutter fabric; check capacitor |
