Automate E6 Motor - 6Nm - AC 240 Volt - Roller Blind Motor

Built for Hardwired Motorised Roller Blinds

The Automate E6 is a 240V AC motor designed for permanent installations where reliability and consistent power are essential.

Unlike battery motors, the E6 is hardwired directly into your home’s electrical system, making it ideal for larger roller blinds or high-use areas where charging isn’t practical.

Ready to Install — No Guesswork

The E6 is supplied as a complete, ready-to-install motor with:

• Pre-attached S45 crown and drive
• Lead motor cable

This reduces install time and eliminates the common mistakes that come with loose components and separate wiring.

Once the in-line lead is connected by an electrician, the system is plug and play.

Full Control — Remote, App or Smart Home

One of the key advantages of the E6 motor is its flexibility.

You can control your blinds using:

• Automate handheld remotes
• Wall switches
• Automate Pulse hubs (for app and voice control)
• Integration with smart home systems

This allows you to run a simple remote setup or build a fully automated smart home system.
