Technical Specifications

SOMFY ELIXO 2000 Heavy-Duty Sliding Gate Motor

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 is engineered for heavy automatic sliding gates where smaller residential gate operators do not provide sufficient capacity.

With support for gates weighing up to 2,000 KG and measuring up to 20 metres, it is suitable for large commercial properties, industrial facilities, warehouses, factories and other demanding vehicle entrances.

2000 KG Sliding Gate Capacity

The ELIXO 2000 is designed to automate compatible sliding gates weighing up to 2 tonnes.

Gate weight is only one factor when selecting an automatic gate motor. Gate length, wheel condition, track alignment, operating frequency, wind load and mechanical resistance should also be evaluated before installation.

Up to 20 Metre Sliding Gates

SOMFY specifies the ELIXO 2000 for compatible sliding gates measuring up to 20 metres.

For long and heavy gates, correct wheel selection, track alignment, gate structure and rack installation are particularly important for reliable automatic operation.

230V AC Heavy-Duty Motor

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 operates from a 220–230V AC 50/60Hz power supply.

Its robust 230V architecture is designed for demanding sliding gate applications requiring strong and dependable operation.

750W Maximum Power Consumption

The ELIXO 2000 has a maximum power consumption of approximately 750W, providing the power required to automate compatible large and heavy sliding gates.

40Nm Maximum Torque

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 provides up to 40Nm maximum torque.

This strong mechanical output makes the operator suitable for demanding sliding gate applications when the gate is correctly installed and mechanically balanced.

9 Metres Per Minute Gate Speed

The ELIXO 2000 provides a nominal movement speed of approximately 9 metres per minute.

Actual complete opening time depends on the required gate travel distance and the configured slowdown areas.

Designed for Intensive Use

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 is specifically designed for heavy gates and intensive-use applications.

This makes it a suitable choice for entrances with higher operating requirements than typical residential sliding gate systems.

Full-Steel Motor Reducer Gear

The ELIXO 2000 incorporates a full-steel motor reducer gear designed to provide the mechanical strength required for large sliding gates.

Its robust gearbox construction contributes to dependable performance in demanding automatic gate applications.

Oil-Bath Lubrication

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 uses an oil-bath lubrication system for the reduction mechanism.

Oil-bath lubrication is particularly suitable for heavy-duty gear systems by providing continuous lubrication of internal mechanical components during operation.

Built-In Position Encoder

The ELIXO 2000 incorporates a built-in position encoder for precise monitoring and management of gate movement.

Encoder feedback allows the control system to accurately manage movement and slowdown phases during automatic gate operation.

Soft Stop & Slowdown Management

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 provides controlled slowdown areas to help reduce mechanical impact as the sliding gate approaches its end positions.

The slowdown area can be adjusted according to the installation requirements.

Adjustable Obstacle Impact Force

The ELIXO 2000 provides adjustable obstacle impact force to help reduce risks if the gate encounters an obstruction during operation.

This function should be correctly adjusted and tested during professional commissioning of the automatic gate system.

Photocell Safety Input

The ELIXO 2000 provides dedicated inputs for compatible photocell safety sensors.

Photocells can monitor the vehicle and pedestrian passage area and communicate an obstruction to the automatic gate control system.

Safety Edge Compatibility

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 also provides a dedicated input for a compatible safety edge.

Safety edges can provide an additional level of protection at potentially hazardous gate contact points.

SOMFY RTS Remote Control

The ELIXO 2000 incorporates SOMFY RTS radio technology operating at 433.42MHz.

Compatible SOMFY RTS remote controls can therefore be used for convenient wireless opening and closing of the automatic sliding gate.

Manual Release During Power Failure

The SOMFY ELIXO 2000 provides a manual release using an individual key.

This allows the operator to be disengaged during a power failure, emergency or maintenance so that a correctly installed gate can be moved manually.

Professional SOMFY ELIXO 2000 Installation

Professional installation is strongly recommended for the SOMFY ELIXO 2000 because it is designed for large and heavy sliding gates.

Before installation, the gate structure, foundation, track, wheels, mechanical resistance, motor base, steel gear rack, electrical supply and safety equipment should be carefully inspected.

The encoder, slowdown areas, obstacle force, photocells, safety edge and remote controls should be correctly configured and tested before the automatic gate is commissioned.
