Technical Specifications

Heavy-Duty SOMMER Swing Gate Motor

The SOMMER TWIST 350 is designed for larger and heavier swing gates where a standard residential operator may not provide sufficient capacity.

With support for compatible gates weighing up to 700 kg or leaves up to 4 metres wide, it provides a powerful automation solution for residential and commercial entrances.

Up to 700 KG Gate Weight

The TWIST 350 supports compatible swing gate leaves weighing up to 700 kg.

The actual permissible gate weight depends on gate leaf width, construction, filling, wind exposure, hinge condition and installation geometry.

Up to 4 Metre Gate Leaf

The SOMMER TWIST 350 is suitable for compatible swing gate leaves up to 4 metres wide.

This makes the operator particularly suitable for wide villa gates, residential compounds and selected commercial entrances.

24V DC Swing Gate Operator

The TWIST 350 uses a 24V DC motor powered through its compatible SOMMER control system.

The low-voltage motor system provides controlled gate movement together with SOMMER's electronic safety and automation functions.

Maximum 121° Opening Angle

Depending on the gate geometry and mounting dimensions, the TWIST 350 can achieve an opening angle of up to approximately 121 degrees.

The actual opening angle depends on hinge position, gate post dimensions and operator mounting geometry.

18 mm/s Maximum Thrust Speed

The SOMMER TWIST 350 provides a maximum thrust speed of approximately 18 mm/s.

The compatible control system also provides adjustable speed settings for configuring gate movement according to the installation.

40% Duty Cycle

With an ED 40% S3 duty cycle, the TWIST 350 provides a higher operating capacity than many lighter residential swing gate operators.

This makes it suitable for installations requiring more frequent automatic gate operation, subject to correct sizing and installation.

Suitable for Closed Gate Panels

SOMMER specifies the TWIST 350 as suitable for gates with closed panels.

However, gate filling and wind exposure can significantly increase the forces acting on an automatic swing gate. The complete gate dimensions and site conditions should therefore be checked before selecting the operator.

Single & Double-Leaf Swing Gates

The SOMMER TWIST 350 can be configured for both single-leaf and double-leaf swing gate installations.

For double gates, two TWIST 350 operators can be coordinated through the compatible SOMMER control system.

Universal Left & Right Installation

The TWIST 350 operator can be used universally for both left-hand and right-hand gate installations.

This provides installation flexibility for single and double-leaf gate configurations.

Outward Opening Swing Gates

The SOMMER TWIST 350 can also be used for selected outward-opening swing gate installations with the appropriate special fittings.

Gate geometry and available installation space should be checked before selecting an outward-opening configuration.

Automatic Closing Function

The compatible SOMMER control system supports automatic closing, allowing the gate to close automatically after a configured period when the required safety devices are installed and correctly configured.

Pedestrian Opening Function

A pedestrian gate function allows partial gate operation where configured, providing convenient pedestrian access without requiring the complete gate entrance to be opened.

Adjustable Obstacle Response

The SOMMER control system allows the gate's behaviour after encountering an obstacle to be configured for full or partial reversal.

Correct force settings and suitable safety devices are important for safe automatic gate operation.

Soft & Controlled Gate Movement

The TWIST 350 is designed for smooth automatic gate movement, helping reduce mechanical stress on the gate, hinges and automation components.

Correct installation and adjustment are important for achieving reliable long-term performance.

High Resistance Against External Forces

The TWIST 350 incorporates SOMMER's patented braking system, designed to provide high resistance against external forces acting on the gate.

This can be particularly useful for large swing gates exposed to demanding environmental or mechanical conditions.

IP44 Outdoor Gate Operator

The SOMMER TWIST 350 operator has an IP44 protection rating for correctly installed outdoor gate automation applications.

IP65 Control Unit

The compatible DTA-1 control unit is installed inside an IP65 protective housing, helping protect the automation electronics against dust and moisture.

Operating Temperature -30°C to +70°C

The TWIST 350 is specified for operation between approximately -30°C and +70°C.

Correct installation, ventilation and electrical protection remain important for dependable operation in demanding outdoor environments.

SOMloq2 Remote Control Technology

The TWIST 350 set uses SOMMER SOMloq2 radio technology at 868.95 MHz for compatible wireless gate operation.

Compatible SOMMER handheld transmitters can be programmed into the supplied radio receiver for convenient gate access.

40 Radio Memory Positions

The SOMup4 S2 receiver supplied with the compatible TWIST 350 set provides 40 radio memory positions.

The receiver also provides a slot for the optional SOMMER Memo memory extension, supporting up to 450 radio commands where required.

Manual Emergency Release

The TWIST 350 provides manual release functionality so the gate can be operated manually when required, such as during a power failure or maintenance.

After manual operation, the operator should be correctly re-engaged before returning the gate to automatic operation.

SOMMER TWIST 350 2-Leaf Kit

• 2 × SOMMER TWIST 350 swing gate operators
• Post and gate leaf mounting fittings
• 1 × DTA-1 control unit with IP65 housing
• 1 × SOMup4 S2 SOMloq2 radio receiver
• 1 × Pearl Vibe 4-command handheld transmitter
• Radio receiver with 40 memory positions
• Memo memory extension slot for up to 450 radio commands

Residential & Commercial Gate Applications

The SOMMER TWIST 350 is suitable for a wide range of compatible automatic swing gate installations, including villas, residential compounds, commercial properties, offices and private parking entrances.

Its high gate capacity and 40% duty cycle make it particularly suitable where a more powerful swing gate operator is required.

Check Gate Size Before Ordering

Before selecting the SOMMER TWIST 350, check the gate leaf width, gate weight, gate filling, wind exposure, hinge condition, opening angle, post dimensions and installation geometry.

The maximum 700 kg gate weight and maximum 4 metre leaf width should not automatically be treated as simultaneous limits for every gate design.

Professional SOMMER Gate Motor Installation

Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct operator geometry, mounting brackets, electrical wiring, control settings, remote programming and safety-device operation.

After installation, the gate should be tested through multiple complete opening and closing cycles to confirm smooth and reliable operation.
