AQT1 60nm 24V Motor with 15m Cable – Certikin Aquatronic Semi-Automatic Roller
Introduction
The motor is the heart of any automatic pool cover system, and the AQT1 represents Certikin’s proven engineering for reliable semi-automatic roller operation. As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I stock this essential replacement motor that powers the respected Aquatronic roller range, designed to handle substantial pool covers with dependable, energy-efficient performance.
Motor Performance
The AQT1 delivers 60 Newton-metres of torque through its 24V DC motor system, providing ample power for covers up to 112.5m² while maintaining energy efficiency and safety. The low-voltage design eliminates mains voltage risks in wet pool environments, while built-in thermal cut-out protection prevents overheating and extends motor life by automatically shutting down if temperatures exceed safe parameters.
Pre-set mechanical limit switches control start/stop positions with precision, ensuring your cover stops exactly at the correct fully open and closed positions every time. These mechanical switches offer superior reliability compared to electronic alternatives in challenging outdoor pool environments.
Cable & Installation
The motor includes a professional-grade 15-metre long, 8mm diameter, 7-core YY control cable that connects directly to the main control panel. This substantial cable length provides installation flexibility for various pool configurations and can be extended using standard 10amp connections up to 30 meters maximum total length.
The motor pre-installs directly into the roll-up tube, simplifying installation and maintenance while ensuring reliable signal transmission for direction control, limit switch feedback, and power delivery.
System Compatibility
Designed specifically for Certikin Aquatronic semi-automatic roller systems, this motor suits pools up to 15m x 7.5m or covers up to 112.5m² where maximum width is 7.5m. The system integrates with Aquatronic control panels that feature simple plug-in installation – no hard wiring required.
