Product Overview

Somfy Ixengo JL 230V is a screw-type electromechanical swing gate motor kit for Abu Dhabi residential and collective entrance gates. It is designed for rigid swing gates made from wood, metal, or aluminium, with official Somfy limits reaching up to 4 m per leaf when the correct installation conditions and electric lock requirements are met. The system uses the CB 230 RTS control box and supports manual unlocking with an individual key, making it practical for semi-intensive gate automation where strength, access control, and safe operation are required.

Use Cases

Compatibility and Installation Notes

Somfy Ixengo JL 230V must be installed on a mechanically sound swing gate with proper pillar and gate-leaf mounting points. Somfy states that ground stop blocks are compulsory for both opening and closing, and the gate must be stopped before the cylinders reach their travel limits. For larger leaves or windy sites, Somfy recommends using an electric lock to reduce mechanical stress and improve holding resistance. Professional installation is strongly recommended for bracket positioning, CB 230 RTS wiring, photocell alignment, safety testing, and correct commissioning. Installers can review the official installation instructions before fitting the system.

The Somfy Ixengo JL 230V is the only screw-type swing gate motorization in the POWERgate Abu Dhabi range. All other surface swing gate motors use a linear rod actuator (a motor that pushes and pulls a solid metal rod). A screw motorization converts rotary motor output directly through a lead screw thread into linear movement, rather than a gear-and-rod mechanism. This produces smoother, more consistent force throughout the stroke, lower acoustic noise, and a more compact mechanism at 5.5 kg and 300mm stroke — even while delivering 3000N of force.

Somfy publishes the Ixengo JL’s capacity as a gate-size-dependent table: up to 1000 kg at 1.5m leaf length or 300 kg at 4.0m, both with an electric lock fitted. Without an electric lock, the maximum leaf is 2m with no specified weight ceiling beyond gate construction limits. The 1000 kg capacity at 1.5m is among the highest short-leaf weight ratings in the POWERgate Abu Dhabi range, making the Ixengo JL suitable for heavy ornamental iron gates on Abu Dhabi villas where the leaf is short but structurally very heavy.

Somfy specifies the Ixengo JL’s 3000N of traction (pull) and 3000N of push force. Most motors in the range publish a single thrust figure without specifying whether it is push or pull dominant. The screw mechanism’s geometry produces equal force in both extension and retraction directions, meaning the Ixengo JL operates at full rated capacity whether the gate is opening or closing. For heavy Abu Dhabi gates where wind or gate weight creates significant resistance in both directions equally, symmetric 3000N bidirectional force ensures consistent performance throughout the gate’s cycle without a weaker direction.

The Somfy Ixengo JL uses RTS (Radio Technology Somfy) — Somfy’s proprietary one-way 433 MHz rolling code radio protocol. The CB 230 RTS control box includes an integrated RTS receiver, and the kit supplies two Keytis 2 RTS remote controls. RTS remotes are paired to the CB 230 RTS during commissioning. Because RTS is proprietary, only Somfy RTS-compatible transmitters work with the system — generic 433 MHz remotes are not compatible. Additional Somfy RTS remotes can be paired for multiple users, and the Somfy ecosystem includes RTS-compatible keypads and smartphone interfaces.

The Somfy Ixengo JL uses permanent grease inside the screw mechanism — factory-applied lubricant sealed within the housing that does not require periodic re-greasing during the motor’s service life. This reduces maintenance requirements compared to motors specifying scheduled lubrication intervals. Separately, Somfy states that ground stop blocks are compulsory for both the opening and closing positions. Physical stops in the gate path prevent the Ixengo JL’s screw from reaching the end of its 300mm stroke under motor power, which would damage the mechanism. The gate must be stopped by the ground blocks before the cylinder reaches its travel limit.

The Somfy Ixengo JL 230V carries a 24-month manufacturer warranty. Critical requirements: ground stop blocks must be installed before commissioning — the screw mechanism is damaged if the cylinder reaches end-of-travel under motor power. For gate leaves exceeding 2m or in windy Abu Dhabi locations, an electric lock is mandatory. The left-hand and right-hand motors supplied must be correctly matched to their respective gate leaves. The IP54 rating provides good outdoor protection. Only Somfy RTS remotes are compatible with the CB 230 RTS. Contact POWERgate Abu Dhabi on WhatsApp (+971 50 884 4933) or sales@powergatead.com.
