Olide Double Chain SD400 Automatic Window Opener

The Olide Double Chain SD400 represents a high-performance leap in architectural automation, specifically engineered to manage the structural demands of oversized and heavy-duty window systems. By utilizing a synchronized double-chain mechanism, the SD400 provides balanced thrust and pull forces that prevent frame warping and ensure a hermetic seal on windows up to 70kg. Its 400mm stroke length and robust 24V DC motor make it the definitive choice for commercial and high-end residential ventilation projects where reliability and structural integrity are non-negotiable.

Quick Answer

The Olide SD400 is a 24V DC motorized actuator designed for large or heavy top-hung, casement, and skylight windows, offering a 400mm opening distance and a 70kg lifting capacity via a stabilized double-chain system.

Dual-Point Stabilization: Double stainless steel chains prevent window torsion on wide frames.
High Load Threshold: Engineered to operate heavy glass panels and frames up to 70kg.
Extended 400mm Stroke: Delivers significant airflow for industrial and commercial ventilation.
Industrial-Grade Durability: Powder-coated aluminum housing with an IP42 weather resistance rating.
Wide Temperature Tolerance: Reliable operation in extreme environments ranging from -10°C to +70°C.

Choose the Olide SD400 if you are automating windows wider than 1200mm or weighing over 40kg. Its double-chain system offers the structural stability and balanced force necessary for long-term reliability in heavy-duty commercial or industrial environments.

✓ Who Should Buy

  • Commercial facility managers looking to automate large-scale ventilation systems.
  • Residential owners with heavy, oversized skylights or high-reach top-hung windows.
  • Architects designing smoke extraction or natural ventilation paths in wide-frame window layouts.

✕ Who Should Avoid

  • Users with standard-sized, lightweight residential windows (a single-chain actuator like the SD200 is more efficient).
  • Installations requiring a completely hidden, 'in-frame' concealed actuator profile.
Product Overview
The Olide Double Chain SD400 is a specialized actuator designed for large-scale window automation where standard single-chain motors fail. Measuring 1055mm in length, the unit distributes force across two points of the window sash, making it uniquely suited for wide casements and heavy skylights. This design effectively eliminates the common issue of window 'cocking' or uneven closure, ensuring that even the largest glass panels maintain their weather-tight seal and structural alignment over thousands of cycles. Built with a focus on longevity and power, the SD400 operates at a controlled speed of 8mm/s, prioritizing high-torque output over rapid movement. This makes it exceptionally safe for heavy applications. The unit is surface-mounted, allowing for straightforward integration into existing window profiles, and is compatible with various control systems, including wired wall switches or optional remote modules, providing flexible integration into building management systems (BMS).

Engineering Analysis
The SD400's internal architecture is centered around a high-reduction gearbox that converts 24V DC electrical energy into a linear force capable of moving 70kg. The double-chain configuration is the core engineering highlight; it uses a synchronized drive shaft to ensure both chains extend at the exact same rate, preventing the asymmetric stress that typically leads to seal failure in wide windows. The IP42 rating provides essential protection against solid objects and vertical water drops, while the integrated safety stop mechanism utilizes current-sensing technology to halt the motor if an obstruction is detected, preventing damage to the motor or the window frame.
