    Drive

    Lutron's submittals 085745 and 085275 rate the drive at 6 to 12 V DC, 5 W, 2.5 in-lb (0.28 N m) and 1.8 in/sec. The drive stops at 0.125 in (3 mm) intervals and keeps a 30 ft (9 m) Clear Connect RF range.

    Power

    Brochure 3672208 gives three power routes: Tap 'n' Tilt batteries, a plug-in supply, or a panel for ten shades. Submittal 085745 limits batteries to matching 1.5 V AA lithium or alkaline D cells.

    Questions about Triathlon

    Eight questions specifiers ask about Triathlon honeycomb shades, answered from the Lutron submittals and brochure named in each answer.

    What is Lutron Sivoia QS Triathlon?

    Lutron's brochure 3672208 (rev M) presents Sivoia QS Triathlon as automated shading in roller, honeycomb and wood blind styles.

    • Power: batteries, plug-in or panel; wired for hard-to-reach windows
    • Drive: answers RF at once, idles in Eco mode, bottom rail aligned
    • Integrates with Caséta (Smart Bridge PRO), RA2 Select, RadioRA 2, HomeWorks QS

    How big can a Sivoia QS Triathlon honeycomb shade be?

    Up to 96 in (2438 mm) wide, and 104 in (2642 mm) tall for the architectural shade (085745).

    • Insulating (085275): from 14.5 in (368 mm) wide, up to 96 in (2438 mm) tall
    • Architectural (085745): from 21 in (533 mm) wide and 12 in (305 mm) tall
    • Maximum width 96 in (2,438 mm): brochure 3672208, selection guide 3684408

    What is the difference between Triathlon and Serena honeycomb shades?

    Lutron prints both on one submittal with the same sizes, ratings and brackets; the controls differ.

    • Serena (085745): Pico, 4-Group RF Shade Remote Control, Caséta Wireless
    • Sivoia QS Triathlon: Pico, 4-Group remote, RadioRA 2, RA2 Select, RadioRA 3, HomeWorks QS, HomeWorks QSX, GRAFIK Eye QS, seeTouch RF keypads, Caséta Pro

    Lutron's Pico submittal 369847 shows the same split.

    Which Lutron systems and keypads control Sivoia QS Triathlon honeycomb shades?

    Lutron's submittal 085745 and brochure 3672208 list the Triathlon controls and keypad families.

    • Submittal 085745: Pico, 4-Group RF remote, RadioRA 2, RA2 Select, RadioRA 3, HomeWorks QS, HomeWorks QSX, GRAFIK Eye QS, seeTouch RF keypads, Caséta Pro
    • Pico scene keypads: any residential system; Palladiom keypads: HomeWorks QS
    • seeTouch, GRAFIK T: RadioRA 2, HomeWorks QS; Caséta via Smart Bridge PRO

    Does a Sivoia QS Triathlon honeycomb shade need a power panel?

    No: brochure 3672208 presents batteries where no wire can be pulled, and a panel for renovations and new builds.

    • Panel CSPS-P1-10-6 (085276): ten shades at 12 V and 5 A
    • Panel runs to 200 ft (60 m) on 16 AWG (1,5 mm²)
    • Plug-in CSPS-P1-1-6-WH (085283): one shade

    Submittals 085745 and 085275 list battery, wired and cordless manual models.

    How deep a recess does an inside-mounted Triathlon honeycomb shade need?

    Lutron's selection guide 3684408 gives 2 1/2 in (64 mm) of full-recess depth for a battery shade on Tap 'n' Tilt brackets.

    • Manual shade on stationary brackets: 2 in (51 mm)
    • Outside mount: headrail top at least 3 1/8 in (80 mm) above the trim
    • Spacers included clear trim up to 1/2 in (13 mm) thick

    What R value do Lutron insulating honeycomb fabrics have?

    Lutron's submittal 085275 rates insulating fabrics at 3.4 to 4.3; submittal 085300 adds Sedona sheer 0.7, Prague woven 0.9.

    • Light-filtering single cell: Cyprus, Monaco and Rio 3.5; Napa 3.4
    • Light-filtering double cell: Monaco and Rio 3.6
    • Room-darkening: Cyprus, Monaco and Rio 4.3; Cyprus available fire rated

    Lutron shows 7/16 in and 9/16 in cell profiles for general reference only.

    How are the batteries changed on a Triathlon honeycomb shade?

    Lutron's Tap 'n' Tilt headrail (3672208): press the release buttons, tilt forward, change the batteries, snap back. The shade stays on its brackets.

    Submittal 085745 confirms the brackets give access to the battery boxes after mounting. A shade too narrow for in-headrail holders carries an eight-AA holder on the headrail's back, with rear spacers (085275).
