    About Palladiom Wire-Free

    Lutron's Palladiom Wire-Free roller shade is a motorized shade on exposed solid aluminum or brass brackets. The shade runs on D-cell alkaline batteries in a sleeve inside the drive.

    • Drive: 4.5 to 9.0 V DC, batteries in a sleeve inside it
    • Radio: integrated ClearConnect Type A, 30 ft (9 m) range
    • Brochure 3686194: installed without pocket, fascia or top treatment
    • Takes no more than 3.25 in of vertical space when open (3686194)
    • Battery life: 3 to 5 years on six D-cells (brochures 3686194, 3671319)

    Sizes and noise

    The guide below prints the shade's sizes, light gaps, noise and bracket limits from submittal 085708. Lutron does not recommend a pocket or recess for the shade and limits dual mounting.

    Controls and batteries

    Submittal 085708 lists the compatible controls, from the Pico to HomeWorks QSX. Shade width sets the battery count, three to six D-cells, and the ordering tool estimates their life.

    Writing it into a tender

    A specifier attaches submittal 085708; the installer follows guides 045893 (chassis and setup), 045913 (setup) and 045908 (drive replacement). CAD drawings 085709 to 085737 carry the wall, ceiling, jamb, center, dual and corner mounts, and 085590 the bottom rail.

    Questions about Palladiom Wire-Free

    Eight questions specifiers ask about Palladiom Wire-Free roller shades, answered from submittal 085708 and the brochures named.

    How wide can a Lutron Palladiom Wire-Free shade be?

    Up to 12 ft (3.66 m) wide and 12 ft (3.66 m) tall, per submittal 085708.

    • Minimum size 21 in (53.34 cm) wide, 12 in (30.48 cm) tall
    • Tall, narrow shades: fabric deduction up to 0.25 in (6 mm) per side

    With the deduction a black bearing sleeve shows between bracket and fabric roll, not a bare tube.

    How many batteries does a Palladiom Wire-Free shade take?

    Three, four or six 1.5 V D-cells, set by shade width in submittal 085708.

    • Three cells: 21 in (53.34 cm) to 23 3/16 in (58.90 cm)
    • Four cells: 23 1/4 in (59.05 cm) to 29 5/8 in (75.25 cm)
    • Six cells: 29 11/16 in (75.41 cm) to 144 in (365.8 cm)

    Batteries not included; never mix brands or types.

    How long do Palladiom Wire-Free batteries last?

    Brochures 3686194 and 3671319 quote 3 to 5 years of battery life on six D-cells. Submittal 085708 says life varies with shade size, fabric weight and daily use; the ordering tool calculates each estimate.

    The advertised life needs batteries from Lutron's recommended brands; application note 048561 covers optimizing battery life.

    Can a Palladiom Wire-Free shade go in a pocket or recess?

    Submittal 085708 does not recommend a pocket or recess; fitting and removing the shade needs 6 in (150 mm) room-side clearance.

    • Wall and jamb mounts: bracket depth 0.625 in (16 mm) for battery access
    • Ceiling mounts: 2.50 in (63.5 mm) mounting depth
    • Sleeve room: 7.5 in (190.5 mm), 10.0 in (254 mm) or 15.0 in (381 mm)

    Which controls work with Lutron Palladiom Wire-Free shades?

    Submittal 085708 pairs the shade with these controls over its ClearConnect Type A radio, 30 ft (9 m) range.

    • Pico wireless control; 4-Group RF shade remote (installation guide 045411)
    • Caséta Smart Hub PRO, RA2 Select, RadioRA 3
    • HomeWorks QS, HomeWorks QSX

    Brochure 3686194 adds HomeWorks integration and the Lutron app for schedules and remote control, with a low-battery notice.

    What is the difference between Palladiom Wire-Free and wired Palladiom?

    Submittal 085708 runs the Wire-Free shade on 4.5 to 9.0 V DC from D-cell batteries, with ClearConnect Type A control. Brochure 3671319 offers Palladiom wired or wire-free, both for exposed applications without a fascia, pocket or recess.

    Brochure 3686194 offers seven bracket finishes chosen to coordinate with Palladiom keypads, thermostats and wired Palladiom shades.

    Can a Palladiom Wire-Free shade mount on a door or corner?

    Yes: submittal 085708 gives door applications an operator bracket whose slide ring moves vertically, so door movement cannot extend it.

    In a butt and pass corner the idler brackets go in the corner, leaving the pass shade's operator bracket free. CAD drawings 085736 and 085737 show the butt and pass and corner to corner details.

    Which documents go into a tender for Lutron Palladiom Wire-Free shades?

    Submittal 085708, with installation guides 045893 (chassis and setup), 045913 (setup) and 045908 (drive replacement).

    The library holds no Revit family for this shade.
