Overview
Wood Blinds are operated by quiet, precision control drives. The Electronic Drive Unit (EDU) is housed in the headrail and provides independent control of tilt. Tilt angle can be stored as a preset and recalled with the touch of a button. Cordless manual lift and lower allows the blind to be positioned at any height.
Features
- Single blinds available in widths up to 72 in (1829 mm), and heights up to 72 in (1829 mm).
- System width up to 96 in (2438 mm) possible when configured as 2 blinds under one valance.
- Provides maximum window coverage with the smallest possible light gaps; 1/4 in (6 mm) from slat ends to the window frame.
- Tilt can be adjusted to vary the privacy/view level at any blind position.
- Slats go to a pre-determined tilt angle when a stored preset is recalled.
- Multiple presets can be defined for the same blind or group of blinds.
- Slats are made of stable, high quality North American basswood, available in a wide variety of painted and stained finishes.
- 2 optional valance styles are available.
- Simple installation for both inside mount and outside mount applications.
- Low-profile mounting brackets and EDU controls minimize light gap at the top of the headrail.
- Blind components are designed for ultra-quiet operation (tilt operation will not exceed 44 dBA measured 3 ft [1 m] from EDU).
- Battery-powered, wired power, and manual tilt models available.
- The EDU maintains consistent tilt speed throughout the battery life cycle by monitoring battery voltage and compensating for variations in the mechanical load.
- Built-in wireless communication using ClearConnect Type A technology, providing control range of 30 ft (9 m).
- Compatible with handheld Pico wireless remote control and the Lutron 4-Group blind wireless remote control.
- Serena blinds are compatible with Caséta Wireless systems.
- Triathlon blinds are compatible with Lutron RA2 Select and Caséta Pro systems.
- In Caséta Wireless, Caséta Pro and RA2 Select systems, blinds can be controlled by Natural Light Optimization. This feature automatically tilts blinds to preset angles throughout the day to diffuse direct sunlight and maximize daylight comfort in any space.

Dimensions
Installed Blind (inside mount)
Diagram Description: An illustration showing an installed blind within a window frame. Key dimensions include a minimum window frame depth requirement of 2 inches (51 mm) for inside mount applications. A depth of 3 5/8 inches (92 mm) or more is needed to fully recess the blind. A 0.25 inch (6 mm) gap is indicated.
- Window frame depth must be at least 2 in (51 mm) for inside mount applications.
- Window frame depth must be 3 5/8 in (92 mm) or more to fully recess blind in window frame.
- Refer to Application Note #752 for information about specifying valance returns for inside mount applications.
Installed Blind (outside mount)
Diagram Description: An illustration showing an installed blind mounted outside a window frame. Key dimensions include a system profile of 3.50 inches (89 mm) and the window opening of 3.00 inches (76 mm). The bracket-to-bracket/valance width is equal to the inside window dimension, with the headrail and slats receiving a 0.5 inch (12 mm) deduction. The window trim/valance width is 1.5 inches (38 mm) wider than the specified window dimension.
Two Blinds Under One Valance (inside mount shown)
Diagram Description: An illustration depicting two blinds installed beneath a single valance, as viewed from an inside mount perspective. It highlights 0.25 inch (6 mm) gaps between the blinds and the window frame on each side.
Mounting Brackets
Diagram Description: Various mounting hardware components are illustrated with detailed dimensions. These include Left & Right mounting brackets (1.19 in x 2.44 in), a Combined Right/Left mounting bracket for 2 blinds under 1 valance (2.40 in x 2.44 in), a Center Support (1.75 in x 2.3 in), a Bracket Spacer Block (1.00 in x 2.25 in), and a Hold Down Bracket.
Valance Options
Two valance styles are available for inside and outside mount applications: Morgan and Easton.
Inside Mount Valances
Diagram Description: Visual representations of the 'Morgan' and 'Easton' valance styles for inside mount applications. Both styles have a height of 3.00 inches (76 mm). The Morgan valance features a more decorative profile, while the Easton offers a simpler, traditional design. The maximum valance width is 96 inches (2438 mm).
Valance With Returns
Valances can be specified with returns for outside mount and certain inside mount applications with partial recess. The standard return depth is 3.00 inches (76.2 mm) measured from the back of the valance. Custom returns can be specified in any dimension between 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) and 4 inches (101.6 mm). Refer to Application Note #752 for details on custom valance return sizes.

Power Options
Battery Power
Batteries are not included. Quantity requirement varies with blind size.
| Blind Width | Batteries Required |
|---|---|
| 20 in (508 mm) to 28 in (711 mm) | 12 AA Lithium |
| 28 1/8 in (714 mm) to 42 1/8 in (1070 mm) | 4 D-Cell Alkaline |
| 42 1/4 in (1073 mm) to 72 in (1829 mm) | 8 D-Cell Alkaline |
| 54 in (1372 mm) to 72 in (1829 mm) with Battery Boost option | 12 D-Cell Alkaline |
Notes: The width ranges shown above are for an outside-mount blind. Install new batteries. Do not mix brands or types. Lutron recommends Energizer® Lithium AA batteries, and Duracell® or RAYOVAC® D-Cell Alkaline batteries. The Battery Boost option is available for blinds wider than 54 in (1372 mm) and adds (4) batteries for extended battery life. To maintain performance in buildings with 20 or more Lutron Radio Powr Savr Sensors, Lutron recommends powering blinds with a wired power supply.
