Page 1 of 4
Product Description
These sensors work with Siemens controllers. The
sensors use a 10K ohm thermistor to detect temperature.
The effective sensing range is 55°F to 95°F (13°C to
35°C).
NOTE: Any of these sensors can be mounted on
electrical boxes, stud-type mounting brackets, or
drywall. Obtain the necessary mounting hardware
and follow the appropriate mounting procedures
for the type of installation required.
