The Keys to Siemens Regulation: From Sensor to Actuator

In building management systems (BMS), Siemens components are essential for automation. A high-performance system relies on seamless communication between the measuring device and the control element.

1. Siemens Thermostat: Measurement and Comfort

The Siemens thermostat is the dialogue point between the user and the heating system. It is not just used to display the temperature but also to finely control heating, often through sophisticated protocols.

We provide wired or wireless programmable room thermostats, essential for managing independent heating zones and optimizing time slots. Choosing the right model ensures precise settings (+/- 0.5°C), directly translating into savings.

2. Siemens Actuator: Action and Efficiency

The Siemens actuator is the hydraulic actuator. Its role is to precisely position valves (mixing valves or zone valves) in order to control the flow of hot water to a given circuit.

As the centerpiece of the heating zone, it must be fully compatible with the regulation electronics (0-10V signal, 3 points) and the valve it is mounted on. Replacing a faulty actuator allows for immediate restoration of optimal control over the water mix (supply/return) and avoids unnecessary overheating.

Advice for Identification and Compatibility

With Siemens' extensive and highly technical range, it is vital to check the specifications of the part to be replaced:

• Product reference: Always rely on the 7 or 8 character code on the label (e.g., RDE10.1). This code determines the function, voltage, and communication protocol.

• For Actuators: Check the power (torque) and stroke duration (opening/closing time) to ensure it can move your valve.

Expert Tip: When replacing a Siemens thermostat or a Siemens actuator, check the configuration of the dip switches or the initial programming. Incorrect calibration of the zero point or end stroke can lead to malfunctions, even if the part is new.
