July 13, 2011 – Siemens Industry introduces Series 2200 range of CO2 Room Units. These devices deliver reliable occupant comfort, even in the most demanding commercial building environments.

Designed to work with Siemens APOGEE Building Automation System and BACnet Programmable Terminal Equipment Controllers (PTEC), the units include sensing-only and fully interactive models. The family includes numerous options for zone level CO2, temperature and humidity sensing variants and elements.

On display models, a 96 × 64 pixel graphical organic light emitting diode display (OLED) alternately indicates zone CO2, temperature, humidity and/or day/night operation status. A convenient plug-in human machine interface (HMI) port is standard.

The maintenance free, compact, low profile units connect to the BACnet PTEC controller via the controller’s RJ-11 port. Ventilation slots in the room unit housing optimize airflow through the cover for fast measurement response and superior control.
