Siemens Building Technology 544-973 Sensor
The Siemens Building Technology 544-973 Sensor is a professional-grade, flush-mount solution designed for critical HVAC and building automation systems (BAS). Built with a 1k Ohm Platinum RTD (Pt RTD) sensing element with a 375-alpha coefficient, this sensor provides high-accuracy resistance output for precise temperature monitoring. Unlike standard wall-mounted units, the 544-973 features a low-profile metal cover plate made of brushed stainless steel, making it ideal for high-traffic environments, schools, or offices where a traditional protruding sensor might be prone to damage. It is engineered to fit directly over a standard 2 x 4 electrical conduit box and utilizes reliable pigtail lead connections for secure field installation. This non-display unit is optimized for BAS controller compatibility, delivering stable readings across its 32°F to 122°F operating range. The tamper-resistant design ensures long-term performance in institutional settings without the need for additional protective cages.
Key Benefits- Vandal-Resistant Design: The flush-mount stainless steel cover plate provides a low-profile finish that resists tampering and physical damage in public spaces.
- Precision Sensing: Features a 1k Ohm Platinum RTD (375 alpha) element for high-stability linear resistance signal output.
- Standardized Integration: Fits standard 2 x 4 junction boxes, streamlining replacements and new installations for electrical contractors.
- Environmental Durability: The metallic housing is suitable for demanding applications, including washdown environments or areas requiring frequent cleaning.
- Legacy Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with Siemens Apogee and other major building automation controllers requiring a 1000 Ohm Pt RTD input.
Is the 544-973 sensor compatible with non-Siemens controllers?
Yes, as long as the controller is configured to accept a 1k Ohm Platinum RTD (375 alpha) passive resistance signal, this sensor will provide accurate temperature data regardless of the brand.
Can the faceplate be customized or painted?
The standard brushed stainless steel plate is designed for durability, but many contractors paint the faceplate to match specific interior aesthetics without impacting the internal sensing element's accuracy.
Does this unit come with mounting hardware?
Typically, these sensors are installed using standard tamper-proof screws (often included) to ensure the plate remains securely attached to the electrical box in high-traffic zones.
