Siemens Building Technology QAM2012.010 Sensor
The Siemens QAM2012.010 is a high-precision duct temperature sensor engineered for demanding building automation systems (BAS). This point-style sensor utilizes a 1k Ohm Platinum RTD (385 alpha) element to ensure linear and accurate thermal feedback across a wide range of -40°F to 180°F (-40°C to 82°C). Built with a 4-inch rigid probe and a rugged 2x4 galvanized steel junction box housing, it is designed for direct insertion into supply, return, or exhaust air ducts. The QAM2012.010 sensor provides a reliable resistance signal compatible with most major HVAC controllers, making it a standard choice for technicians seeking professional-grade HVAC duct temperature monitoring. The unit features simple lead-wire connections and requires no special tools for installation, allowing for rapid deployment in commercial air handling units or forced air systems.
Key Benefits- Precision Sensing Element: Utilizes a 1k Ohm Pt RTD (385a) for high accuracy and long-term stability in air temperature measurement.
- Durable Construction: Equipped with a 4-inch rigid probe and a standard NEMA 1 rated metallic enclosure with 1/2-inch knockouts.
- Wide Operating Range: rated for extreme environments from cold air intakes to high-heat return air streams.
- BAS Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with Siemens Building Technologies and other North American building automation systems.
Is the QAM2012.010 compatible with non-Siemens controllers?
Yes, as long as the controller provides a 1k Ohm Platinum RTD input with a 385 alpha curve, this sensor will operate accurately.
Does this sensor require a specific mounting orientation?
The 4-inch rigid probe should be installed perpendicular to the airflow to ensure the RTD element provides a representative reading of the duct temperature.
Can this be used for averaging temperature in large ducts?
This is a single-point sensor. For larger ducts where temperature stratification occurs, an averaging sensor from the QAM series would be more appropriate.
