Zone Sensors and Themostats

Our zone sensors and thermostats provide accurate and reliable sensing that is critical to keeping your HVAC systems running at optimum levels. Models are available using wired or wireless communication depending on building requirements.

What is a zone sensor?

A zone sensor provides feedback to the control system on elements of the room that affect comfort, such as temperature and humidity, or safety, such as CO2.

Sensors for every need

Our sensors have been developed to provide solutions for every application, from executive suites to cafeterias, classrooms to retail stores. Trane has the right sensors and solutions to help you provide optimal indoor environemntal quality, occupant comfort and productivity.

CO2 Sensors

The Carbon Dioxide (CO2) sensor connects to a Tracer® building management system and the appropriate ventilation equipment. The Trane® CO2 sensor measures and records carbon dioxide in parts per million (ppm) in occupied building spaces. These carbon dioxide measurements are typically used to identify under-ventilated building zones and override outdoor airflow beyond design ventilation rates if the CO2 exceeds acceptable levels.

Temperature Sensors

Temperature sensors feature a full-line offering that provides flexibility for building occupants to choose various temperature and operating mode set points to meet their comfort levels. Trane® offers a full line of wired and wireless temperature sensors. Wired temperature sensors are the suitable alternative for locations that cannot accommodate wireless sensors or that require a service tool connection. Wireless temperature sensors, which provide easy and flexible installation, are a cost effective alternative to wired sensors.

Combination Temperature and Humidity Sensors

Trane® combination sensors use a polymer capacitive sensing element, which provides superior performance and longevity. Trane relative humidity and temperature sensors utilize a polymer capacitive-sensing element for reliable sensing accuracy and superb recovery from saturation. Temperature output is provided by a 10 kΩ, Type II thermistor. Both sensors are housed in a common enclosure for reduced installation costs and improved appearance.

What's with wireless?

Trane® Air-Fi® wireless communication is a reliable, flexible solution that frees you from the hassles associated with wired components for your building controls system. The system offers twice the signal range and four times the potential paths compared to other wireless systems on the market to help prevent communication failures. 

Adherence to ANSI/ASHRAE® Standards 125-2016 (BACnet Zigbee®), enables secure and reliable wireless monitoring and control over commercial building systems. It also conforms to the IEEE® 802.15.4 standard, which ensures that your wireless BAS Communication system will reliably coexist with other wireless systems, including Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

Not sure about wireless?

Our zone sensors and thermostats are available wired, too, with protocols like BACnet over IP or MSTP. 

Wired and wireless building communications each have their benefits and can be used together throughout your building or project.
