WHE5.. WHE6

Product catalog summary
Overview: Siemens' electronic heat cost allocators, models WHE5 and WHE6, are designed for decentralized installation to allocate heating costs based on actual consumption. They measure heat output from radiators and feature radio and optical interfaces for data readout.
Specifications: Available as one-sensor or two-sensor devices, these allocators support remote sensors and parallel transmission of AMR and walk-by data telegrams, compliant with OMS standards in C-mode. They are compatible with various radiator types but not suitable for steam heaters or systems with electric fans unless disabled.
Application: Primarily used in multi-family houses, office buildings, and by housing industry service providers.
Functions: Operate with or without communication interfaces, supporting walk-by and AMR data collection for remote data acquisition.
Technical Design: Features include continuous counting, battery life monitoring, and error display. The RF system supports S-mode and C-mode operations.
Types and Accessories: Various models with configurations like battery warnings and summer switch-off settings. Accessories include mounting plates and installation parts.
Limitations: WHE2 series cannot be replaced by WHE5 or WHE6 due to incompatibility in measuring algorithms and RF transmitters.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for components and accessories like screws, nuts, remote sensor sets, and programming tools.
Product Documentation: System manual available in multiple languages. Related documents downloadable from Siemens' website.
Engineering and Installation: Designed for wall mounting, must adhere to system manual and ambient conditions.
Maintenance and Disposal: Maintenance-free, disposal must comply with European Directive 2012/19/EU.
Warranty: Warranty provided if technical data are complied with; third-party products void warranty.
Technical Data: Uses a 3V lithium battery with a 10-year life, operates on 868 MHz frequency, and uses Wireless M-bus protocol.
Protective Data: Protection class III, housing type IP 43, operates under specific conditions.
Norms and Standards: Complies with DIN EN 834 and EU standards, environmental declarations available.
Material and Dimensions: Dimensions are 40 x 102 x 31 mm, sensor cable length 2.5 m, weight 58 g, housing made of PC-ABS.

Application The electronic heat cost allocators WHE5.. and WHE6.. are designed for decentralized installation and used when heating costs must be allocated to several consumers based on actual consumption. The temperatures are acquired by one (radiator) or two sensors (radiator and room temperature sensor). In two-sensor mode, the actual temperature difference between room temperature and radiator temperature is acquired, while in onesensor mode, a constant value for the room temperature is predefined. These measured values are used as the basis for calculating consumption. Main area of application...

Depending on the type of communication, the heat cost allocators are classified as follows: • No communication interface • With optical communication interface (optional) • With RF interface No communication interface Heat cost allocators without communication interface WHE50.. must be read visually on site and the measuring results must be manually recorded. They are especially suited for systems that do not require complex data evaluations or particularly fast readout processes. With optical communication interface The heat cost allocator with optical communication interface can be read on...

Function control The heat cost allocator performs a self-test every 4 minutes. An error message "Err x" is displayed if the error lasts for 5 consecutive measuring cycles (20 minutes). After the error has been registered and shown on the display, the device stops measuring. The date the error occurred is stored internally. Display device type Device states, consumption values and measuring system information are displayed in a loop. Siemens Building Technologies

Continuous counting (without zeroing) The meter status is not "zeroed" at the due date, but continues to count like a roller type counter. As a default, this option is set to "No" (counter reading will be reset to "0" at the due date) Display battery warning The heat cost allocator features service life monitoring. An optical message "bat00" is shown on the display if the battery service life has expired Display meter readings in case of errors The units accumulated until the heat cost allocator fails will be displayed on the heat cost allocator as a counter reading. The option is set to "No"...
