Smart home central control unit Fibaro FGBS-222 — Z-Wave wired & wireless module with temperature sensor, 30 V input, 868.4–919.8 MHz

The Fibaro FGBS-222 Smart home central control unit is a compact interface module designed to integrate wired sensors and devices into a Z-Wave smart home network. It supports both wired and wireless connectivity and operates in the radio frequency range of 868.4–919.8 MHz with a transmission range up to 50 meters. The unit accepts an input voltage up to 30 V and includes a temperature sensing function capable of measuring from -55°C to 126°C, allowing it to monitor environmental conditions in a variety of installations.

Advantages

The FGBS-222 combines a small physical footprint (29 mm × 18 mm × 13 mm) with multi-protocol interfacing to connect dry contacts, analog sensors and external devices to a Z-Wave controller. Its broad operating temperature range for the temperature sensor and support for both wired inputs and radio communication make it suitable for retrofit and new-build applications where space is limited. The device’s compatibility with common home automation systems enables centralized monitoring and control through a single smart home platform.

Подходит для

• Integrating legacy wired sensors (contacts, reed switches) into a Z-Wave network
• Monitoring temperature in cabinets, basements, utility rooms or equipment enclosures
• Adding analog sensor inputs for custom automation scenarios
• Retrofit installations where compact size is required

Key specifications

• Radio frequency range: 868.4–919.8 MHz
• Maximum transmission range: up to 50 meters (typical indoor conditions)
• Dimensions: 29 mm × 18 mm × 13 mm
• Input voltage: up to 30 V
• Temperature sensor range: -55°C to 126°C

How to use

Install the FGBS-222 close to the devices or sensors to be monitored, ensuring access for wiring and that the selected location provides reliable radio communication to the Z-Wave controller. Connect the wired sensors or inputs according to the manufacturer’s wiring diagrams and verify power supply within the supported input voltage. Include the module into the Z-Wave network using the controller’s inclusion procedure, then configure the input types and parameters through the smart home interface to match the connected sensors.

Usage recommendations

Place the module inside an enclosure or mounting point that protects it from moisture and mechanical stress. For best radio performance, avoid dense metal enclosures or long distances and consider using an external repeater or additional Z-Wave devices to extend network coverage when needed.
