KNX Secure successor to Cala KNX T 101

News of 13 November 2025

New model Cala 101 T KNX sec

Cala 101 T KNX sec is the successor to the previous room temperature controller Cala KNX T 101 from the Cala series. The integration of KNX Secure is based on current developments in the KNX environment and expands the technical possibilities of the application. At the same time, the device remains unchanged in terms of appearance and installation, which makes it easier to replace in ongoing projects.

The models are initially available for 55 mm switch frames. Variants for the Swiss 60 mm system will follow shortly.

Further information can be found in our Excel price list and in the extended product data table. Remaining stocks of the previous models can still be ordered while supplies last.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our sales team.
