Mechanical Temp AlertŪ MTA-1
The professional looking MTA-1 Mechanical Temp Alert adds
reliable and economical temperature protection to your residential or
commercial security system. The design can be used anywhere the monitoring
of high and low temperature limits is critical. The unit allows you to
separately zone out high and low temperature alarm signals. Simply select
an acceptable temperature range by setting the adjustable high and low
limits from +32° to +100°F (0° to +38°C). If temperatures in the monitored
area rise above or fall below the set limits, the temperature indicator
contacts one of the preset limit arms providing a dry contact closure,
which can like a switch be used to turn on an existing alarm panel,
telephone communicator, or wireless alarm system. Important: Install a
Temp Alert on every level of your home or business to adequately protect
against freezing. Do not use for freezer or cooler monitoring. Instead use
a Digital Temp Alert unit with a remote sensor probe.
