Introduction

ThankyouforyourpurchaseoftheWinlandTemp˚Alert

® modelMTA1.YournewTemp˚Alert

® hasbeendesignedforreliablemonitoringofareaswherehigh

andlowtemperaturelimitsarecritical.Temp˚Alert

® measurestemperaturesfrom30˚to+100˚F(1˚to+38˚C).Thisunitwillseparatelyzoneouthighandlow

temperaturealarmsignals.Thisuniquefeatureenablesyoutoinstantlyidentifywhetheryourfacilitybeingmonitoredhasahighorlowtemperaturecondition.

Simplyselectanacceptabletemperaturerangebysettingtheadjustablehighandlowlimitstops.Iftemperatureinthemonitoredareaeitherrisesorfallstothe

limitstops,thetemperatureindicatorwillcontactoneofthelimitstops.Thiscompletesthecircuitandprovidesyouwithadrycontactalarmsignal.TheMTA1

contactsarenormallyopendrycontactsratedat50mAat12VDC.Thisoutputcanbeusedtoactivatealarmsystems,telephonedialers,orotherremote

Location

InspecifyingthelocationandnumberofTemp˚Alerts

® toinstallconsiderroomsize,effectivenessoftheventilationsystem,andcriticalmonitoringareas.Ifthe

buildingalreadyhasanenergymanagementsystem,aneasyruleofthumbtofollowistoinstallaTemp˚Alert

® neareachthermostat.Itshouldbemountedon

awallorotherverticalsurfaceintheareawheretemperatureistobemonitored.Makesureitiswellclearofwindows,doors,orheatsourcesthatcouldcause

Installation

Itemsneeded:

· Standardscrewdriver

· 5/16”wrenchornutdriver

Step#1–OpeningtheCase

Beginwiththedevicefacingyou.Turnthedevice90˚totherighttoexposetheleftendofthecase.Noticethattheleftendofthebaseplatehasbeentooled

withasingleattachmentholewhereastherightendhasnot. Graspthedevicewithyourrighthand,positionyourthumbonthecenteroftheleftendofthe

deviceabovetheseamwithyourremainingfingersontherightendofthedevice(SeeFigure1). Presshardwithyourthumbtodisengagethelatchingpin.

Separatethetwohalvesbypullingthedeviceawayfromthebaseplate.

Figure1

Step#2–AttachBasePlatetoMountingSurface

Afteryouhavedeterminedalocationforthedevicetobemounted,positionthebaseplateofthedeviceonthemountingsurfacewithyourhandandmarkthe

centerpointofthemountingholeswithapenorothermarkingdevice.Mountthebaseplatetothewallusingtheincludedmountingscrews.Dependingonthe

typeofsurfaceyouaremountingto,youmayneedtopredrillholestoacceptthemountingscrewsalone,ortheplasticanchorsandmountingscrews

Step#3–SelectingtheHighandLowSetPoints

Eachlimitpostiscontrolledbyalocknut.Usea5/16”nutdriverorwrenchtoloosen(turncounterclockwise)thehighandlowadjustmentposts(SeeFigure2).

Afterloosening,slidethepoststothepropertemperaturesetting.Oncethepostsareinthepropersettinglocations,simplyretightenthelocknuts(turn

clockwise).Avoidovertighteningofthelocknut.

Step#4–MakingtheWiringConnections

Tocompletetheinstallation,usethreeconductorstrandedorsolidwiretoconnecttheTemp˚Alert

® toacontrolpanel,dialer,etc. SeeFigure3foranexample

ofastandardinstallationthatutilizesdifferentiatednotificationoutputsforhighandlowtemperatureoccurrences.

Ifdesired,theHIlimitwireandLOWlimitwiremaybeconnectedtogetherunderasinglezone.Thisisusefulwheneveralimitednumberofopenzonesare

availableandyoudonotwishtodifferentiatebetweenahighandlowtemperaturenotification.

Diagramshownabovewillactivatezone1ifthehighlimitisexceededandzone2ifthelowlimitisexceeded

Figure3

Step#5–AttachFrontCovertoBasePlate

Graspthedevicewithyourrighthandby positioningyourthumbonthecenteroftheleftendofthedeviceabovethelockingpinandpositioningyourremaining

fingersontherightendofthecase(SeeFigure1). Aligntheretainingtabsontherightedgeofthecasewiththeholesonrightedgeofthebaseplatecurrently

attachedtothemountingsurface.Presshardwithyourthumbontheleftendofthedeviceandswingthedevicebacktowardthebaseplateuntilthedevice

seatsproperlyintothebaseplateandthelockingpinengages.

OperationandTestingProcedures

Forproperoperation,theTemp˚Alert

® mustbelocatedinanareawherethetemperaturerangeiswithin30˚to+100˚F(1˚to38˚C). Tomanuallyactivatethe

Temp˚Alert

® fortesting,loosenthelocknutofonelimitpostandslideittowardthetemperatureindicatoruntilitmakescontactandtemporarilytightenthe

locknutnut.Ifinstalledcorrectly,thistestprocedureshouldactivatethewarningdevicetowhichtheTemp˚Alert

® isconnected.Aftertesting,loosenthe

locknut,returnthelimitarmtoitoriginalsetpointandtightenthelocknut.Thesametestprocedureshouldalsoberepeatedwiththesecondlimitarmtoverify

properoperation.

Important:DonotusetheMTA1Temp˚Alert

® inacoolerorfreezer.Frostbuildupandmoisturecancausetheunittomalfunction.Forcooler&
