Temperature Sensing Function
When the Temperature Sensing Function is enabled and water is present in the
auxiliary drain the Model 5100ALBV will not activate the audible and visual alerts
if the ambient temperature is above 45° F. When water is present and the ambient
temperature falls below 45° F, the Model 5100ALBV will activate the audible and
visual alerts. The Temperature Sensing Function helps extend battery life and
eliminates unwanted alarm conditions when the threat of freezing is not present.
By default the Temperature Sensing Function is enabled when shipped,
meaning the alarm senses water only when the temperature is under 45° F.
See page 7 to disengage Temperature Sensing Function.
