INSTALLATION OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DiGr sPAN TMC Temperature Monitoring Control Temperature Range 30 to 250 F 35 to 120 C The TMC displays and monitors a system s temperature and provides an alarm light and output if the system temperature reaches a critical point The alarm condition can only be cleared by opening the locking enclosure and pressing the manual reset button The TMC is ideal for domestic hot water systems see pg 5 When the domestic water temperature rises above the selected set point the TMC will enter the alarm mode The TMC will control a Normally Closed solenoid valve In the alarm mode the solenoid valve will shut down the flow of hot water into the domestic system To open the solenoid valve and let the hot water back into the system two things must happen the domestic water temperature must fall below the critical point and the manual reset button must be pressed Other typical uses of the TMC include e Freeze condition alarms e Refrigeration system alarms e Hydronic heating systems high temperature alarms and control for solenoid valve to disable the heating system e Space temperature alarm systems In areas where power losses are common the TMC can be ordered with a battery backup This will prevent the need for manually resetting the system whenever there is a power failure The battery backup will keep the TMC active for approximately two hours and will recharge when power is restored The TMC
