Temperature Display - TG-3

The Temperature Display - TG-3 is a watertight digital temperature monitoring instrument designed for use in high-temperature environments found on fire apparatus and emergency vehicles, including air fill stations, medical supply compartments, and other temperature-sensitive areas. The TG-3 provides three-zone temperature monitoring, allowing it to continuously track connected sensors and display temperature readings in either Fahrenheit or Celsius. This feature is essential for ensuring that critical systems within a vehicle remain within safe operating limits, particularly in environments where temperature fluctuations can impact performance or safety.

With the ability to set independent high- and low-temperature alarms for each connected sensor, the TG-3 offers precise control over temperature conditions. When an alarm condition is detected, the unit emits a built-in 85 dB audible alarm and flashes its LCD display to alert personnel. The LCD screen also features five selectable levels of backlighting, which enhance visibility in various lighting conditions. All setup information, calibration constants, and alarm settings are stored in nonvolatile memory, ensuring that configurations remain intact even after power cycles or system resets.

The TG-3 can be configured for either an external alarm output or standard NMEA 0183 serial data output through its screw terminal connection, providing flexibility in how temperature data is relayed to other systems. The waterproof face is designed to fit a standard 2.125-inch instrument opening, making it easy to integrate into existing vehicle setups. The unit also includes one remote temperature sensor with a 20-foot cable, allowing for extended monitoring capabilities in larger or more complex environments. Its watertight construction ensures reliable performance in the harsh conditions typical of emergency vehicles and industrial applications.
