The MI-RHSE-S2I uses the same thermistor and microprocessor technology to provide an alarm when the rate of rise in temperature exceeds 10°C/ minute (typical) or if the temperature exceeds a threshold of 58°C (Response Class A1R). With the implementation of the Advanced Protocol, any model can be software configured to be either a fixed 58°, a fixed 78° unit or a 58° with rate of rise device.
