Removable Pool Safety Fence
The Safety Turtle wireless gate alarm enhances the security of a safety fence. A gate alarm reinforces the weakest link of a pool or property fence, the gate latch, which is subject to mechanical deterioration and occupant and visitor interaction. Alarming occurs if a child succeeds in unlatching the gate, if the gate fails to re-latch after adult entry, or if a child wearing a Turtle wristband goes in the water.
Features The Safety Turtle wireless gate alarm offers many unique security and convenience features:
•It’s wireless, which allows you to decide where alarming occurs, within 250 ft. [75 m.] of gate. Other systems alarm only at the gate, where you may not hear it.
•The adult bypass switch on top of the unit means the Safety Turtle gate sensor never has to be disarmed. It provides an 11 second entry time so the alarm sounds on child entry but not on adult entry.
•Entry time can be extended by holding or repeatedly depressing the switch within 11 seconds.
•LED on sensor illuminates during bypass period. It also confirms battery is functioning.
•Alarm qualified to operate in weather year-round.
•The alarm volume can be reduced temporarily for testing.
•Replaceable sensor battery [included] lasts 30,000 entries.
•Simple sensor low battery test.
•The Safety Turtle system can be progressively expanded through the purchase of additional sensors(s) of the same color.
•By using different colors of Turtle, neighbors can enjoy the benefits of Safety Turtle without triggering each other’s alarms.
Child Immersion Alarm – A last layer of protection for children near water Safety Turtle provides continuous protection to the wearer. This continuous protection compares to water disturbance pool alarms which are deactivated (and reactivated) by whoever uses or cleans the pool or spa. This distinction is vital because toddler accidents often occur when a pool or spa area is left unsecured or when adults are in attendance.
A Safety Turtle personal alarm can also accompany a child on vacation or on visits to a boat, cottage or another pool, where unfamiliar surroundings and less security add risk.
