The BTA combines both detection and activation for a single FirePro condensed aerosol generator. In case of a fire, once the temperature in the enclosure reaches the pre-selected detection rating (57°C, 68°C, 79°C, 93°C, 141°C, 182°C), the bulb will burst and mechanically activate the FirePro generator. The BTA operates without electricity.
