Abstract
An alarm signal device sounded by a self-contained power source is activated responsive to a variance of temperature within a refrigerator or freezer beyond set limits. A timing circuit in the form of an integrated circuit causes the alarm to sound or flash intermittently for periods of extremely short duration compared to the relatively long periods between warning signals, thus extending the life of the alarm power source.
