The TrolMaster MBS-SD is a dedicated smoke detector for the Hydro-X Environmental Control System, providing integrated smoke detection and immediate phone alerts through the TrolMaster notification system. It connects directly to the Hydro-X sensor network using plug-and-play RJ12 wiring, while its built-in photocell provides day/night awareness and an address button allows each detector to be individually identified. Up to five MBS-SD units can be connected to a single Hydro-X controller for coverage across multiple rooms or zones.
