Prevent unauthorized adjustments and maintain precise climate control with the Robertshaw 190-068 Plastic Guard (BTG-UK). As a heavy-duty rectangular thermostat guard, this kit is engineered for high-traffic commercial environments where tampering can lead to significant energy waste and equipment strain. The transparent thermostat cover is constructed from high-impact plastic, allowing for clear visibility of settings while providing a rugged physical barrier against physical damage. This model features strategic air circulation ports on all four sides to ensure your sensor receives accurate ambient readings without thermal lag.

Installation is streamlined for field efficiency. The kit includes both solid and ring mounting bases, allowing technicians to secure the unit without disconnecting lead wires or removing the existing thermostat from the wall. The Robertshaw BTG-UK guard dimensions (8-1/4" L x 5" W x 3-1/2" D) provide ample clearance for most large-format commercial thermostats. Each unit comes equipped with a dependable eight-tumbler lock and a universal key, simplifying security management across multiple job sites or large facility installations.

Key Benefits:
  • Universal Compatibility: Fits most mid-to-large scale thermostats, including many Robertshaw, Honeywell, and Emerson models.
  • Non-Intrusive Installation: The included ring base eliminates the need for rewiring, saving time on the job site.
  • Vandalism Resistance: Robust locking thermostat cover prevents unauthorized setpoint changes in schools, offices, and retail spaces.
  • Optimized Airflow: Precision-molded ventilation slots ensure the thermostat maintains its factory calibration through consistent airflow.
  • High Visibility: The clear plastic housing allows for quick status checks without requiring the key to open the guard.

Will this guard cause my thermostat to read the wrong temperature?

Yes, the 190 series uses a universal key configuration, so you can manage all 190-068 units in a facility with a single key.
