Snow Detector & Melting Control 661
The tekmar Snow Detector & Melting Control 661 is a microprocessor-based control which
activates a snow/ice melting system based on signals received from a Snow/Ice Sensor 090
and an Outdoor Sensor 070. When the control is in melting mode, the slab is maintained at a
“Melting” temperature through an on/off output which operates a contactor for electric cables,
a boiler, an injection pump or an injection valve. When the control is not in melting mode, the
melt system can either be shut down or it can be maintained at an idle temperature for faster
response and improved safety. If a fault occurs in a sensor or its wiring, the control activates
a Warning contact.
