Optional Aerial Sensor(MSA-1)
TheMSA-1sensordetectsfallingorblowingsnowcomingincontact
with the sensor grid, then sends a signal to the MSC-1 to energize
heating equipment(snow melting or de-icing cables, etc.). (The
TS-1temperaturesensorensuresthatheatingequipmentwillonly
be energized during  freezing  conditions.) Thesensor operates
on low voltage supplied by the MSC-1 control unit, has a built in
1/2" (12.70mm)  NPT conduit connection and includes 10'
(3.05mm)ofwireforconnectionbacktotheMSC-1.
TheMSA-1iswellsuitedformastmountingandcustompositioning.
Roundedfeaturesandneutralcolorallowsthesensortodiscreetly
blend into almost any environment.
TheMSA-1connection
wire may be extended
up to 500' (152.40m)
with an appropriately
rated18–20AWG3wire
unshielded cable.
Optional Gutter Sensor(MSG-1)
TheMSG-1detectsmoistureonroofsandingutters,
sending a signal to the MSC-1. Roof moisture
detectionismadewiththeuniquesensorwiredesign,
gutter moisture detection is made by the traditional
sensing grid. (The TS-1 temperature sensor ensures
thatheatingequipmentwillonlybeenergizedduring
freezingconditions.)Thecombinationroofandgutter
detectionsystemprovidesquickdetectionofpotentially
damaging roof and gutter icing conditions.
The sensor operates on low voltage provided by
the MSC-1 control unit and includes 10' (3.05m)
of wire, for connection back to the MSC-1, and
mounting hardware for attachment in the gutter. The
MSG-1connectionwiremaybeextendedupto500'
(152.40m)withanappropriatelyrated18–20AWG
3wireunshieldedcable.

Optional In-ground Sensor(MSP-1)
The MSP-1 in-ground sensor is encased within a rugged enclosure
and is intended to be embedded within the surface being heated.
The MSP-1 is supplied with a protective field cover to simplify
asphaltorconcreteinstallations,andcomeswith30'(9.14m)of
wire for connection back to the MSC-1 control unit. The sensor has
anintegral½"(12.70mm)NPTconduitconnection. The MSP-1
connectionwiremaybeextendedupto500'(152.40m)withan
appropriately rated 18–20 AWG 4 wire shielded or unshielded
cable.
The low voltage MSP-1 monitors the temperature of the surface
being heated and also senses falling or drifting snow. The control unit
canthendisabletheheatingequipment(heatingmats,cables,etc.)
whenthesurfacetemperaturerisesaboveabout41°F(5°C).The
resultofthisdualsensing(temperatureandsnow)technologyisthe
optimum means of keeping snow melting costs to a minimum while
still providing reliable snow detection and melting capabilities.
