Tekmar Controls

The Snow Melting Control 654 is designed to operate electric or hydronic equipment to melt snow or ice from any surface including driveways, walkways, patios, business entrances, parking ramps, loading docks, hospital entrances, helipads or car wash bays. The surface temperature for snow melting is controlled automatically to reduce operating energy costs. The 654 has an automatic start and stop function when used with the Snow/Ice Sensor 090 or 094. Automatic start with a timed stop is available when used with the Snow Sensor 095. The 654 can operate a dedicated hydronic boiler or a mixing device. Isolation relays are required to operate line voltage pumps. Electric systems require a separate GFCI and electrical relay contactor.

The Snow/Ice Sensor 090 is an in ground sensor used with tekmar snow melting controls to automatically detect snow or ice on a driveway or walkway. The 090 has 65 ft (20 m) of wire. This product can be used in applications ranging from residential driveways to commercial building fronts such as emergency access entries. This sensor allows tekmar snow melting controls to automatically operate the snow/ice melt system only when snow or ice is present, while also providing slab temperature feedback to the control.

The Snow/Ice Sensor 094 is an in ground sensor used with tekmar snow melting controls to automatically detect snow or ice on a driveway or walkway. The 094 has 208 ft (64 m) of wire. This product can be used in applications ranging from residential driveways to commercial building fronts such as emergency access entries. This sensor allows tekmar snow melting controls to automatically operate the snow/ice melt system only when snow or ice is present, while also providing temperature feedback to the control.

The Snow Sensor 095 is an aerial mounted sensor that detects falling snow and allows a tekmar Snow Melting Control 653 and 654 to automatically start the snow melting equipment. System stop is provided by the control's timer or by manual disable. The Snow Sensor 095 mounts to a nominal 1/2" (16 mm) metal or PVC conduit or pole. The sensor is well suited to adding automatic start to an existing snow melt system.

The Snow Melting Control 680 is designed to operate electric or hydronic equipment to melt snow or ice from any surface including driveways, walkways, business entrances, parking ramps, loading docks, hospital entrances, helipads and car wash bays. The 680 communicates with Building Automation Systems using BACnet® or Modbus® for alert notification, remote monitoring and adjustment capability. It uses a tekmar Snow/Ice Sensor 090 or a Snow Sensor 095 to automatically detect snow or ice on the snow melting slab. Up to two snow/ice sensors can be installed, thereby increasing detection area and providing backup redundancy in the case of sensor failure. Upon detection of snow or ice, the 680 operates an electric heating cable, a single hydronic condensing or non-condensing boiler, or a steam valve to provide heat to the snow melt load. The 680 provides boiler return protection by operating a mixing valve or variable speed injection mixing. Monitoring of energy consumption is possible when it is connected to an optional flow sensor.

The Snow/Ice Sensor Socket 091 is designed to provide a mounting solution for the Snow/Ice Sensor 090 or 094. It is intended to be installed directly into a concrete slab when the slab is poured, so that the 090 or 094 can be installed into it once dry.
