Okwu mmalite
The Snow Sensor 095 is an aerial-mounted sensor that detects falling snow and allows a tekmar® Snow Melting Control to automatically start the snow melting equipment. System stop is provided by the control’s timer or by manual disable. The 095 mounts to a nominal 1/2″ (16 mm) metal or PVC conduit or pole. The 095 is well suited for adding an automatic start to an existing snow melt system. For use with Tekmar Snow Melting Control type: 654, 670, 671, 680, or 681

Step 2 – Choosing a Location for the Sensor
The sensor should be installed outside on a nominal 1/2″ (16 mm) PVC or rigid metal conduit pole, either on a roof or to the side of the snow melting surface. The sensor must be located away from trees, building overhangs or other locations that may interfere with falling snow. Avoid installing in locations where the sensor may be vandalised. It is best to point the front face of the sensor in the direction of any prevailing wind.

Nzọụkwụ 3 - Na-agba ọsọ na Wiring
- Install a nominal 1/2″ (16 mm) PVC or metal conduit from the tekmar Snow Melting Control to the chosen sensor location. Pull 4 conductor 18 AWG wire from the sensor location to the control location through the conduit. The maximum wire length between the sensor and the control is 500’ (150 m).
- If using PVC conduit, do not run the wires parallel to telephone or power lines.
- If the sensor wires are located in an area with strong sources of electromagnetic noise, shielded cable or twisted pair should be used. If using shielded cable, one end of the shield wire should be connected to the Com terminal on the Snow Melting Control and the other end should remain free.
- The shield must not be connected to the earth ground.

7kwụ na XNUMXkwụ XNUMX - Wiring
Remove the wiring terminal block by pulling up from the blue sensor disk. Connect the 4-conductor wire to the yellow (YEL), blue (BLU), red (RED) and black (BLK) wiring terminations. If the installed 4-conductor cable uses a different colour code, then make a note of the wire colour versus the wiring terminal colour names. Push the wiring terminal plug onto the pins of the blue sensor disk. At the Snow Melting Control location, connect the corresponding wires to the yellow, blue, red and black wire terminations.
Nzọụkwụ 8 - Mgbakọ
- Align the blue sensor disk Tekmar logo with the highest point of the sensor enclosure body. The blue sensor disk has a notch that ensures the sensor is installed in the correct position.
- Insert the three screws into the holes and screw them until tight. Do not over-tighten.
- Align the three notches of the outer ring with the sensor body and push down until each of the three corners has snapped on tight.

- The yellow (YEL) and black (BLK) wiring terminals are used to measure a 10 kΩ sensor and use the Temperature vs. Resistance Table to calculate the approximate temperature reading. Measure the surface temperature of the 095 blue sensor disk and compare it to the yellow to black temperature readings.
- Measure the resistance between the blue (BLU) and black (BLK) wiring terminals. When the sensor surface is clean and dry, the reading should
be 2,000,000 Ohms. When the sensor surface is wet, it should be between 10,000 and 300,000 Ohms. - Measure the resistance between the red (RED) and black (BLK) wiring terminals. This reading should be between 45 to 47 Ohms.
