Overview
Msa-1 Aerial Sensor
The MSP-1 in-ground sensor is encased within a rugged enclosure and is intended to be embedded within the surface being heated, usually concrete or asphalt. The MSP-1 is supplied with a protective field cover to simplify asphalt or concrete installations, and comes with 30' of wire for connection back to the MSC-1 control unit. The sensor has an integral ½” NPT conduit connection. The MSP-1 connection wire may be extended up to 500’ with an appropriately rated 18AWG 4 wire shielded stranded cable. The low voltage MSP-1 senses falling or drifting snow by melting it on the “grid” area of the sensor and then detecting the presence of moisture by measuring an electrical signal between the grid bars. The MSP-1 also measures the temperature of the surface. This “dual sensing” technique allows the MSC-1 to control the heating equipment (mats, cables, etc.) in the optimum manner possible. This assures minimum energy costs while still providing reliable surface snow detection.
