Snow Melting Slab Sensor Kit (ETOG-56 Sensor + Housing)
Snow Melting Sensors Description
This sensor kit includes a ground sensor and a sensor tube. The sensor tube functions as a housing, which allows for the ground sensor to be more easily replaced than if it was directly embedded in the outdoor surface. This kit is compatible with the SCE-120 Snow Melting Economy Control. The ground sensor, type ETOG-56, is designed for embedding in the outdoor surface using the ETOK-1 sensor tube. The ground sensor detects both temperature and moisture.
The sensor tube, type ETOK-1, is a mounting tube for ETOG-56, supplied with a wood plug for covering the ETOK-1 hole during installation.
Two ETOG-56 ground sensors can be connected to the SCE-120 Controller to keep large areas ice-free, even if they are exposed to a range of different conditions. Where an asphalt surface is used, or where easy installation is desired, installing ETOG-56 together with ETOK-1 is the obvious choice.
Cannot be used as a replacement for ETOG-55.

It depends on how the system is intended to operate. If the expectation is manual operation (ex. WiFi or Timer Control), then no sensors are required. If the expectation is automatic operation, then the system will require at least one snow sensor.
No, a sensor is not required with the snow melt system. However, certain automatic controllers require a temperature/moisture sensor to sense atmospheric conditions and may also require an in-slab, high temperature limit sensor to be installed (notably, asphalt installations).
