Snow Melting Slab Sensor (Sensor Only) - ETOG-55 Type
Features
-
Detects Snow And Ice On Concrete Or Asphalt: Reliably detects snow and ice on concrete or asphalt when used in conjunction with the SCE-120 Economy Snow Melt Control, in particular, it detects moisture and temperature
-
Fastest Response: The SLAB-SS offers the fastest response time with the sensor in direct contact with the asphalt or concrete to be heated, sensor wire must remain separate from any high-voltage wire to avoid a distorted sensor signal
-
Mounts To The Snow-Melting Cable: The sensor mounts in close proximity to the snow-melting cable to ensure the pavement and sensor become dry at similar time intervals, maximum distance between the sensor and the control is 650 feet using 18 AWG wire

Snow Melting Sensors Description
This slab-mounted snow sensor reliably detects snow and ice on concrete or asphalt when used in conjunction with the SCE-120 Economy Snow Melt Control. This sensor works by detecting moisture and temperature. The sensor mounts in close proximity to the snow melting cable to ensure the pavement and sensor become dry at similar time intervals. Maximum distance between the sensor and the control is 650 feet using 18 AWG wire. Note: Sensor wire must remain separate from any high-voltage wire to avoid a distorted sensor signal. The sensor wire exits out the SIDE of the sensor. This sensor cannot be used as a replacement for ETOG-56, which has the sensor wire exit from the bottom/back.

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).
