Value Snow Melt Control Description
This configurable aerial snow melting controller makes automatic snow melting cost-effective in even the smallest applications. Heaters operate at temperatures below the default set point (38°F or 3.3°C) only when the sensor detects precipitation at temperatures below 38°F. Plus, the adjustable hold-on period (3 hours default) continues heater operation after snow stops to ensure complete melting. The SCV-DUAL controller includes an internal magnetic reed switch used for manual heater cycling, as well as configuring the temperature set point and the hold-on time. The controller operates from 100 to 240 VAC to work with a wide variety of applications. It also controls heater loads up to 16 amps.

Enter the configuration process (display) by holding the magnet next to the switch for 3 seconds, the green LED goes off. Remove the magnet.
The SCV will then pulse the green LED with the values of each Field in sequence, repeatedly:
- Field 1 (Hold-On) will pulse once for off, twice for 1 hour, three times(default) for 3 hours, and four times for 5 hours.
- Two second pause.
- Field 2 (Temp) will pulse once for no temp selected, twice for 36°F/2.2°C, three times(default) for 38°F/3.3°C, and four times for 40*F/4.4°C.
- Two second pause.
- Field 3 (Lockout) will pulse once(defaut) for disabled and twice for enabled.
- Four second pause.

The SCV-DUAL can switch loads under 16 amps in 120V and in 240V. A relay is not required for jobs this size. In jobs using less than 16 amps, the heaters can be wired directly to the control. For jobs over 16 amps, a relay panel is required, and the heaters would be connected to the panel/s instead of directly to the control.
GFEP is the National Electric Code (NEC) required protection for fixed outdoor deicing and snow-melting equipment, which may be accomplished by using circuit breakers equipped with ground-fault equipment protection (GFEP) of 30 mA. It is important to understand that this required equipment protection is NOT the same as a 5 mA GFCI used for personal protection.
