The MSA-1 sensor detects falling or blowing snow coming
in contact with the sensor grid, then sends a signal to the
MSC-1 to energize heating equipment (snow melting or
de-icing cables, etc.). The sensor operates on low voltage supplied by the MSC-1 control unit and has a built in 1/2" NPT conduit connection and includes 10´ of wire for connection back to the MSC-1.
The MSA-1 is well suited for mast mounting and custom
positioning. Rounded features and neutral color allows
the sensor to discreetly blend into almost any environment.
The MSA-1 connection wire may be extended up to 500´
with an appropriately rated 18-20 AWG 3 wire unshielded
cable.
