Snow/Ice Melt All-In-One Control Unit, 2 Zone control, ground and roof, 115/230VAC, 60 amps 2x30amps

Snow Melting systems operate best when they are connected to automatic controls and you save money because the control activates your system only when needed and then shuts off automatically.

The DS5C sensor-controller detects the combination of precipitation PLUS low temperature to activate the ProMelt Mats or Cables. It is meant to be pole-mounted open to the sky and elements with a fixed moisture sensor mounted on its top.

DS5C automatically controls 60 Amps(2x30) of snow melting – approximately 145 Sq Ft of 50 Watts/SF at 240v 30 Amp Maximum.

The DS-5C offers automatic activation, rain/snow detection, adjustable trigger temperature, and a drying cycle, as well as manual operation. It is a stand-alone control (no CP Contactor Panel required) intended for relatively small systems up to 60 Amps or approximately 290 Sq Ft at 50 Watts/SF.  The unit measures approximately 5"x7"x3".

We recommend adding the optional PM-DP remote ProMelt Display Panel for the easiest monitoring and control of your PM-2C sensor. The PM-DP wired remote is a great upgrade and is sold separately.
