HBX SNO-0550 SNOW MELT CONTROLLER
DESCRIPTION
The SNO-0550 is a stand-alone snowmelt control that utilizes a unique sensor technology unmatched by any
other snowmelt control system on the market today. This control utilizes proprietary sensor technology to detect
falling snow. The snowmelt sensor uses a heater to melt the snow that lands on the sensor. The control then
measures actual snow fall rate.
The SNO-0550 consists of numerous exceptional features including settings for your snow fall intensity as well
as an adjustable ΔT. This distinctive design incorporates our user friendly programming features, while offering
applications and snow melt provisions over and above conventional slab sensing. With the ability to control
a system and an injection pump, or a floating action valve for mixing purposes, this value added stand-alone
control is suitable for single scale projects, or multi-zone projects that require individual optical sensors for each
melt zone.
The SNO-0550 can also be controlled remotely using your smartphone or tablet device with the free HBX
ThermoLinx App. The ThermoLinx App allows you to control your snow melt system with the ability to set snow fall
rates, adjust/monitor targets, set slab demands , and the ability to turn on/off your snow melt system anytime,
anywhere.

As seen here, based on a “Light” snowfall setting, you
can see the HBX sensor will turn on the snowmelt system
much later than a conventional sensor. This results in
huge savings each snow season if your system can turn
on later and turn off sooner.
