DESCRIPTION

The Snow Switch Model HSC-24, 24-volt Pavement-Mounted Snow 

and Ice Sensor reliably detects snow and ice conditions on pavement 

surfaces. The HSC-24 pavement sensor ensures that deicing heaters 

operate only while needed which minimizes energy costs without 

sacrificing snow melting effectiveness.

The HSC-24 is designed to be self-contained eliminating the need for 

an additional control panel, and it’s independent relay-contact output is 

compatible with most heater control systems.

As part of a snow melting system, the HSC–24 sensor will signal for snow 

and ice melting at pavement temperatures below 38°F (3.3°C) while 

moisture in any form—including water, snow, sleet or ice—is present.
