DESCRIPTION
The snow switch model LCD-8 configurable aerial snow melting controller makes automatic snow melting a cost effective alternative in even the smallest applications. Heaters operate at temperatures below the set point, 38°F (3.3°C) default, only when required.

The LCD-8 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 LCD–8 controller operates from either an automatic selecting 100VAC – 240VAC or from 24VAC. These two voltage options combine with the configurable hold-on time and temperature set point to meet the need of a wide number of applications using just two part numbers.

It controlls heater loads up to 16 amps resistive or 3 amps inductive. The operating temperature range extends from -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C). The redesigned, patent pending, rugged polycarbonate enclosure provides excellent protection at temprature extremes, while allowing snow to shed to prevent iglooing over the moisture sensor.
