The tekmar Snow Detector & Melting Control 661 is a microprocessor-based control which activates a snow/ice melting system based on signals received from a Snow/Ice Sensor 090 and an Outdoor Sensor 070. When the control is in melting mode, the slab is maintained at a “Melting” temperature through an on/off output which operates a contactor for electric cables, a boiler, an injection pump or an injection valve. When the control is not in melting mode, the melt system can either be shut down or it can be maintained at an idle temperature for faster response and improved safety. If a fault occurs in a sensor or its wiring, the control activates a Warning contact.

Input: Snow/Ice Sensor 090 installed with Sensor Socket 091 (Required)

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This control requires a Snow/Ice Sensor 090 and Sensor Socket 091. The Snow/Ice Sensor 090 is usually installed prior to the installation of the control. The installer or designer should plan far enough ahead to allow ample time for ordering and delivery. The Application Brochures A 661 provide a series of schematics which can be used with this control. It is important that these applications together with the sequence of operation provided below are fully understood in order to ensure that the control selected is compatible with its intended use.
Sequence of Operation 
Powering up the control
After the Snow Detector & Melting Control 661 is powered up, the red status lights and the LCD segments are turned on for 7 seconds. The control then displays the “OUTSIDE” temperature.
Melting Mode
Operation using a Snow/ Ice Sensor 090 - The control continually monitors the Snow/Ice Sensor 090. When snow, ice or water is detected the water light turns on. If the control is not in WWCO or CWCO (see below for an explanation of these terms), melting mode begins.
Operation using a Remote Enable - Melting mode can also be initiated if a remote enable signal is present (terminals Com Sen and Rem Sen shorted together) and the control is not in WWCO or CWCO. The remote enable is typically used with multiple Snow Melting Controls and Snow/Ice Sensors. It can also be used to manually turn the melting system on by wiring a switch between the remote terminals.
Once the control is in melting mode, the Pump and Melting lights and the Pump and Melt relays are turned on for at least the Minimum On Time set by the Min. On Time dial. The Heat relay is cycled on and off to maintain the slab surface at the “Melting” temperature. The method used to cycle the heat relay is called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). More information on PWM is provided in Essay 000.

Idling Mode
When the melting system starts from a cold temperature, the time required for the slab to reach "Melting" temperature can be excessive. To decrease this start up time, the slab can be maintained at an “Idling” temperature until melting is required. The Idling feature is also useful for preventing frost and light ice formation. When the control is in idling mode, control operation is similar to melting mode except the "Melting" light is off and the "Idling" light is on.

Warning
Warm Weather Cut Off (WWCO)
The 661 control can operate with or without an Outdoor Sensor 070. If an outdoor sensor is not used, the control measures the “Outdoor” temperature using the Edge Sensor on the Snow/Ice Sensor 090. If the “Slab” and “Outdoor” temperatures rise above the “Melting” temperature, the control shuts down the melting system and enters Warm Weather Cut Off mode. The control remains in WWCO until the “Outdoor” temperature drops below the “Melting” temperature. The control then continues with normal operation.

Water
Maintaining the slab at a “Melting” or “Idling” temperature in extremely cold weather can be expensive and may even be impossible. When it does snow at these colder temperatures, the snow is usually dry, light and less slippery. The control therefore turns the melting system off when the “Outdoor” temperature (measured using either the Outdoor Sensor 070 or the 090 Edge Sensor) drops below the “CWCO” setting. The heater in the Snow/Ice Sensor 090 is kept on during CWCO until the control detects snow. If snow is detected, the heater is turned off but the control retains the snow detected information. When the “Outdoor” temperature rises above the “CWCO” temperature, the control exits CWCO and continues with normal operation.

Warning Light and Relay
If a sensor fault occurs, the warning relay and light are turned on and an error message is given. The lookup table provided on page 7 can be used to determine which sensor has the fault.

Warning
Exercising the pump
To prevent the pump from seizing during long WWCO periods, the Pump relay is turned on for 20 seconds after every 3 days of no operation. During exercising, the LCD screen alternates between two special characters as illustrated in the diagram.

Installation
Caution
Improper installation and operation of this control could result in damage to the equipment and possibly even personal injury. It is your responsibility to ensure that this control is safely installed according to all applicable codes and standards. This electronic control is not intended for use as a primary limit control. Other controls that are intended and certified as safety limits must be placed into the control circuit.
Step One |
|
Getting ready |
|
||
|
Check the contents of this package. If any of the contents listed are missing or damaged, please refer to the Limited Warranty and Product Return Procedure on the back of this brochure and contact your wholesaler or tekmar sales agent for assistance.
Type 661 includes: •One Snow Detector & Melting Control 661 • One Outdoor Sensor 070
• One Data Brochure D 661 • Application Brochures A 661 • One Data Brochure D 001
Other information available: • Essay E 000 • Essay E 600
Read Application Brochures A 661 and select the correct Application for your job.
Note : This control must be installed with a Snow/Ice Sensor 090 and Socket 091. The Snow/Ice Sensor 090 and Socket 091 are not included with the type 661 and must be ordered separately.
Carefully read the details of the Sequence of Operation sections in all applicable brochures to ensure that you have chosen the proper control and you understand its functions within the operational requirements of your system.
Step Two |
|
Mounting of the base |
|
The control should be removed from its base by pressing down on the release clip in the wiring chamber and sliding upwards on the control. The base is then mounted in accordance with the instructions in the Data Brochure D 001.
Step Three |
|
Rough-in Wiring |
|
||
|
All electrical wiring terminates in the control base wiring chamber. It has standard 7/8" (22mm) knock-outs that accept common wiring hardware and conduit fittings. Before breaking out the knock-outs, check the wiring diagram and select those sections of the chamber with common voltages. Do not allow the wiring to cross over sections as safety dividers, installed later, prevent this.
Power should not be applied to any of the wires during the rough-in wiring stage.
•Install the Snow/Ice Sensor 090 according to the instructions in Data Brochure D 090 and run the wiring back to the base.
•Run the wiring from other system components to the base.
•Run the wiring from the 120 V ac source to the base. Use a clean 120 V ac power source to ensure proper operation.
•Multi-strand 16 AWG wire is recommended for the 120 V ac wiring due to its superior flexibility and ease of installation into the terminal sockets.

Melt Output
•Connect the melting system circuit to terminals Melt (1 and 2). These terminals lead to an unpowered (dry) relay contact inside the control which closes when the control is in melting mode. The most common devices to be turned on (enabled) by the 661 are pumps, heating devices or other tekmar controls.
