FIGURE 1. APS–3C Dimensional
INTRODUCTION
The APS-3C Series Snow Switch Control, when used with
compatible ETI ,sensors, automatically control snow and ice
melting systems, ensuring complete melting for minimal
operating costs.Typical applications are pavement, sidewalk,
loading dock, roof, gutter, and down spouts.
APS–3C Controller improvesupon and extendsthe features of
previous models while maintaining backwards compatibility.
The new APS 3C model is interchangeable with earlier APS
models to ensure the continued long life of existing systems.
The APS–3C is available for 120 and 208–240 VAC and is
optimized for inductive loads up to 24 amps, ideal for use in
hydronic or steam systems in apilot duty configuration or with
customer systems that provide arelay interface.
APS-3C models provides arelay dry contact closure interface
for use with aBMS (Building Management System) .This
feature can be used for general purpose remote control,
annunciation of alarms and other advanced applications.
The APS 3C can also be controller remotely by aRCU–3
Remote Control Unit.
All sensor and communications wiring is NEC Class 2. This
simplifies installation while enhancing fire and shock safety.
WARNING:Do not over-tighten the Class 2terminal block
screw as this can result in an open/intermittent connection.
The APS–3C can interface with up to six sensors from the ETI
snow sensor line of products. More sensors provide superior
performance by better matching the controller to site
performance requirements.
SNOW/ICE CONTROLS INSTALLATION MANUAL | PART NO. 25680 REV 0.0
South Bend, Indiana USA |networketi.com 4
ENVIRONMENTAL INTERFACES
The APS-3C determines when to start heater operation
by monitoring the signals produced by up to six ETI
sensors, paralleled together using a 3-wire bus.All
sensors are Class 2low voltage for safety reasons.
Available sensors include:
•SIT–6E Pavement Mounted Snow and Ice Sensor
•SNOW OWL Aerial Snow and Ice Sensor
•GIT–1 Gutter Snow and Ice Sensor
When used either alone or in combination, these sensors
accurately determine whether snow and ice melting is
required.If snow and/or ice is present, these sensors will
provide the signal required to control your snowmelt
system.
Sensors measure ambient temperature and detect
moisture in any form.Snow, sleet, freezing rain, etc., is
assumed if moisture is present at temperatures below 38°F
(3.33°C).Beginning heater operation at temperatures
slightly above freezing is essential to meeting customer
expectations.It takes along time for snow to melt at 34°F.
Using severalsensors improvessnow melting effectiveness
by compensating for environmental variations.Consider a
typical pavement snow and ice melting system.Vehicular
and pedestrian traffic in commercial environments often
expose the pavement to tracked slush and blowing or
drifting snow.Because refreezing could create a
hazardous situation, these hazards must be cleared.The
solution is to combine several SIT–6E Pavement Mounted
Snow and Ice Sensors in expected pedestrian and
vehicular pathways ,along with aSNOW OWL Aerial
Snow and Ice Sensor placed high in an open ,
unobstructed location, exposed to falling snow.One or
more additional SIT –6E sensors might be needed in
areas subject to drifting and blowing snow and/or melt
water run-off and refreezing.
The first sensor detecting freezing precipitation calls for
snow melting.The last sensor detecting frozen
precipitation signals the APS Control Panel that
precipitation has stopped.
Sensors employ aheated interdigitated grid for moisture
detection.Heat melts frozen precipitation to form water
which is abetter conductor of electricity.Circuits detect
water as achange in resistance between the fingers of
the interdigitated grid.The temperature of the moisture
sensor is regulated electronically.
Each sensor has its own microcontroller for signal
processing, logic and control.This enables the use of a
simple 3-wire bus to connect sensors with the Control
Panel.Extension wire function and colors follow:
•Supply (Red)
•Signal (White)
•Ground (Black)
Sensors are wired together in parallel in a“wired OR”
configuration.That is, red to red, white to white, and black
to black.When several sensors are connected in parallel,
any sensor asserting aground on the signal conductor
enables snow melting heater operation.No ground on
the signal line indicates the absence of snow.
The APS-3C Controller includesatemperature sensor for
measuring pavement slab or ambient air temperature.Its
signal is used to provide an adjustable high limit
thermostat function.This sensor, or abypass resistor, is
required for proper system operation.This feature is
essential when using apotentially high temperature
heater such as MI cable.
HIGH LIMIT THERMOSTAT
The calibrated 40°F to 90°F (4°C to 32°C) high limit
thermostat prevents excessive temperatures when using
constant wattage and MI heaters.It also permits safe
testing at outdoor temperatures too high for continuous
heater operation.The temperature sensor is included and
must be connected to the system for proper operation.
There are two DIP switch configurable operation modes
for the high limit thermostat.See figure 6 . The factory
default operation mode uses the high limit thermostat as
aslab temperature regulator, preventing heater
operation at temperatures
SNOW/ICE CONTROLS INSTALLATION MANUAL | PART NO. 25680 REV 0.0
above the High Temperature Limit setting. The optional
operating mode uses the high limit thermostat as an
ambient air sensor, preventing heater operation at
temperatures above the High Temperature Limit setting
until the temperature drops back to within the set limits.
The details of operation in each mode are as follows:
South Bend, Indiana USA |networketi.com 5
SLAB REGULATING THERMOSTAT MODE
•High temperature causes unit to turn off heaters, if
running, and to ignore any call for heater operation
from the panel, RCU, or BAS.
•High temperature continues any hold-on cycle that was
initiated before the high temperature condition.If the
slab temperature drops within limits during the hold-on
time, the heater will be turned back on.
•The Heater Cycle functions normally.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE THERMOSTAT MODE
•High temperature causes unit to turn off heaters, if
running, and to ignore any call for heater operation
from the panel, RCU, or BAS.
•High temperature cancels any Hold-On cycle that was
initiated before the high temperature condition.
•If the Heater Cycle switch is operated in ahigh
temperature condition, the heater(s) will be turned on
for amaximum of 30 seconds. A new Heater Cycle
cannot be initiated for another two minutes after that.
HOLD-ON TIME
The adjustable Hold-On Timer provides three functions
affecting heater operation.The Hold-On Timer is used to
continue heater operation, to manually operate heaters,
or to provide alimited heater cycle for testing.
During normal operation, the Hold-On Timer continues
heater operation for an adjustable time period of up to
10 hours after snow stops.The additional operating time
compensates for the fact that there may be insufficient
power to both melt the snow as it falls and evaporate the
resultant melt water.
After normal operation has ended, the Hold-On Timer
provides amethod for clearing tracked or drifting snow
that did not fall on asensor.This can be accomplished by
either increasing the Hold-On Time or by manually
toggling the heaters on for the Hold-On Time,
independent of environmental conditions.
Lastly, the Hold-On Timer provides amethod of safe heater
testing, that is independent of environmental conditions.
The high limit thermostat ensures that this is the case.In
ambient mode, at ambient temperatures above the high
limit, the manual Hold-On Time is reduced to 30 seconds.
In pavement mode, at pavement temperatures above the
High Temperature Limit, the heaters are disabled.
INITIAL SETTINGS
When first placing the system into service, the Hold-On
Time should be set to an initial value; 3 to 5hours is
suggested as astarting point.If the heaters turn off
before the snow is completely cleared and the melt
water evaporated, increase the Hold-On Time by an hour
or two.If the heaters operate for several hours after the
pavement is clear and dry, decrease the Hold-On Time
by an hour.Continue this process until satisfactory
performance is achieved.
The small amount of energy wasted by aslightly excessive
Hold-On Time is secondary to complete snow clearing
and melt water evaporation.Incomplete operation is
not desirable because this can result in re-freezing melt
water which creates aslippery ice film.
IF THE SYSTEM TURNS OFF TOO SOON
If the system turns off before the pavement is clear and
dry, toggle the heaters on using the Hold-On Time switch
on the front panel.Repeat as many times as is necessary
until the pavement is clear and dry.If the heaters remain
operating after the pavement is clear and dry, terminate
SNOW/ICE CONTROLS INSTALLATION MANUAL | PART NO. 25680 REV 0.0
the Hold-On cycle with the Hold-On Time switch.Normal
operation resumes if it starts snowing during the Hold-
On Time.
ENERGY MANAGEMENTCOMPUTER (EMC)INTERFACE
The APS-3C Controller interfaces with an BAS via relays.
Inputs from the BAS include Override On, which causes
heater operation, and Override Off, which inhibits heater
operation.These functions are independent of weather
conditions and the status of the Hold-On Timer.The
interface provides five system status contact closures for
the BAS including Supply, Snow, Heater, Alarm, and
Temperature Limit.
Absent signals from the BAS,the APS Control Panel
controls the heaters based on environmental conditions.
Automatic snow melting control is the default condition
of the system.
APS–3CFRONT PANEL
The APS–3C has indicators, adjustments, and aswitch for
local control of the snow melting system.Indicators
include LED lights for Supply, Snow, Heat, BAS,Temp
Limit, and GFEP (NOTE:Ground Fault Equipment
Protection is NOT available on the APS-3C even though
there is an indicator light for it.). Adjustments provided
allow for the calibrated adjustment of system Hold-On
Time from 0to 10 hours (or Off) and Temp Limit for the
High Temperature Limit adjustment with arange of 40°to
90°F (4° to 32°C).The Heater Cycle toggle switch allows
for the manual starting and stopping of aHeater Cycle.
Figure 2shows the APS–3Cfront panel layout.
FIGURE 2. APS–3C front panel detail
South Bend, Indiana USA |networketi.com 6
RCU–3 REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
FIGURE 5. RCU–3
The RCU–3 Remote Control Unit is used with the APS–3C.
It adds remote control and status display to the APS–3C
control at a location convenient to personnel capable of
observing snow melting system operation.
Snow ,slush ,or ice ,whether alone or in combination ,
must contact at least one sensor to start melting .Heater
operation continues until all sensors are dry.Depending
on the rate of fall ,snow density ,wind velocity ,power
density ,and other factors ,heater operation must continue for a
period of time after the last sensor dries off .Slush tracked by vehicle
and pedestrian traffic ,along with blowing and drifting snow, are
problems that are hard to predict.
La neige la neige fondante ou la glace seule ou en
combinaison doivent entrer en contact avec au moins un capteur pour
commencer àfondre le fonctionnement de L'appareil de chauffage se

SNOW/ICE CONTROLS INSTALLATION MANUAL | PART NO. 25680 REV 0.0
The cycle timer in the APS–3C begins when the last
sensor dries off and continues for an adjustable period of
up to 10 hours to keep the heaters operational until the
pavement is completely dry.Otherwise, residual water
could re-freeze and create ahazardous condition.
The RCU–3 provides a 2-, 4-, 6-, or 8-hour Cycle Time
adjustment that is independent of the APS–3C cycle
time.This allows treatment of the condition requiring an
additional heater cycle as the exception rather than the
rule in order to minimize energy use.
Operating the Heater Cycle switch operates heaters for
the Cycle Time which is normally set for 2hours.
Operating the Heater Cycle switch during the cycle time
stops the timer.If the pavement or ambient temperature
exceeds the APS–3C High Temperature Limit setting, the
heater duty cycle is reduced or disabled to prevent
overheating.Status indicators include Supply and Heat.These
perform the same functions as those on the APS–3C.
Figure 5shows the RCU–3 layout.

OPERATION
APS–3C
The snow melting system can be controlled and monitored
either locally from the APS–3C itself or from two remote
locations including:
•RCU–3Remote Control Unit
•BAS
LOCAL CONTROL FROM THE APS–3C
Indicators
•SUPPLY (green) shows that power is present.
•SUPPLY (green, blinking) means either the pavement
temperature sensor is missing from the system or is not
functioning.The pavement temperature sensor is
included and must be connected to pins 10 and 11 for
proper operation.
•SNOW (yellow) shows that there is asnow/ice signal
originating from at least one of the SNOW OWL,GIT–1,
and/or SIT–6E sensors attached to the system.
•HEAT (yellow) shows that there is acall for heat.This
happens during snow and for the Hold-On Time
thereafter or when the Heater Cycle switch is operated
•BAS (yellow) shows that the interfaced Building
Automation System is presently overriding local system
control.
•TEMP LIMIT (red) shows that either the pavement
temperature is above the set High Temperature Limit
and there is acall for heat or the ambient air temperature
is above the High Temperature Limit setting.The APS–
3C can be configured to monitor slab temperature or
ambient air temperature but not both.
Adjustments
The Hold-On Time adjustment sets the time that heaters
operate after snow stops. Doing this is necessary to
make certain the pavement dries before heating
ceases. This prevents refreezing. Try an initial setting of
3 to 5 hours. Increase, if necessary. Reduce with care as
energy savings are being traded for an increased
likelihood of refreezing.

•The High Temperature Limit adjustment sets the
maximum deicing temperature.
Switches
•The Heater Cycle switch momentarily toggled down
will start amanual Heater Cycle for the Hold-On Time
setting or restart the Heater Cycle if one was in progress.
Momentarily toggled up will cancel aHeater Cycle if
one is in progress.
REMOTE CONTROL FROM THE RCU–3
Indicators
•SUPPLY (green) shows that power is present.
•HEAT (yellow) shows that there is acall for heat.This
happens during snow and for the Hold-On Time
thereafter or when the heater cycle switch is operated.
Adjustments
•Cycle Time adjustment sets the time heaters will operate
when the Heater Cycle switch is momentarily depressed
at the RCU–3.
Switches
•Heater Cycle switch momentarily depressed will start a
manual Heater Cycle for the Cycle Time setting.
Momentarily depressed while heaters are being
operated by aHold-On Timer or during manual Heater
Cycle will end the Heater Cycle.Heater operation during
snow conditions cannot be canceled in this manner.
REMOTE CONTROL FROM THE EMC INTERFACE
The EMC interface is identical on all of the APS “C” Series
models.Please see the EMC section of this manual for
interface details.Figure 20 pg 12.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT COMPUTER (EMC)
INTERFACE
The APS “C” Series provides an EMC interface to
communicate with the EMC of building automation
systems. The EMC interface provides 10 mA dry
switch contacts for communicating status to the
EMC or starting or stopping the system from the
EMC. Refer to Figure 20 for EMC connections.
EMC INTERFACE OUTPUTS
•Output Common
•HEAT indicates that there is a call for heat. This
happens during snow and for the Hold-On Time
thereafter or when the heater cycle switch is
operated.
•SNOW indicates that there is a snow/ice signal
originating from at least one of the connected
SNOW OWL, GIT–1, and/or SIT–6E sensors
attached to the system.
•ALARM -Indicates ground fault alarm.
•SUPPLY indicates that power is present.
•TEMP LIMIT indicates that either the pavement
temperature is above the High Temperature Limit
setting and there is a call for heat, or the ambient
air temperature is above the High Temperature
Limit setting. An APS “C” Series Control Panel can
be configured to monitor slab temperature or
ambient air temperature but not both. See figure
20 pg 12.
EMC INTERFACE INPUTS
•OVERRIDE ON can be used to override an
attached APS “C” Series Control Panel in order to
turn heaters on. A normal contact closure will turn
on heaters until operation is cancelled. If the EMC
cycles the Override On relay on and off again
within more than 32 milliseconds, but less than
300 milliseconds, the attached APS “C” Series
Control Panel will begin a manual Heater Cycle
and run for the Hold-On Time setting. See figure
20 pg 12.
•OVERRIDE OFF can be used to override an
attached APS “C” Series Control Panel in order to
turn heaters off. A normal contact closure will
turn off heaters. If the EMC cycles the Override
Off relay on and off again within more than 32
milliseconds, but less than 300 milliseconds, the
attached APS “C” Series Control Panel will end a
manual Heater Cycle. If both override on and
Override off are closed (selected) the override off
will take precedence.

INSTALLATION
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
Configuring the High Limit Thermostat
Dip Switch pin 3 is used to set the high limit thermostat operation to one of two
possible operating modes:
•Off sets the high limit thermostat as a slab regulating temperature sensor.
•On sets the high limit thermostat as an ambient air sensor. Off is the factory default.
Figure 8shows how to configure the high limit thermostat mode at the DIP switch.
FACTORY USE ONLY
DIP switch pin 4 is for factory use only. The use of pin 4, except by authorized
personnel, may lead to improper operation of the APS–3C.
BYPASSING THE HIGH LIMIT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
If, for any reason, you need to operate the system without the High Temperature
Limit Sensor (for troubleshooting or while waiting for areplacement sensor), Figure
21 you can temporarily replace the sensor with a470Kresistor.The resistor will allow
the system to run as if the sensed temperature was 40°F (4.4°C).
Refer to Figure 22,for placement of resistor.
