Electric Heaters
Heaters for 0.6 to 2.3-meter Antennas 120/220/230VAC
This snow shield heaters operate on 120VAC, 220VAC or 230VAC for that includes the heater element and the blower motor. The electric heaters will provide 1,200 Watts, 1,700 Watts, or 2,000 Watt of heat, depending on the size of the antenna and customer requirements. The heater unit utilizes brushless and maintenance free blower motors. The heater is controlled by the DS-4C automated heating system Moisture/Temperature sensor. The rack mounted DP-7SS Remote Monitor/Control Panel can be added to the DS-4C.
* UL and CE Certified
Heaters for 2.4 to 3.1-meter Antennas 120/220/230VAC
This snow shield heaters use 2 elements at 2,000 Watts each to provide 4,000 Watts of heat and utilizes brushless maintenance free blower motors. The electric heaters are controlled by the DS-4C automated heating system Moisture/Temperature sensor. The rack mounted DP-7SS Remote Monitor/ Control Panel can be added to the DS-4C. This heater requires a professionally installed electrical service.
* UL and CE Certified
Heaters for 3.2 to 6.3 meter Antennas 208/220/240/380/400VAC
Using the same concepts as the two smaller heaters, this snow shield heaters wattage ranges from a three element 6,000 Watt unit to a six element 12,000 Watt unit. The blower motors are brushless and maintenance free.
The electric heaters can be controlled by the Walton Thermostat Controller or the DS-6 Local Control Unit. The Rack mounted DP-7SS Remote Monitor/Control Panel can be added to the DS-6. This heater requires a professionally installed electrical service.
* UL and CE Certified
Gas Heaters
Walton Gas Heater for 3.2 to 6.3-meter Antenna
The Walton Gas Heater manufactured by W.B. Walton Enterprises are designed specifically for De-icing Satellite Communication Antennas. These heaters are designed to be suspended from the antenna mounting structure and to provide long reliable service for years to come.
Heat Source Flexibility – Natural Gas and Liquid Propane Gas Heaters are available.
Dual Hot Surface Ignition System
- Dual hot surface igniter's means redundancy in the ignition sequence.
- Large flame sensing rod. Turbulence no longer a factor during ignition sequence.
- Same reliable 3 try ignition sequence with purge time.
- No more pilot assembly or pilot orifice.
- Stainless Steel Burner greatly reducing maintenance costs and increases reliability.
Positive Blower Recognition for Ignition Sequence
- Normally open contact on air flow switch operates power to the ignition unit. No air flow, no ignition.
- If no airflow is verified, the ignition unit will not be energized and the unit will go into ignition failure mode.
Same Wiring and Mounting Configuration as Original Heaters
- Older Gas Heaters can be changed out with the new designed Gas Heating Units.
- Mounting and wiring is the same.
New Evolutions in Direct Fired Gas Heaters
Both Snow Shield Cover De-Icing Systems and the Gas Heaters for Plenum De-Icing now meet the European Union Declaration of Conformity for directives:
EN 60204-1:2006+A1:2009, EN 60529:1991+A1:2000/IEC 60529:1989+A11999 and
EN12669 (EN298:2003 EN126:2004 EN1854:2006)
EU Gas Appliance Directive Test Standards: 2009/142/EC (GAD)
EU Low Voltage Directive Test Standards: 2006/95EC
Environmental Tests: EN 60529:1991+A1:2000
W. B. Walton Enterprises, Inc. is currently applying for approvals from North American Agencies for our Gas Heating Units for both the Snow Shield Cover De-Icing System and the Plenum De-Icing Systems.
