Eberle Temperature and Moisture Sensors
The Eberle temperature and moisture sensor is the component that decides when a snow melting or de-icing system runs.

Eberle DIN-rail thermostats are control units that manage snow and ice melting and frost protection heating automatically. They evaluate the signals from the temperature and moisture sensors together: heating runs only while the air temperature is within the range you have set and there is genuine precipitation or meltwater on the surface. This way the heating element does not waste electricity in dry cold or in mild rain. From this page you can choose the thermostat on its own, or a ready-made roof or ground set with the sensors supplied in the box.
An Eberle DIN-rail thermostat does not behave like a simple time switch but like a control unit that looks for two conditions at once. The unit needs two pieces of information. The temperature sensor reports whether the air or surface temperature is within the range you have set; the moisture sensor detects whether there is precipitation or meltwater on the surface. When the temperature condition is met the moisture sensor goes into standby, heating comes on the moment wetness is registered, and it does not switch off until the moisture signal ends or the temperature leaves the set range. The run-on time after heating can be fixed manually, operating hours can be read from the counter, and status can be signalled externally through the volt-free signal terminal.
Sensors are not supplied in the box. Choose this model if you want to select the temperature and moisture sensors to suit your application separately, or if you already have compatible sensors. It is sufficient for a single ramp, gutter run or open area.
For example a garage ramp on one side and a roof gutter on the other. Each zone has its own sensor set and its own operating threshold; one can run while the other stays off. For those who want a single unit instead of two separate thermostats.
The box contains a TFD 524 004 roof surface temperature sensor and an ESD 524 003 roof moisture sensor. For those who want to automate gutter, valley and eaves heating without selecting components piece by piece.
The box contains a TFF 524 002 ground surface temperature sensor and an ESF 524 001 ground moisture sensor. For circuits embedded in concrete such as ramps, courtyards and garage entrances; the sensors are positioned during the pour.

Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrical technician with the supply isolated. The Eberle DIN-rail thermostat clips onto the DIN rail in your panel; the supply and heating output are wired to the terminals. Sensor cables must be routed separately from power cables — long parallel runs in the same trunking can introduce interference into the measurement. The DR and FF sets are protection class IP20; the unit must remain inside a closed panel, in a dry environment that does not freeze.
All Eberle DIN-rail thermostat models carry a 2-year manufacturer warranty. The warranty covers faults arising from manufacture and materials; installation-related damage such as incorrect wiring, overloading, a crushed sensor cable or a panel exposed to water is excluded. Our technical support team is available Monday–Saturday 09:00–17:00. You can also consult us before ordering on model selection, sensor compatibility, whether a contactor is required and sensor positioning. The warranty starts automatically with the invoice and needs no separate registration; full conditions are on the SafeMax Warranty Programme page.
The Eberle temperature and moisture sensor is the component that decides when a snow melting or de-icing system runs.
A heat trace junction box is the point, exposed to outdoor conditions, where the heating cable is connected to the supply.
Self-regulating heating cables are cut to length on site.
A heating control panel starts and stops the heating cable automatically according to weather and surface conditions.
