CPI 1230 ADS

CPI 1230 Automatic Deicing System | Earth Station Antenna Heater

The CPI Model 1230 Automatic Deicing System (ADS) prevents ice buildup on large earth station antennas by providing staged electric heating for the main reflector, sub-reflector, and feed window. Designed for automatic or manual operation, the system includes a rugged Power Control Unit (PCU) with relay logic, a rack-mounted control unit, and a self-contained ice detector for precise activation. Ideal for harsh environments, it supports CPI antennas from 4.8m to 16.4m and is CE-compliant.

Electric deicing for reflector, sub-reflector, and feed
Operates in Auto or Manual mode with dry contact M&C
Relay-based PCU with NEMA 4 (IP66) housing
Energy-efficient staged heating to lower costs
Smart ice detector with adjustable parameters
Available for CPI antennas 4.8m–16.4m+
CE-compliant for EU installations
Applications:

Earth station antennas in freezing climates
SATCOM sites requiring automated ice mitigation
