CPI 1240 ADS

CPI 1240 Automatic Deicing System | Ethernet-Controlled Ice Protection

The CPI Model 1240 Automatic Deicing System is a next-generation electric deice solution for medium to large earth station antennas. Designed to protect reflectors, sub-reflectors, and feed windows from ice buildup, it features Ethernet-based monitoring, automatic ice detection, and staged heating control. With improved installation flexibility, reduced cable runs, and compatibility with CPI antenna control systems, the 1240 ADS ensures reliable RF performance in extreme weather environments.

Key Features:

Passband deicing for 4.8m to 16.4m CPI antennas (customizable for others)
Automatic and manual heating modes with smart ice detection
Web GUI and CLI for remote control via Ethernet
No rack-mounted controller needed—PCU mounts near antenna
IP66-rated outdoor housing with integrated heater
Compatible with CPI Model 950A Antenna Control System
Applications:

Earth station antennas in snow/ice-prone regions
