ICE DETECTOR

摘要

An ice detector 110 includes a pair of electrodes 122, 124 connected by a pair of leads 116, 118 to a control unit 120 which measures the impedance (or other parameters) between leads 116 and 118 to thereby sense and detect ice or other contaminants formed on top thereof. Electrodes 122, 124 are integrated into patch 134 and are comprised of a top layer 142 of conductive resin, a middle layer 144 of conductive cloth and a bottom layer 146 of conductive resin.
