Sesame Technologies EX Ice Detector Sensor Cover - IDC-EX

The Sesame EX Ice Detector Sensor Cover – IDC-EX is a specialized protective device engineered to shield fuselage-mounted ice detection sensors from damage, debris, and contamination while the aircraft is on the ground. Specifically designed for executive and regional aircraft platforms using Rosemount or similar-style ice detectors, this cover features a durable EX-grade shell and a non-marring interior that helps maintain the integrity of the sensor's surface and calibration. It is ideal for operators looking to reduce wear, improve ramp safety, and extend the service life of critical airframe components.

Key Features

• Form-fitted design ensures full coverage and secure placement on most standard fuselage-mounted ice detectors
• EX-grade polymer construction resists impacts, UV degradation, and harsh ramp environments
• Interior liner features non-melting, high-temp silicone padding to prevent scratching or distortion of sensor elements
• Integrated moisture drainage port prevents internal fogging or water accumulation
• Bright red NAS1756 “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT” warning streamer ensures high visibility during walkarounds
• Compatible with Sesame Safety Lanyard Systems for added security during use in windy or congested apron areas
