W.B. Walton Enterprises designs
and manufactures a line of equipment that prevents the acccumulation of
snow and ice on satellite earth station antennas.
The company was founded in 1946
by William Walton, Sr. originally to do electrical contract work for companies
like Western Union, RCA and Comsat. In 1979, William Walton, Jr., present
President and Owner, took on the considerable challenge of fighting the
harsher elements of weather that affect satellite communications. Since
then, W.B. Walton has become the leading satellite company in providing
quality products protecting earth stations during poor weather conditions.
Early de-icing products designed
by W.B. Walton Enterprises include a behind the antenna heated system
for antennas ranging from 2.8 to 32 meters in size that are still sold
today. More recently, a line of de-icing products called the Snow Shield
was designed and manufactured for antennas ranging from 0.6 to 5 meters
in size using a PTFE Coated GORE-TEX© Fabric stretched
over the satellite antenna. This system can include automatic heating
and remote activation & monitoring.
With its vast experience and
customer-service orientation, W.B. Walton Enterprises is committed to
providing products of the best quality backed by superior customer service
and support.
