Ice detectors
Currently all A330/A340 aircraft - for the A320 family it is optional - are equipped with an ice detector pair, manufactured by Rosemount Aerospace (now BFGoodrich). These detectors form the essential part of the Dual Advisory Ice Detection System. The detectors are designed to measure ice accretion on the sensor probes.
The two ice probe type detectors are symmetrically installed in the front fuselage section, about 30 cm in front of the nose landing gear bay. Each sensor is mounted into a hole of approximately 80 mm in diameter, with 6 flush fasteners. The detector itself has an airfoil-shaped part standing out into the airflow for about 40 mm, with an additional cylindrical probe of 25,4 mm length and 6,35 mm in diameter. The airfoil makes it possible for the probe to perpendicularly stick out into the airflow beyond the boundary. The probes are also provided with a heating device to de-ice the probe. This is used to determine the severity of icing. The sensor can detect the presence of icing conditions and also approximate their ending.

Ice Detection Principle
The cylindrical probe, a tube of a nickel alloy, is oscillating axially driven by magnetostrictive (*) forces with a frequency of approximately 40 kHz. This is the resonant frequency of the probe, which is measured as the system feedback. If there is ice accreted to the tube, the mass of the probe is changed and therefore its resonant frequency decreases. After heating the probe, a new ice accretion is possible.
