Demand Alarm Output Specifications (optional measuring function)
When the demand measurement value exceeds the set demand alarm point, an alarm is triggered.
Output signal
Open collector
Contact capacity
30 V DC, 200 mA
Set alarm range
1 to 1000 kW (during demand power measurement); 1 to 1000 A (during demand current measurement)
Alarm release function
Automatic release:When the measured value falls below the demand alarm point during alarm
output, the alarm is canceled.
Manual release:
Used to keep the alarm turned on or to cancel it by digital input or the
operation key, or via communication.
* The demand alarm mask time can be set for the PR300.
The demand alarm mask time is the time between the beginning of the demand period and the
set time, during which an alarm is not recognized.
Allowable range of set time: 1 minute to demand period
