-LCr
Alarm number
- Low Current
Used for partial load failure detection. To avoid nuisance
tripping due to supply voltage variations set to a value at
least 15% below the minimum normal operating current
-HCr
Alarm number
- High Current
Used for load overcurrent protection. To avoid nuisance
tripping due to supply voltage variations set to a value at
least 15% above the maximum normal operating current.
Note: This alarm is not intended to provide
instantaneous safety protection from short circuit fault
conditions
The following message is a diagnostic alarm which appears for mode 1 operation only.
LdF
Load Fail
This includes failure of the heater circuit or the SSR
The following two messages are diagnostic alarms produced as a result of failure within the
