(B) Judging the possibility of one-side clogging diagnosis
Judgment criteria
•   The maximum value in either the one-side clogging simulation state 
on the high pressure or low pressure side is smaller than the minimum 
value under normal operating conditions.
•   The difference between the minimum under normal operating 
conditions and the maximum with simulated clogging is equivalent 
to or larger than the difference between the minimum and maximum 
under normal operating conditions.

(Case A)
•   With simulated one-side clogging, the minimum index value on 
either the high or low pressure side, or on both sides, is larger than the 
maximum value under normal operating conditions.
•   The difference between the index value under normal operating 
conditions and the index value with simulated clogging is equivalent 
to or larger than the difference between the minimum and maximum 
values under normal operating conditions.
The following diagram is an example of such case. There may be times
when the index value will increase no matter which one of them gets
clogged.

(Case B)
•   The above conditions are not satisfied.
Diagnosis is not 
possible or difficult.
If the diagnosis is judged to be possible, go to section A3-4-5 and set the diagnostic alarm.
If only the one-side diagnosis is judged to be not possible, go to section A3-4-7 and change the 
settings to enable easier detection of one-side clogging, or set only both-side clogging for the 
diagnosis target, and then set the diagnosis alarm as described in section A3-4-5.
