16.8.2 Setting the limits
If the switching condition MIN or MAX is selected in the scroll list func, the limit of the output has to be defined:
• Select the physical quantity to be used for the comparison in the scroll list Input. The following list items are available
for the alarm output R1:
– selected physical quantity
– signal amplitude
– sound speed of the fluid
• Press ENTER.
If the switching condition MAX is selected in the scroll list func:
• Enter the upper limit.
• Press ENTER.
The alarm will switch if the measured value exceeds the limit.
If the switching condition MIN is selected in the scroll list func:
• Enter the lower limit.
• Press ENTER.
The alarm will switch if the measured value falls below the limit.
If the switching condition QUANT. is selected in the scroll list func, the limit of the output has to be defined:
• Enter the limit of the totalizer.
• Press ENTER.
R1 Input\Mass Flow
R1 Input\Function: MAX\High Limit
R1 Input\Function: MIN\Low Limit
Example
High Limit: -10 kg/h
mass flow rate = -9.9 kg/h
the limit is exceeded, the alarm switches
mass flow rate = -11 kg/h
the limit is not exceeded, the alarm does not switch
Example
Low Limit: -10 kg/h
mass flow rate = -11 kg/h
the measured value is below the limit, the alarm switches
mass flow rate = -9.9 kg/h
the measured value is not below the limit, the alarm does not switch
