LBA ALARM (Loop Break Alarm)
This alarm identifies incorrect functioning of the control loop due to a possible load break or to a short circuited or
reversed probe.
With the alarm enabled (parameter AL.n), the instrument checks that in condition of maximum power delivered for
a settable time (Lb.t) greater than zero, the value of the process variable increases in heating or decreases in cooling: if this
does not happen, the LBA alarm trips. In these conditions, power is limited to value (Lb.P).
The alarm condition resets if the temperature increases in heating or decreases in cooling.
