E5@C-T Digital Temperature Controllers User’s Manual (H185)
• Detection is not possible if a fault occurs that causes a decrease in temperature while control is
being applied to decrease the temperature (e.g., a heater burnout fault).
z Parameters Related to Loop Burnout Alarms
• A loop burnout alarm can be output by setting the alarm 1 type to 12 (LBA).
• A setting of 12 (LBA) can be set for alarms 2 to 4, but the setting will be disabled.
• Loop burnouts are not detected during autotuning or manual operation.
• If the Reset Operation parameter is set to stop control, loop burnout alarms are not detected
during reset or standby status.
• If the alarm 1 latch is set to ON, the latch will be effective for the loop burnout alarm.
z Automatically Setting the LBA Detection Time
• The LBA detection time is automatically set by auto-tuning.
(It is not set automatically, however, for heating/cooling control.)
• If the optimum LBA detection time is not obtained by auto-tuning, set the LBA Detection Time
parameter (Advanced Function Setting Level).
z Determining the LBA Detection Time
• To manually set the LBA detection time, set the LBA Detection Time parameter to twice the LBA
reference time given below.
(1) Set the output to the maximum value.
(2) Measure the time required for the width of change in the input to reach the LBA band.
(3) Set the LBA Detection Time parameter to two times the measured time.
