Example: K2 alarm value at 20 °C (+ delay time):
• In the closed-circuit principle, a cable break is detected if it occurs, and the output relay is
deactivated; the display turns red
– K1 (11/12) is closed
– K2 (21/22) is closed and relay output 33/34 is open on the 3RS29
• In the open-circuit principle, a cable break is detected if it occurs, and the output relay is
deactivated; the display turns red
– K1 (11/14) is closed
– K2 (21/24) is closed and relay output 33/34 is open on the 3RS29
