Heating Current Monitoring
Current Measurement
Heating current is acquired with an external transformer. Compatible with R2400 with GTZ 4121 for alternating and 3-phase
current.
Function
An alarm is triggered if the current setpoint is fallen short of by more than 20% with activated heat (control output active), or
if current is not “off” when the heat is switched off. The alarm is not triggered until heating current is high enough when the
switching output for heating is active, and when current drops to zero when the switching output for heating is inactive.
Monitoring is only active if discontinuous heating has been selected in the configuration, and not in the case of continuous
and step-action controllers.
Threshold
The default monitoring threshold is 20%.
AMPS
current setpoint
Heater phase current is entered for this parameter.
AMPS
can be set to
Auto
for automatic adjustment with the heater
switched on. The measured current value is saved to memory.
Activation
Parameter
AMPS
not set to
oFF
