- Contacting to heatsealing band defective
PEX-W2/W3 current transformer
signal interrupted
- I
R
measuring wire from current transformer interrupted
Primary circuit interrupted
- Wire break, triac in controller defective
- Primary winding of impulse transformer interrupted
Secondary circuit interrupted
before U
R
pickoff point
- Wire break
- Secondary winding of impulse transformer interrupted
U
R
signal missing
- Measuring wire interrupted
Partial short-circuit (delta R)
- Heatsealing band partially bypassed by conducting part
(clamp, opposite heatsealing bar etc.)
Parallel circuit interrupted
- Wire break, heatsealing band break
- Contacting to heatsealing band defective
Total short-circuit
- Heatsealing band installed incorrectly, insulation at heat-
sealing bar ends missing or incorrectly installed
- Conducting part bypasses heatsealing band completely
U
