B.10 Alarms
Setting the Deadband
After entering the trip point, enter a “deadband” value. The deadband is the area between
alarm “turn on” and “turn off.”
Note:
Rainfall and Flow Rate of Change alarms are High Set Point conditions; they take no
deadband, and they are time dependent.
The purpose of setting a deadband is to eliminate alarm relay chatter which may occur if
the turn-on and turn-off values are too close together. Small fluctuations that occur when
the reading is at or near the trip point can toggle an alarm relay on and off very rapidly.
Note:
ou must log rainfall to use an alarm on a rainfall condition; likewise, you must log flow in order
to implement an alarm on a flow rate of change. If you forget, you are reminded when the program
begins.
In the pH example (
), the deadband is set to 0.10 pH. When the pH reached 6.9
(lower dashed line), the alarm tripped, but the alarm did not turn off until the pH came
back up to 7.00. This difference is the deadband setting which should be set to the
characteristics of each measured item.
Four alarm relays are provided with SPDT (Form C) contacts. The normally open,
normally closed, and common contacts are on the terminal wiring board.
Multiple alarms can be enabled one at a time. Multiple alarms can be assigned to
individual trouble conditions, to individual relays, or assigned to all the same relay.
