Using HB and HS Alarms Section 3-10
• The setting range is 0.1 to 49.9 A. Heater burnout and HS are not
detected when the set value is 0.0 or 50.0.
When the set value is 0.0, the heater burnout alarm is always OFF, and
the HS alarm is always ON.
When the set value is 50.0, the heater burnout alarm is always ON, and
the HS alarm is always OFF.
• Set the total current value for normal heater operation to 50 A or less.
When a current value of 55.0 A is exceeded, ffff is displayed in the
“heater current 1 value monitor” and “leakage current 1 monitor” parame-
ters.
3-10-4 Application Examples
Single-phase Heaters Example: Using a 200-VAC, 1-kW Heater
The heater power supply provides 5 A when the current is normal, and 0 A
when there is a burnout, so the heater burnout detection current is calculated
as follows:
Example: Using Three 200-VAC, 1-kW Heaters
The heater power supply provides 15 A when the current is normal, and 10 A
when there is a burnout, so the heater burnout detection current is calculated
as follows:
