12.2 Displays and Measures to Take When Alarms are

Generated

12.2.1 What is an Alarm?

When an alarm is generated, the alarm indication blinks in the display to notify of the alarm (Figure 12.3).
Pressing the alarm indication displays a description of the alarm. Alarms include those shown in Table 12.2.

Types of Alarms and Reasons for Occurrence

Alarm

Type of alarm

Reason for occurrence

Alarm 1

Oxygen concentration alarm

concentration alarm

Occurs when a measured value exceed or falls below

the set alarm value (refer to Section 8.4, "Alarm Setting").

Alarm 6 Zero calibration coefficient alarm

Generated when the zero correction ratio is out of the

range of 100 ± 30% in automatic and semi-automatic

calibration (refer to Section 9.1.3, Compensation).

Alarm 7 Span calibration coefficient alarm

Generated when the span correction ratio is out of the

range of 0 ± 18% in automatic and semi-automatic

calibration (refer to Section 9.1.3, "Compensation").

Alarm 8 EMF stabilization time-up

Generated when the cell (sensor) voltage is not stabilized

even after the calibration time is up in automatic and

semi-automatic calibration.

Alarm 10 Cold junction temperature alarm

Occurs when an equipment internal temperature

exceeds 85°C.

Alarm 11 Thermocouple voltage alarm

Generated when thermocouple voltage exceeds 42.1 mV

(about 1020°C ) or falls below -5 mV (about -170°C).

Alarm 13 Battery low alarm

Internal battery needs replacement

If an alarm is generated, such measures as turning off the heater power are not carried out. The alarm is

released when the cause for the alarm is eliminated.
However, Alarm 10 and/or Alarm 11 may be generated at the same time as Error-2 (heater temperature error).
In such a case, the measure taken for this error has priority.
If the converter power is turned off after an alarm is generated and restarted before the cause of the alarm

has been eliminated, the alarm will be generated again.
However, Alarms 6, 7, and 8 (alarms related to calibration) are not generated unless calibration is executed.

12.2.2

Measures Taken When Alarms are Generated

12.2.2.1

Alarm 1: Oxygen Concentration Alarm

This alarm is generated when a measured value exceeds an alarm set point or falls below it. For

details on the oxygen concentration alarm, see Section 8.4, “Setting Oxygen Concentration Alarms,”

in the chapter on operation.

12.2.2.2

Alarm 6: Zero Calibration Coefficient Alarm

In calibration, this alarm is generated when the zero correction ratio is out of the range of 100 ± 30%

(refer to Section 9.1.3, “Compensation”). The following can be considered the causes for this:

(1) The zero gas oxygen concentration does not agree with the value of the zero gas concentration

set (refer to Section 9.2.1,“Calibration Setup.)” Otherwise, the span gas is used as the zero gas.

(2) The zero gas flow is out of the specified flow (600 ± 60 ml/min).

(3) The sensor assembly is damaged and so cell voltage is not normal.
