Alarm Configuration

Example

These examples apply to units with catalog numbers 1420-V1P and 1420-V2P.

This example describes an alarm when a measured real power value exceeds a

programmed threshold. For example, when 300 kW are exceeded, the alarm

occurs and the load controlled by the relay output is disconnected.

An ‘UP’ alarm is selected. The recommended programming is listed below:

ENABLE: YES
VARIABLES: W system (W·)
SET POINT 1: 300 kW
SET POINT 2: 295 kW
ON DELAY: set the desired number of seconds, for example 5 seconds

To program a ‘DOWN’ alarm, configure SET POINT 1 to be a lower value than

SET POINT 2.

IMPORTANT

The PowerMonitor 500 unit is not intended to be applied as a protective device.
