HIGH REGEN AIR TEMPERATURE ALARM
This indicator lights when the thermocouple below the regeneration heater assembly senses
an abnormally high temperature.
Note: Do not adjust the factory setpoint of 3CNTL, the
1
16
DIN panel-mounted
temperature controller inside the enclosure.
The regeneration heaters are shut-off until the temperature falls below the alarm point. The
regeneration blower will continue to run and cool the heaters and desiccant bed.
The alarm light will clear automatically when the temperature drops below the alarm point,
and the heaters will re-energize automatically.
LOW REGEN AIR TEMPERATURE
This indicator lights if the regeneration bleed temperature has not reached the factory setpoint
of 150°F within 30 minutes of the start of bed regeneration.
The panel meter (2CNTL) and the PLC monitor the regeneration bleed temperature.
This alarm is informational, and does not affect the regeneration process.
This alarm may indicate a very wet desiccant bed or, if the light does not go off within an
hour, malfunctioning or burnt out regeneration heaters. For more details on the regeneration
monitoring system, see Section 5-7.
