14.4 Corrosion Display (CORROSION-DISPLAY)
The corrosion display indicates the corrosion rate measured by the corrosion transmitter. Although
this function is not used directly for control purposes, it provides useful system status information.
These modules
are explained
below.
Figure 47: CORROSION_DISPLAY
Acid Stop Limit (ASL)
If the corrosion rate exceeds the predefined value, the Acid Stop Limit ASL, the ASL alarm for this
Function is activated and the general alarm output is triggered. The ASL alarm is disabled again if the
process value is less than the ASL minus the ASL-hysteresis.
The ASL-Alarm can be used in combination with the controller modules PH_ACID_CAUS and
PH_ACID_OR_CAUS as additional failsafe for preventing overdosing of acids or bases. Hereby
both acid and caustic outputs (if existing) of the connected pH controller modules are set to "0" (shut
off), as long as the ASL-Alarm is active. If the system switch override for this module is configured and
becomes active (stand-by), the ASL alarm is disabled again.
Refer also to the description of the pH Controller Modules in chapter
14.5.1 and 14.5.2.
