A8.2.2   Combination of Reference Result 
and Blockage Detection
An EJX differential pressure transmitter can detect 
four modes of impulse line blockage: both-sides, 
high-pressure side, low-pressure side, and/or 
single-side when all the reference values are 
properly measured.  However, the detectable alarm 
mode combination is limited when some of the 
reference values are invalid. The relation between 
the detectable blockage modes and reference value 
results are shown in the below gure.
NOTE
•  REFERENCE_FDP must be larger than the 
specied level shown in Table A8.3 (refer 
A8.2.6). No blockage can be detected when 
VALUE_FDP is not large enough.
•  The plausibility of blockage detection needs 
to be conrmed by blockage simulation test. 
The simulation test can be performed by 
the appropriate manifold operation (refer to 
A8.2.8).
