A8.3  Heat Trace Monitoring
The EJX with Heat trace monitoring function 
calculates the ange temperature by using the two 
temperature sensors built in the EJX. An analog 
alert is generated if the temperature reached to the 
preset level.
The ange temperature is based on the following 
parameters and calculation formula.
[Parameters]
Parameter name Explanation
CAP_TEMP_VAL (CT) Measured capsule 
temperature value
AMP_TEMP_VAL (AT) Measured amplier 
temperature value
FLG_TEMP_VAL (FT) Flange temperature value
(Calculated value)
FLG_TEMP_COEF (Cf) Coefcient to calculate ange 
temperature
FLG_TEMP_H_LIM Threshold to generate Flg 
Temp High Alarm
FLG_TEMP_L_LIM Threshold to generate Flg

[Calculation formula]
FLG_TEMP_VAL(FT) = CT + C
f
 × (CT - AT)
The FLG_TEMP_VAL (FT) is assigned to Process 
Value (PV) in the AI function block. If the ange 
temperature exceeds the value preset to the 
HI_LIM, LO_LIM, HI_HI_LIM, or LO_LO_LIM in the 
AI function block, an analog alert is generated.
NOTE
The ange temperature is calculated by the 
calculation formula assumed that the capsule 
part of EJX is heated up or kept warm by an 
electrical heater or steam. In the case of an 
atmosphere temperature or less, the difference 
of temperature of approximately 3 to 4°C 
may occur because the amplier temperature 
becomes higher than the capsule temperature.
