With falling temperature the frost protector generates a rising output signal from 0–10 V.
If the temperature continues to fall, a limiter
contact (single-pole changeover contact) is
actuated.
If the output signal of the controller (Y signal) is looped through the frost protector, a maximum selection of the two signals takes place. If the Y signal from the controller is greater than the output signal
of the frost protector, the controller determines the position of the heating valve (normal operation). If
the output signal of the frost protector is greater than the Y signal of the controller (risk of frost), then
ost protector determines the position of the heating valve, as long as “risk of frost” is signalled by
the fr
the sensor. When there is no longer any risk of frost, the controller automatically resumes control of
the heating valve.
nal priority selection is therefore not required. The sensor acting over the entire length is self-

monitoring, i.e. in the event of breakage or damage to the capillary tube, “risk of frost” is signalled.
If the signal of the controller is not looped through, the FTS outputs the signal of the frost protector.
