Monitoring Functions
Leakage:
Forward and Return flows are monitored continuously, compensating for
volume and meter differences. If a preset flow difference limit is
exceeded, leakage alarm is issued and the installation is cut off.
Seepage: OptiTight®
The patented OptiTight® mechanism employs
individual control of the cut-off valves to test the installation tightness one or more
times daily, whereby even minute seepage may be detected.
System Error:
The system checks the flow meters against each other, whereby meter blocks and
occurring defects are immediately discovered.
Whenever a valve is closed - manually or by alarm - the system checks its tightness.
In case of component failure, System Alarm is issued. The installation is cut off by meter errors.
Supply Error:
The system monitors the mains supply and all internal supplies. If either of these fail,
a Supply Alarm is issued. This may not cause a cutoff of the heating supply.
Alarm Functions
On leakage and meter errors, system LMI-F will cut off the installation,
issue visual and audible alarms, and activate the alarm relay.
Supply errors are reported via the alarm relay, and possibly also visibly and audibly.
Meter errors are signalled visibly.

Options
Liquid Sensor Attachment:
System LMI-F accomodates via interface ILS-C
up to two liquid sensors type LS-X, whereby the
system offers point protection of paricularly sensitive ares so that the installation may be cut off on
Liquid Sensor alarm if desired.
SMS-alarm:
By attachment of an external SMS-alarm to the
alarm relay output, system LMI-F can ship a text message to a selected mobile phone number.
