Why are Rate of Change Alarms used?
Rate of change alarms are used to predict an event that is abnormal behaviour for a system or process. The objective being in order to take preventative action in order to avoid system or process failure or damage. If a process value suddenly increases at a rate beyond the normal, then it indicates something unusual has changed in the system or process. This is different to an absolute (low or high) alarm.
