Scenario
A fill pump starts when the tank reaches low level, stays on through a seal-in path, and stops at the high-level switch. A timer allows a few seconds for the flow switch to prove flow before latching an alarm.
Annotation key

parallel:block is the seal-in path. TONis the on-delay timer used as a permissive before declaring no-flow.OTLlatches the alarm so an operator must acknowledge the failure.
