Calculation for Control Pulses (Boundless Control)
The following calculations are for guidance when setting Deadband, proportional and integral values.
The Deadband on the ControlMaster is set in engineering units, but in order to be applied to the calculations it must be set
as a %, this can be calculated in the following way:
Minimum ’ON’ time of integral action pulses (for a fixed control deviation)
Minimum (approximate) time between integral action pulses (for a fixed control deviation)
Duration of the proportional step
% Control Deviation
Ratio* The required valve position = (Ratio x PID O/P) + Bias.
Bias*
*Applicable only for motorized valve with feedback only – see page 32.
% Deadband = Deadband (eng units) x 100

= Travel Time x Deadband% (in seconds)
% Proportional Band
= 2 x (% Control Deviation) x Travel Time in seconds
(% Proportional Band)
= Integral Action Time x Deadband% (in seconds)
2 x Control Deviation
= Setpoint - Process Variable x 100%
