Properties
A pure I-controller completely eliminates the effects of any malfunctions which occur. It therefore has a favourable static behav-
iour. On account of its final actuating speed control it operates slower than the P-controller and has a tendency to oscillate. It is
therefore dynamically relatively unfavourable.
