1. Common applications for PID control:
Flow control: Use a flow sensor to feedback the flow data and perform accurate flow
control.
Pressure control: Use a pressure sensor to feedback the pressure data and perform
precise pressure control.
Air volume control: Use an air volume sensor to feedback the air volume data to achieve
excellent air volume regulation.
Temperature control: Use a thermocouple or thermistor to feedback temperature data for
comfortable temperature control.
Speed control: Use a speed sensor to feedback motor shaft speed or input another
machine speed as a target value for synchronous control.
2. PID control loop:
K
P
Proportional Gain (P), Ti Integral Time (I), T
d
Differential Time (D), S Calculation
3. Concept of PID control:
Proportional gain (P):
The output is proportional to input. With only a proportional gain control, there is always a
steady-state error.
