16.4.5 Condensate accumulation control
Activate the limitation of set point deviation for OPEN signal function to start up condensate
accumulation plants, in particular to avoid problematic excess temperatures. The controller
response to set point deviations which cause the primary valve to open is attenuated. The
controller response to set point deviations which cause the control valve to close remains un-
affected.
The condensate accumulation control function can only be activated when the control circuit
concerned is controlled using a PI algorithm (three-step control).
