3.10.2.4 Valve speed adjustment
Valve speed effects:
• Response time
Default value is 1000. Adjustment range is from 1 to 1000.
This parameter effects valve plate actuating speed.
Speed adjustment is effective for PRESSURE CONTROL and POSITION CONTROL.
Note: Normally best pressure control response is achieved with max. valve speed. In particular applications it may be of
advantage to have a slower valve response.
Note: OPEN and CLOSE are always done with max. speed.
Adjustment procedure:
1. Use optimal gain factor, sensor delay time and setpoint ramp according to preceding tuning steps.
2. Open valve.
3. Control a typical pressure / flow situation.
4. Repeat from step 2 with slower valve speed until required response is achieved.
Note: In case a long ramp time is required to get optimal performance for pressure decrease situations it may be of
advantage to apply different settings for decrease / raise control situations.
Local operation:
(‘Control View’ resp. ‘Control Performance Analyzer’)
Remote operation:
Go to ‘Setup / Controller’ menu. Select valve speed.
Note: It’s not possible to do valve speed adjustment
via remote operation.
