PID-Control
Each loop has one reverse (heating) and one direct (cooling) acting PID sequence.

Proportional Control:
Proportional-band X
P
: The proportional part is defined through the p-band. A narrow P-band increases the sensitivity of
the controller. Typical values used are 1 – 1.5K for heating, 2 – 3K for cooling sequences.
The P-band should be extended in case the ID-Part is active, to prevent instability.
Integral & Differential Control:
The algorithm used reduces the swinging tendency of the control loop and improves a direct approach of the current value
to the setpoint. The ID part is defined by two parameters:
The time interval TI specifies how fast the control sequence reacts. A low value (short interval) increases the swinging
tendency and with it the risk of an instable loop. A high value (long interval) slows than reaction time.
The integral gain factor KI specifies how strong the control sequence reacts. Opposite to TI a high gain factor increases
instability and a low factor delays the response of the controller.
We recommend the following values:
For air based heating systems: TI = 3s, KI = 1.0
For floor heating systems: TI = 5s, KI = 0.5
For air cooling systems: TI = 3s, KI = 1.2
For humidifying systems: TI = 60s, KI = 0.4
For dehumidifying systems: TI = 70s, KI = 0.3
Pressure Control (VAV): TI = 1s, KI = 0.8 (depending on speed of actuator KI varies)
