PID control

Definition

The appropriate product category
A control loop that uses signals proportional to the linear combination of the input, the time integral of the input, and the time derivative of the input to control the output.
The appropriate product category
  • icon_right_b.gifInverters
A control method that matches a feedback (detected) value to a set target value by combining proportional (P), integral (I), and derivative (D) control. The manipulated variable from internal PID is used to control speeds, pressures, flowrates, temperatures, and other items as a frequency reference to an Inverter function.
The appropriate product category
PID control is feedback control method that combines proportional, integral, and derivative actions. The proportional action provides smooth control without hunting. The integral action automatically corrects offset. The derivative action responds quickly to external disturbances.
