to 100% P: Measures the difference between setpoint and actual value (error value) The bigger the error value, the more the controller reacts The bigger the error value, the smaller the pulse interval PID control Example: setpoint = 7 & LWT = 8
P: 8 7 = 1 small difference: compressors at 25%
(example) (not at startup >9,7) LWT stays at 8 for 2 minutes (example) I: long duration of error value compressors load up (>25%)
I: Measures the duration of the error value
The longer the error takes, the more the controller reacts The longer the error takes, the smaller the pulse interval PID control Example: setpoint = 7 & LWT = 18
P: 18 7 = 11 big difference: all compressors to 100%
after 1 min: LWT = 10
D: fast error variation (18 10 in 1 min) (example)
D reduces compressors to 50% (example) to avoid LWT to
