CEM-PA-B
Product Description:
This closed loop PID amplifier, drives a single solenoid proportional pressure or flow
control valve coil up to 2.6A. It is suitable to provide precise closed loop control in
pressure, force, or velocity systems. This module uses traditional PID error correction to
provide stable control in dynamic systems.
A wide range of analog signals are accepted. User may select either voltage or current
input mode. These inputs are easily scaled to match system requirements. Input
command can be ramped. PID variables are adjustable over a wide range. The
Amplifier is easily switched from open loop to closed loop control.
Min and Max output current are adjustable. Output characteristics can be independently
customized. The module is disabled if the coil outputs are shorted or open. If command
current signal is outside of the proper range, the module is disabled. PWM and Dither
are user adjustable.
This module is easily adapted to a variety of system requirements. All variables are user
adjusted with easy to use software on your Microsoft Windows laptop. Control variables
are stored in non-volatile memory internal to the module. All variables can be read by
the laptop, and reproduced exactly on other modules.
