Illustration 2.14 Process PID Control in a Ventilation System
In a ventilation system, the temperature is to be settable
from - 5 to 35
°
C with a potentiometer of 0-10 V. The set
temperature must be kept constant, for which purpose the
Process Control is to be used.
The control is of the inverse type, which means that when
the temperature increases, the ventilation speed is
increased as well, so as to generate more air. When the
temperature drops, the speed is reduced. The transmitter
used is a temperature sensor with a working range of -10
to 40
°
C, 4-20 mA. Min./Max. speed 300/1500 RPM.
