9. Using PID Control for Constant Flow / Pressure Applications
9.1 What is PID Control?
The PID function in the inverter can be used to maintain a constant process variable such as pressure, flow,
temperature by regulating the output frequency (motor speed). A feedback device (transducer) signal is used to
compare the actual process variable to a specified setpoint. The difference between the set-point and feedback
signal is called the error signal.
The PID control tries to minimize this error to maintain a constant process variable by regulating the output
frequency (motor speed).

The amplitude of the error can be adjusted with the Proportional Gain parameter 10-05 and is directly related to
the output of the PID controller, so the larger gain the larger the output correction.
