  • Page 21 The 95% filter efficiency recommendation is based on NIOSH respirator selection logic † sequence for exposure to particulates. Selection of filter efficiency (i.e. 95%, 99% or 99.9 7%) depends on how much filter leakage can be accepted. Higher filter efficiency means lower filter leakage.
  • Page 22 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION HEALTH DATA SUMMARY Epidemiological studies of RCF production workers have indicated no increased incidence of respiratory disease nor other significant health effects. In animal studies, long-term, high-dose inhalation exposure resulted in the development of respiratory disease in rats and hamsters.

    User Manual 3200 Series 11.2.1 Proportional Band ‘PB’ The proportional band, or gain, delivers an output which is proportional to the size of the error signal. It is the range over which the output power is continuously adjustable in a linear fashion from 0% to 100% (for a heat only controller). Below the proportional band the output is full on (100%), above the proportional band the output is full off (0%) as shown in the diagram below.

    3200 Series User Manual 11.2.3 Derivative Term ‘TD’ Derivative action, or rate, provides a sudden shift in output as a result of a rapid change in error. If the measured value falls quickly derivative provides a large change in output in an attempt to correct the perturbation before it goes too far. It is most beneficial in recovering from small perturbations.

    User Manual 3200 Series 11.2.5 High and Low Cutback Cutback high ‘CBHI’ and Cutback low ‘CBLO’ are values that modify the amount of overshoot, or undershoot, that occurs during large step changes in PV (for example, under start-up conditions). They are independent of the PID terms which means that the PID terms can be set for optimal steady state response and the cutback parameters used to modify any overshoot which may be present.

  • Page 204 Installation and Operation Handbook Tuning MANUAL TUNING If for any reason automatic tuning gives unsatisfactory results, you can tune the controller manually. There are a number of standard methods for manual tuning. The one described here is the Ziegler-Nichols method. With the process at its normal running temperature: 1.
  • Page 205 Tuning Installation and Operation Handbook 4.3.2 Integral action and manual reset In a full three-term controller (that is, a PID controller), the integral term ‘ti’ automatically removes steady state errors from the setpoint. If the controller is set up to work in two-term mode (that is, PD mode), the integral term will be set to ‘OFF’.
  • Page 206 Installation and Operation Handbook Tuning MOTORISED VALVE CONTROL The 2416 can be configured for motorised valve control as an alternative to the standard PID control algorithm.

  • Page 208 Installation and Operation Handbook Tuning GAIN SCHEDULING Gain scheduling is the automatic transfer of control between one set of PID values and another. In the case of the 2416 controller, this is done at a presettable process value. It is used for the more difficult to control processes which exhibit large changes in their response time or sensitivity at, for example, high and low temperatures, or when heating or cooling.
  • Page 209 Installation and Operation Handbook Programmer Operation 5. Chapter 5 PROGRAMMER OPERATION This chapter deals with the setpoint programming option. All 2416 instruments have a basic 8-segment programmer built-in as standard. This facility must be enabled by the user, as explained in section 5.6, Configuring the Programmer.
  • Page 210 Programmer Operation Installation and Operation Handbook What Is Setpoint Programming? Many applications need to vary temperature, or process value, with time. Such applications need a controller which varies a setpoint as a function of time. All 2416 programmer models will do this. The setpoint is varied by using a setpoint program.
  • Page 211 Installation and Operation Handbook Programmer Operation Programmer States Programs has five states:− Reset, Run, Hold, Holdback and End. State Description Indication In Reset, the programmer is inactive and the controller behaves as a standard Reset Both the RUN and controller, with the setpoint determined by the value set in the lower readout.
