    INSTALLATION Series 590 4.6.1 Tuning of control performance with fixed PI pressure controller 4.6.1.1 Optimizing P gain and I gain This valve may be used for downstream or upstream pressure control depending on configuration. The PI parameters of the pressure controller require correct adjustment. These parameters must be set once during system setup and are stored in the device memory which is power fail save.
  • Page 35 Series 590 INSTALLATION Optimizing P gain While optimizing P gain, the gas flow determined above has to be constant all the time. Start optimization with P gain set to 1.0 and I gain set to 0.0. Set chamber pressure to SP2, wait until the pressure is stable. Set pressure to SP1. If the transition from SP2 to SP1 results in a significant pressure over shoot or even does not stabilize at all, the P gain is too high.
