Design and Function Operating points and control modes The controller SIGMA CONTROL 2 can operate in the following control modes: ■ DUAL ■ QUADRO ■ VARIO ■ CONTINUOUS ■ DYNAMIC Option C1 ■ MODULATING control DUAL In the DUAL control mode, the machine is switched back and forth between LOAD and IDLE to maintain the machine working pressure between the preset minimum and maximum values.
If the network pressure falls below the TARGET value: SIGMA CONTROL 2 runs the motor up to a speed at which air delivery matches the air demand. The above description is valid only when the Pressure control option is set to Local mode: in the menu:10.1.1 Power switching .
The load and power consumption of the drive motor rises and falls with the air demand. To ensure optimal control on large compressors, the control air for the proportional controller is tak‐ en from an external air receiver.
