Using Pid Control - Omron SYSDRIVE RV Series User Manual

Using PID Control

PID control is a method of making the feedback value (detection value) match the set target value. By combin-
ing proportional control (P), integral control (I), and derivative control (D), you can even control targets
(machinery) with play time.
The characteristics of the PID control operations are given below.
P control Outputs the amount of operation proportional to the deviation. You cannot, however, set the
deviation to zero using P control alone.
I control Outputs the amount of operation that integrates the deviation. Used for matching feedback
value to the target value. I control is not suited, however, to rapid variations.
D control Outputs the amount of operation derived from the deviation. Can respond promptly to rapid
variations.
PID Control Operation
To understand the differences between each PID control operation (P, I, and D, the variation in the amount of
operation (output frequency) is as shown in the following diagram when the deviation (i.e., the difference
between the target value and feedback value) is fixed.
Amount of operation
PID Control Applications
The following table shows examples of PID control applications using the Inverter.
Applica-
tion
• Feeds back machinery speed information, and matches speed to the target value.
Speed Con-
• Inputs speed information from other machinery as the target value, and performs
trol
synchronous control using the actual speed feedback.
Pressure
Feeds back pressure information, and performs constant pressure control.
Control
Flow Rate
Feeds back flow rate information, and controls the flow rate highly accurately.
Control
Tempera-
Feeds back temperature information, and performs temperature adjustment control
ture Con-
by rotating the fan.
