P, PI, PID controllers are continuous controllers. The control varia‐
bles can take any value in the control range from -100 % ... +100
%.
This controller type is used with an integrating control path (e.g.
[Batch Neutralisation] ). If the control deviation becomes small then
the control (actuation) of the actuator becomes smaller (propor‐
tional relationship). If the setpoint is nearly reached, then the con‐
trol output is nearly 0 %. However the setpoint is never exactly
reached. Consequently a permanent control deviation results.
When stabilizing large changes, excess oscillations may occur.
This controller type is used with a non-integrating control path (e.g.
flow neutralisations). Here excess fluctuation must be avoided. No
permanent control deviation must occur. The setpoint must always
be adhered to. A constant addition of metering chemicals is
required. It is not a malfunction when the controller does not stop
metering when the setpoint is reached.
This controller type has the properties of a PI controller. Due to the
