Scaling drive feedback values
Feedback values are provided with units of percent, where 0% and 100%
correspond to the range of the sensor being used to measure the control variable.
These points have default units in Hz. If other units are required:
• Unbundle these points with appropriate slopes and intercepts.
• The new intercept equals the lowest value of the desired range.
• Calculate the new slope as follows:
Example
– You are controlling water temperature from a cooling tower using the
ACH550 to control a fan. The temperature sensor has a range of 30 to 250 degrees
Fahrenheit.
To unbundle the set point (INPUT REF 2), for commanding in degrees Fahrenheit,
where 0…60 Hz is equal to 30…250
°
F:
To unbundle the feedback (PRC PID FBCK) for monitoring in degrees Fahrenheit:
Loop gains
PRC PID GAIN (Point 50) and PRC PID ITIM (Point 51) are PID parameters similar
to the P and I gains in the APOGEE TECs. Because the ABB PI loop and the
Siemens loop are structured differently, there is no a one-to-one correspondence
between the gains. The following formulas allow translation from ABB gains to
Siemens gains and vice versa:
