7.5 Condensate accumulation control
Activate the Limitation of the system deviation for OPEN signal function to start up condensate
accumulation plants, in particular to avoid problematic excess temperatures. The controller re
-
sponse to set point deviations which cause the primary valve to open is attenuated. The control
-
ler response to set point deviations which cause the control valve to close remains unaffected.

Note!
The condensate accumulation controlfunction can only be activatedwhen no on/off control has
been configured, i.e. when FB10 = ON or FB17 = ON.
7.6 Three-step control
The flow temperature can be controlled using a PI algorithm. The valve reacts to pulses that the
controller emits when a system deviation occurs. The length of the first pulse, in particular, de-
pends on the extent of the system deviation and the selected
Proportional gain K
P
(the pulse
length increases as K
P
increases). The pulse and pause lengths change continuously until the
system deviation has been eliminated. The pause length between the single pulses is greatly in-
fluenced by the
Reset time T
N
(the pause length increases as T
N
increases).
The
Transit time T
Y
specifies the time required by the valve to travel through the range of 0 to
100 %.
