Study Notes
Types of Control Systems
- A continuously modulated control system uses a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller.
- In a feedback control system, the control system compares the process variable (PV) with the setpoint (SP) to determine the deviation.
Control Systems and Logic
- A control system that uses software logic, such as in a programmable logic controller (PLC), is a discrete control system.
Control Systems and Setpoints
- In an open-loop control system, a control signal is applied to bring the process variable output of the plant to the same value as the setpoint.
Control Systems and Process Management
- A control system manages, commands, directs, or regulates the process using control loops.
