About Pressure Controllers

Pressure controllers are used to regulate positive or negative (vacuum) pressure. They receive pressure sensor inputs, provide control functions, and output control signals. Pressure controllers use several control types. Limit controls protect personnel and equipment by interrupting power through a load circuit when pressure exceeds or falls below a set point. Advanced controls use non-linear control strategies such as adaptive gain, dead-time compensation, and feed-forward control. Linear controls use proportional, integral and derivative (PID) control; proportional and integral (PI) control; proportional and derivative (PD) control; or proportional (P) control. PID control uses an intelligent input/output (I/O) module or program instruction for automatic closed-loop operation. PI control integrates error signaling for steady-state or offset errors. By contrast, PD control differentiates error signals to derive the rate of change. PD control increases the speed of controller response, but can be noisy and decrease system stability.

Products & Services Related to Pressure Controllers

Batch Controllers

Batch controllers maintain the correct size of a discrete batch of process material, such as the volume of a liquid. They are often interfaced with sensors such as load cells, or with volumetric flow meters.

Humidity Controllers

Humidity controllers monitor and maintain proper humidity levels in environmental test applications, food storage areas, and electronic equipment rooms.

Level Controllers

Level controllers monitor, regulate, and control liquid or solid levels in a process.

Pump Controllers

Pump controllers monitor flow and/or level variables, and control a pump accordingly to maintain the desired levels. Pump control can include simply turning a pump on and off, or more advanced controls for pump speed, output pressure, etc.

Specialty Industrial Process Controllers

Specialty industrial process controllers are used in unlisted, specialized or proprietary applications.

Temperature Controllers

Temperature controllers accept inputs from temperature sensors or thermometers, and then output a control signal to keep the temperature at the desired level.

Web Tension Indicators

Web tension indicators measure and report tension parameters in web or other flat-sheet production processes. Some types of web tension indicators have control functionality as well.
