PNEUMATIC CONTROL LINE [1 record]

Record 1 1982-03-10

English

Subject field(s)
  • Regulatory Systems (Electronic Instrumentation)
OBS

The introduction of two converters into the chain naturally reduces the accuracy of control, and it does not eliminate the delay caused by the pneumatic control line of the control unit. When the line is so long that the delay is too great for corrective action, an electrical controller must be used.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Systèmes cybernétiques de régulation
OBS

L'introduction de deux convertisseurs dans la chaîne nuit évidemment à la précision de la régulation et n'élimine pas le retard dû à la ligne de commande pneumatique de l'organe de réglage. Lorsque la longueur de ligne introduit un retard intolérable dans l'action correctrice, il est obligatoire d'utiliser un régulateur électrique.
