LIQUID INJECTION VALVE SETPOINTS
• Open Valve Above: Defi nes the temperature at which
the liquid injection valve will open to minimum
position.
• Target Discharge Temperature: Defi nes the desired
temperature of gas and oil discharging from the com-
pressor. The liquid injection valve position will adjust
to maintain this temperature.
• Deadband: Range above and below setpoint where
the controller will not make adjustments to the liquid
injection valve positon.
• Oil Separator Override Temperature: Separator Oil
Temperature must be above this temperature for the
liquid injection to operate.
• PID Tuning: PID Calculations displayed to aid in tun-
ing the PID loop.
• Loop Update Time: Defi nes the PID controller loop
time. The PID calculation will update every cycle of
the loop update timer.
• Proportional Gain (Kp): Defi nes the Proportional
Constant of the PID calculation.
• Integral Gain (Ki): Defi nes the Integral Constant of
the PID calculation.
• Derivative Gain (Kd): Defi nes the Derivative Constant
of the PID Calculation.
• Minimum Valve Open: Defi nes the minimum liquid
injection valve position.
• Liquid Injection Valve Force: Allows the user to manu-
ally force the liquid injection valve to a settable po-
sition. Activating the Liquid Injection Valve Force
pushbutton will command the liquid injection valve
to go to the set position, and will override calcula-
tions from the PID Controller.
