Proportional Band and Controller Action
Proportional Band, PB
Controller action
– Direct-Acting (Kc< 0)
“output increases as input increases“
– Reverse-Acting (Kc> 0)
“output increases as input decreases"

Summary of the Most Commonly Process Systems
Used Controller Modes
Proportional:
– Simple.
– Inherently stable when properly tuned.
– Easy to tune.
– Experiences offset at steady state. (OK for level control in storage tanks)
– No offset.
– Better dynamic response than reset alone.
– Possibilities exist for instability.

Summary of the Most Commonly Used Process Systems
Controller Modes
– Stable.
– Less offset than proportional alone (use of higher gain possible).
– Reduces lags, i.e., more rapid response.
– Most complex
– Rapid response
– No offset.
– Best control if properly tuned.
