PID band, gain & reset conversion
Convert proportional band to controller gain, and integral time to reset rate.
Inputs

Results
- Controller gain (Kc)
- 2
- Reset rate
- 2 repeats/min
Tuning-term conventions vary between controllers. Confirm whether the device uses proportional band or gain, and repeats/minute or seconds/repeat, before transferring any tuning values.
Formula & guidance
gain Kc = 100 ÷ proportional band %; reset = 60 ÷ integral time seconds
Tuning-term conventions vary between controllers. Confirm whether the device uses proportional band or gain, and repeats/minute or seconds/repeat, before transferring any tuning values.
