Question
In PID control, what are the differences between ON/OFF time-sharing
proportional control, cycle control, optimum cycle control, and phase
control?
Answer
G3PX Power
Controller Phase Control

1. The output amount is changed each half cycle, enabling high accuracy
temperature control.
2. More finely tuned control enables resistance to external disturbances
and few heat shocks, thereby extending the service life of the heater.
3. The gradient can be set as desired, and so the output amount can be set
when a Power Controller is used in a set with a Temperature Controller.
4. Inrush current can be suppressed by using a soft start or a
constant-current circuit.
5. Noise occurs due to phase control.
G32A-EA and Solid-state Relay Cycle Control

1. The output cycle of the voltage output enables detailed control with a
short cycle, which achieves temperature control with greater precision
than ON/OFF time-sharing proportional control.
2. Manual control without the use of Temperature Controllers can be
achieved.
ON/OFF Time-sharing Proportional Control

1. ON/OFF time-sharing proportional control
is the most widely used control method in combination with Temperature
Controllers.
2. Frequently turning the power supply ON and OFF ill shorten the service
life of the heater.
3. This method is suitable for controlling items with a large heat
capacity, which are difficult to heat and cool.
