AUTO MANUAL | troller: ‘Automatic /IManual - The operating mode of the Antisurge con- Note: in MANUAL the operator must manipulate the recycle valve. b Width of the Safety Margin - The distance between the SCL and SLL, based on the equation b = b1 + (b2"n) + (b3*Td0"aSidt, Initial Safety Margin Minimum distance between SCL and SLL. ‘Safety On Bias Distance added to the SCL each time surge Is detected Derivative Response - A response of the Antisurge controller {b3) | where the SCL moves to meet the operating point. The RTL. remains fixed. DEV | Deviation The distance between the SCL and the OP. A positive value indicates that the O? is to the right of the SCL. A negative value indicates that the OP is to the left of the SCL. Fallback | Fallback Strategy - An alternate operational strategy to maintain the same level of surge protection when a required input fails, LIMIT | Limit-A response of the Antisurge controller that can override the Primary PI control, based on a secondary variable (Ps, Pd, or RC). OP | Operating Point- The point on the compressor map that repre- sents the current operating location of the compressor. PI___| Pi Response - The closed-loop response of the Antisurge control ler RTL | Recycle Trip Line- Line on compressor map where the open-loop RT response is triggered, RT _| Recycle Trip- Distance between the RTL and the SCL. SCL | Surge Control Line Line on compressor map where DEV has @ zero value. If the OP is left of the SCL, the recycle valve opens. If the OP is right of the SCL, the recycle valve closes, SLL | Surge Limit Line - Line on compressor map representing where surge occurs. Surge occurs when the OP is left ofthe SLL SO _| Safety On- Distance between the SLL and the SOL SOL | Safety On Line Line on compressor map where the controller recognizes surge and the Safety On response is triggered. a ee ee COMPRESSOR CONTROLS CORPORATION 4725 12'st Street, Des Moines, 1A 50323-2316, USA Tel: (1) 518-270-0857 + Fax: (1) 516-270-1331 « Web: www cccglobal.com "© 2000, Compressor Conve Corporation Al rights reserved Pinioa nUSA
