●Offset function
Function for shifting the target temperature for actual temperature control from SV by adding or subtracting a separately set offset value (+ or – a certain number of °C) to or from the set temperature (SV).
For example, if the temperatur🐼e upon arrival at the object of temperature control is shifte🗹d higher (or lower) relative to the temperature discharged from the chiller because a certain amount of heat input is received from piping due to the effects of ambient temperature, this offset value is set to correct that effect.
●ON/OFF temperature control
A control method for adjusting temperature by turning temperature control output ON or OFF relative to the set temperature.
When the temperature is above (below) the set temperature, output of the refrigerator (heater) is turned ON, and when the temperature is below (above) the set temperature, output is turned OFF.
Since there are only two operating rates relative to the set temp❀erature, 0% or 100%, this is also called 2-pos♔ition control.
