There you should find lots of information on how to make PID regulator more responsible. Some start info here: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/2362761

Dear Martins_Eng, Check the points again here: Help with measurement and flow control hdhosseini Of course you need to tune the loop,You can set initial value selected for Ti and Td(and Tm_lag) or use tables for tuning provided in this book. Also you have option of using valuable information shared by Forum's members here(PID tunning.zip ). Best regards, Hamid Hosseini
