Question 1 of 27070

A controller with floating action has a controlled variable where the range of values produces no motion of the final control element. This range of values is called the __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• floating (proportional) controller action in automatic control systems • how a controller behaves when the error is very small (around the desired value) • difference between set point, controlled variable, and the region where the output doesn’t move

💭 Think About

• In a floating action controller, what happens to the final control element (like a valve) when the error is extremely small or within a certain band? • Which term describes a ‘dead band’ or range around the desired value where the controller does not move the output at all? • Which options (set point, control point, offset, or another term) refer to a specific value, and which refer to a RANGE or BAND of values?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice describes a range or band of values, not a single specific value. • Decide which option is commonly used to describe a no‑action or dead band in control systems. • Verify that the term you choose fits the description: a region where the final control element does not move even though the controlled variable is changing slightly.
