Abstract
A motor drive and method to control a motor in a fluid system. The method may comprise determining a pressure; determining a proportional error as a limited difference between the pressure and a pressure setpoint; determining an integral step as a limited proportional error; determining an integral error as a limited sum of the integral step and a preceding unbound integral error; determining an error as the product of the integral error, the proportional error, and a gain factor; and generating a control signal to cause the inverter to output a motor voltage to drive the motor and maintain the pressure about the pressure setpoint.
