The 4-20mA sensor is a current loop sensor with an output signal of 4-20mA of current, which is commonly used in industrial control and automation systems to detect physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, and flow. PID (Proportional Integral-differential) is a control algorithm used to control the error signal in the system, by adjusting the proportion, integral and differential three parameters, to achieve the purpose of controlling the output value. The ratio/limiter is a control mechanism used to limit how often visitors can use the service.
In industrial control systems, 4-20mA sensors are often used in conjunction with PID controllers. The 4-20mA sensor converts the detected physical quantity into the current signal output, and the PID controller adjusts the input value until the output reaches the set value according to the difference between the set target value and the actual value. In this way, precise control of physical quantities such as temperature, pressure and flow rate can be achieved.
Alternatively, the ratio/limiter can be used in conjunction with the PID controller. The ratio/limiter can limit the number and maximum number of calls per API, thereby controlling how often the service is used. This can help API providers limit the frequency of API access and prevent abuse, while ensuring the stability and availability of the service.
In short, 4-20mA sensors and PID controllers and ratio/limiter have a wide range of applications in industrial control systems, which can achieve accurate control of physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, flow, and limit the frequency of access to services to ensure the stability and availability of services.
