Frequently asked questions

What are the symptoms of EPC/PCM instability at low flow?

Symptoms include long stabilization time and cycling pressure (P), which occur because proportioning valve duty cycle should never be 0%.

How can EPC/PCM instability at low flow be resolved?

Adding a bleed ensures stable pressure control. This can be achieved using either a fixed bleed or a variable bleed.
