Method and electronic device for compensation of the hysteresis of pneumatically driven fittings

A method for compensation of the hysteresis of a pneumatically driven fitting having an electropneumatic valve, the method comprising:

• driving the electropneumatic valve by a position regulator in a closed control loop for position regulation of a switching element of a pneumatic actuating drive for operation of the fitting;
• compensating the hysteresis of the fitting by the position regulator via at least one hysteresis correction factor, wherein the compensation for the hysteresis is carried out separately for a first basic case of starting or reversing the switching element and for a second basic case of continuous movement of the switching element, such that a dominant static friction is compensated for in the first basic case and a dominant sliding friction is compensated for in the second basic case, and the pneumatic actuating drive operates the switching element matched thereto;
• and
• determining an average speed which results between the switching element breaking loose and stopping again to measure control-loop characteristics for the second basic case.
