Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Closed-loop system bandwidth = 5
Expected Result:
- Maximum sampling interval = 0.1
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Maximum sampling interval = 0.1 s.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
maximum sampling interval = 1.0 / (2.0 * closed-loop system bandwidth)Maximum sampling interval.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does this calculator calculate?
The Industrial Control Loop Nyquist Sampling Interval Calculator estimates Maximum sampling interval based on the input parameters you provide
Why is closed-loop system bandwidth important in this calculation?
closed-loop system bandwidth is inversely proportional to maximum sampling interval. When you enter closed-loop system bandwidth in Hz, the calculator uses it in the engineering formula to compute the output
How should I interpret the result maximum sampling interval?
The calculator outputs maximum sampling interval in s. The result is computed directly from the input values using the defined engineering formula
What units should I use for the inputs?
Enter each value in the units shown next to the input field: Closed-loop system bandwidth (Hz). Make sure all inputs use the specified units for consistent results
What assumptions does this calculator use?
This calculator uses automatically validated engineering formulas. Results are approximate and should be validated against site-specific conditions, applicable codes, and professional engineering judgment
