Overview of PLC Automation Systems

The document provides an overview of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and their use in automation. It discusses that PLCs are digital computers used to automate electromechanical processes. PLCs are designed for multiple inputs/outputs, extended temperature ranges, and resistance to electrical noise and vibration. The document then lists major PLC manufacturers, describes small to large PLC sizes based on I/O and memory capabilities, and outlines typical PLC programming software. It provides examples of PLC applications in mixing liquids and includes diagrams of PLC components, wiring, and the scan cycle process.

What is Automation Need of Automation Relation Of Automation with PLC

A programmable logic controller (PLC) or programmable controller is a digital computer used for automation of electromechanical processes. Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC is designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact. A PLC is an example of a real time system since output results must be produced in response to input conditions within a bounded time, otherwise unintended operation will result.

POWER SUPPLY Provides the voltage needed to run the primary PLC components

I/O MODULES Provides signal conversion and isolation between the internal logic- level signals inside the PLC and the fields high level signal.

PROCESSOR Provides intelligence to command and govern the activities of the entire PLC systems.

PROGRAMMING DEVICE used to enter the desired program that will determine the sequence of operation and control of process equipment or driven machine.

List of items required when working with PLCs: 1. Programming Terminal - laptop or desktop PC. 2. PLC Software. PLC manufacturers have their own specific software and license key. 3. Communication cable for connection from Laptop to PLC. 4. Documentation- (PLC manual, Software manual, drawings, ladder program printout, and Seq. of Operations manual.)

PHASE 1

Read Inputs Scan


PHASE 2

Program Execution
PHASE 3

Diagnostics/ Comm
PHASE 4

Output Scan
15

PHASE 1 Input Status scan


A PLC scan cycle begins with the CPU reading the status of its inputs.
PHASE 2 Logic Solve/Program Execution The application program is executed using the status of the inputs PHASE 3 Logic Solve/Program Execution Once the program is executed, the CPU performs diagnostics and communication tasks
16

PHASE 4 - Output Status Scan


An output status scan is then performed, whereby the stored output values are sent to actuators and other field output devices. The cycle ends by updating the outputs.

PROGRAMMING

Normally Open (NO)

Normally Closed (NC)

Power flows through these contacts when they are closed. The normally open (NO) is true when the input or output status bit controlling the contact is 1. The normally closed (NC) is true when the input or output status bit controlling the contact is 0.

18

AND OPERATION

A
Rung

Each rung or network on a ladder program represents a logic operation. In the rung above, both inputs A and B must be true (1) in order for the output C to be true (1).

19

OR OPERATION

A
Rung B

In the rung above, it can be seen that either input A or B is be true (1), or both are true, then the output C is true (1).

20

NOT OPERATION

A
Rung

In the rung above, it can be seen that if input A is be true (1), then the output C is true (0) or when A is (0), output C is 1.

21

Less wiring. Wiring between devices and relay contacts are done in the PLC program. Easier and faster to make changes. Trouble shooting aids make programming easier. Reliable components make the device to operate for years.
