Editor's Notes
- The PLC performs the logic functions of relays, timers, counters and sequencers. It has the following advantages: 1) Low cost 2) Reliability 3) Reprogramability
- The PLC inputs give it information about the machine or process that it is controlling. These are typically switches and sensors. The switches are connected to an input module that provides the interface between the switches or sensors and the PLC.Usually designed with opto – isolalators to protect the PLC
- The PLC outputs are connected directly or indirectly (e.g. through a relay) to actuator controls. Examples include solenoids on directional control valves, motors, motor contactors, alarms and warning lights.Triac: Used mainly for Alternating Current conditions (requires some form of over current protection)Transistors: For fast switching (used for DC components only/ low voltage situations)
- The wiring diagram in Fig 1.5 shows the inputs and outputs connected directly (hard wired) to the PLC. The devices shown are on/off or digital in nature but the signal to the PLC is analog. Many commonly used devices conform to a 4-20 mA standard whereby signals of 4mA and 20mA form respectively the minimum and maximum values of an analog signalWhat does analog signal in PLC imply ? It implies that a separate cable needs to be run between the end device and the control system because only a single analog signal can be represented on the circuit.
