Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control Relay circuit and ladder diagram The first relay on the left is used as NC, and will allow current to flow until a voltage is applied to the input A. The second relay is NO and will not allow current to flow until a voltage is applied to the input B. If current is flowing through the second relay coil then current will flow through the coil in the third relay, and close the switch for output C. This circuit would normally be drawn in the ladder diagram as shown.

16.
16Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC scan cycle • the control loop is a continuous cycle of the PLC reading inputs, solving the ladder logic, and then changing the outputs • like any computer this does not happen instantly Read inputs PLC program changes outputs by examining inputs Set new outputs Process changes and PLC pauses while it checks its own operation THE CONTROL LOOP Power turned on
17.
17Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control The PLC internal working cycle • PLC accepts the inputs from the Input Port and stores the data to the Input Image Register • PLC then executes the ladder logic program with the input image content in a sequential manner, that is, from the left to the right and from the top to the bottom • upon the execution of a rung in the ladder, the contents in the Component Image Register are updated and at the end of a cycle, the outputs are updated
18.
18Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC Hardware Power Supply - This can be built into the PLC or be an external unit. Common voltage levels required by the PLC (with and without the power supply) are 24Vdc, 120Vac, 220Vac. CPU (Central Processing Unit) - This is a computer where ladder logic is stored and processed. I/O (Input/Output) - A number of input/output terminals must be provided so that the PLC can monitor the process and initiate actions.
19.
19Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC Hardware Indicator lights - These indicate the status of the PLC including power on, program running, and a fault. These are essential when diagnosing problems. Software - A software based PLC requires a computer with an interface card
20.
20Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS and OUTPUTS of PLC • Inputs to, and outputs from, a PLC are necessary to monitor and control a process. Both inputs and outputs can be categorized into two basic types: digital or continuous. • Outputs to actuators allow a PLC to cause something to happen in a process. A short list of popular actuators is given below in order of relative popularity
21.
21Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS and OUTPUTS of PLC • Inputs come from sensors that translate physical phenomena into electrical signals. Typical examples of sensors are listed below in relative order of popularity. • Proximity Switches - use inductance, capacitance or light to detect an object logically. • Switches - mechanical mechanisms will open or close electrical contacts for a logical signal.
22.
22Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS and OUTPUTS of PLC • Potentiometer - measures angular positions continuously, using resistance. • LVDT (linear variable differential transformer) - measures linear displacement continuously using magnetic coupling. • Inputs for a PLC come in a few basic varieties, the simplest are AC and DC inputs.
23.
23Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS and OUTPUTS of PLC • Outputs to actuators allow a PLC to cause something to happen in a process. A short list of popular actuators is given below in order of relative popularity. • Solenoid Valves - logical outputs that can switch a hydraulic or pneumatic flow. • Lights - logical outputs that can often be powered directly from PLC output boards.
24.
24Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS and OUTPUTS of PLC • Motor Starters - motors often draw a large amount of current when started, so they require motor starters, which are basically large relays. • Servo Motors - a continuous output from the PLC can command a variable speed or position. • Outputs from PLCs are often relays, but they can also be solid state electronics such as transistors for DC outputs or Triacs for AC outputs. • Continuous outputs require special output cards with digital to analog converters.
25.
25Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control Input connection • some PLCs require external DC supply • some PLCs have built-in 24 VDC supply
26.
26Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control INPUTS of PLC • PLC inputs must converts a variety of logic levels to the TTL +5V dc logic levels used on the data bus • can be done with circuits similar to those shown.
27.
27Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC Input Trade-offs • DC voltages are usually lower, and therefore safer (i.e., 12-24V) • DC inputs are very fast, AC inputs require a longer on-time. For example, a 60Hz wave may require up to 1/60s for reasonable recognition • DC voltages can be connected to larger variety of electrical systems • AC signals are more immune to noise than DC, so they are suited to long distances, and noisy (magnetic) environments • AC power is easier and less expensive to supply to equipment • AC signals are very common in many existing automation devices
28.
28Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control OUTPUTS of PLC • PLC must convert the +5V dc dc logic levels on the PLC data bus to external voltage levels • can be done with circuits similar to those shown, where it may be transistor output, or solid state relay (triac) output, or simply relay output
29.
29Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC output with sinking current • the output card shown in Figure on the right is an example of a 24Vdc output card that has a shared common • this type of output card would typically use transistors for the outputs
30.
30Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC output with sourcing current • the circuit shown in Figure on the right has the sequence of power supply, then device, then PLC outputs, then power supply • this requires that the outputs have a common
31.
31Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC with relay output • in Figure shown on the right the 24VDC supply is connected directly to both relays • when an output is activated the output switches on and power is delivered to the output devices
32.
32Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control PLC Wiring • Wiring Diagram for a Car-washing Machine
33.
33Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control Double coil designation • double or dual coiling is not a recommended practice. • using multiple output coils of the same device can cause the program operation to become unreliable • the coil operation designated last is the effective coil
34.
34Week© Vocational Training
Council, Hong Kong. EEE3420 Industrial Control Input durations • the ON or OFF duration of the PLC inputs must be longer than the operation cycle time of the PLC • taking a 10 ms (standard input filter) response delay into account, the ON/OFF duration must be longer than 20 ms if the operation cycle (scan time) is 10 ms • in the example above, input pulses of more than 25 Hz (1/(20ms ON+20ms OFF) = 1/40ms) cannot be sensed
35.
