PLC    Description

The main function of a PLC is to translate the instruction into the digital or analog codes needed to operate the device or machine. The main function of this PLC system is to collect data from field instrumentation & display the information on the operator station. The instruments are connected to the system equipment and piping. The collected data will be utilized by the PLC for process control.

The user interface based in a PV 300 (Allen Bradley), will assist the operator to supervise and control the process. Based on the displayed information the operator, by means of the user interface, can provide commands to the PLC. The PLC then executes the operator instructions.
