 COMPONENTS & THEIR SYMBOLS

 The following are most commonly used

components.

 Control transformers.

 Fuses/MCBs.

 Switches/Sensors.

 Relays/Contactors Contnu…..
CONTROL TRANSFORMER
Transformer is a component which converts electrical voltage/current from one
circuit to the other circuits at the same frequency.

If the person were to touch any part of metal bulb the shock could be lethal.However if
the bulb is powered by 110VAC or less the resulting shock would likely be much less
severe.

In order to make large ,powerful machines effective and cost effective and reduce line
Current, most are powered by high voltages (230 VAC,440VAC).

This means line voltage must be reduce to 230VAC or less for the controls.

This is done using a Control Transformer.

Contnu…..

Secondary winding

230VAC 0VAC 24VAC 0VAC

The secondary windings are generally rated at 230VAC,110VAC,or 24VAC.

 MCB

MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker)

MCB is a device which cuts of the circuit if the current is more than predetermined
value,flows in a circuit.

Control circuits are always protected by MCB. This prevents damage to the control
components in the event of short circuit in the control circuit.

MCB must be rated at a current that is less than or equal to the rated Current of
control circuit.

MCB must be connected in series with the circuit.

 USES OF SWITCHES

Switches are used to send instruction/signals to

the control logic.

Switches are installed on the moving parts

of a machine to provide automatic feedback
to the control logic.
TYPES OF SWITCH & SENSOR

TYPES OF PUSHBUTTON & LAMP
 Momentary
 Maintained
 Mushroom Head
 Contacts and Coils
Contacts have two states ,ON and OFF.In PLCs two type of
contacts.
Normally open (NO)
This type of contact does not allow current to flow through it when it is
switched OFF.
When the contact is switched ON,the circuit is completed and current flows
through the circuit.

Normally close (NC)

This type of contact allows current to flow through it when it is switched OFF.
When the contact is switched ON,the circuit is broken and stops the current
flow in the circuit.

Coils
Coils are output devices that are controlled By PLC as per the input
conditions of ladder logic is True or ON value.The coil is set to the ON status
and device performs its function.
 FUNCTION OF SWITCHES
The contacts (Rear blocks ) on push button can be of
two types.
Normally Open (N/O)

 FUNCTION OF SWITCHES
Limit Switch: Limit switches are not operator accessible,instead they are
Activated by moving part on the machine.
They are usually mechanical switches.

Example: Mechanically operated limit switch is the switch on the

refrigerator
Doors that turns on inside the light.
Description Symbol Comment

 FUNCTION OF SENSORS
Type of Proximity Sensors.
 Inductive proximity sensor.
 Capacitive proximity sensor.

 Inductive proximity sensor

It operates on the principle that the inductance of a coil and
the power losses in the coil vary as a metallic (or inductive)
object is passed near by it.
Because of this operating principle ,inductive proximity
sensors are only used for sensing metal objects.
They will not work with non-metallic materials.
 FUNCTION OF SENSORS

Inductive proximity sensors are available in both AC and DC

powered types.

Most sensors available built in LED that indicates when the

sensor output is on while the object is sensed.

Capacitive proximity sensor

The principle of operation of the sensor is that internal
oscillator will not oscillate until a target material is moved
near to the sensor face.
This will work with Non-metallic objects.
 SENSORS

 CONTACTORS/RELAYS
A relay or Contactor is an electromagnetic device assembled of a frame,
electromagnetic coil and contacts (Movable and Fixed).

The movable contacts are mounted via an insulator to a plunger that moves
with in a bobbin.

A coil of copper wire is wound on the bobbin to create an electromagnet.

A spring holds the plunger up and always from the electromagnet.

When the electromagnet is energized by passing an electric current through

coil,the magnetic field pulls the plunger into the core,which pulls the movable
contacts downwards.

Two fixed pairs of contacts are mounted to the relay frame on electrical
insulator so that when movable contacts are not being pulled towards the core
(The coil is de-energized) they physically touch the upper fixed pair of contacts
And,when being pulled towards the coil,touch the lower pair of fixed contacts.
 CONTACTORS&RELAYS

 Coil R1

Normally open and normally closed contacts of above figures have lines
extending from both sides of the symbols.These are the connecting lines
which,on a real relay would be the connection points for wires
 OVER LOAD RELAY
Over load relay is component used to break the circuit and over loaded caution
automatically if there is short circuit or power over loaded in the power circuit.

Over load relay will have NO/NC contacts to inter lock the control circuit.

Mainly it is mounted under the Power contactor (L1,L2,L3 terminals) of 3-Phase

induction motors.

Restarting of OLR is very easy ,just pressing the RESET knob.

 INDICATING LAMPS

LAMPS
The lamps are used to indicate present operation status of
the machine or fault conditions.

The indicators are generally white,they generally covered

with colored lenses.
 INDICATING LAMPS
The colors are usually RED,GREEN or AMBER etc.
RED LAMP
This is used for Power is ON,the machine is running.
the machine door is open or other important faults.
GREEN LAMP
This is used for safety conditions (power to the motion
controllers OFF status etc).
AMBER LAMP
This indicates that are important but not dangerous.
Fluid getting low,Machine paused,etc.

 FUNDAMENTALS OF BASIC DIAGRAMS

All electrical control circuit diagrams are designed using a

standard format call the Relay Logic Circuit (RLC).

Ladder diagram begin with control transformer and protective

MCB on the left side.

As mentioned earlier,From transformer and MCB combination,

horizontal lines are extended to both sides and then drawn
vertically down the page as shown in Figure in next slide.
 BASIC CONTROL CIRCUIT

These vertical lines are called power lines.

The voltage deference between the two vertical lines is equal to the control
transformer secondary voltage.
 WIRING AND NUMBERING
Total wires in a control circuit are numbered.
In our circuit,the left line number is 2 and right line number is 0.
When the circuit is designed,the actual wires used to connect
the components will have a ferrule(Number) on each end
called a wire numbering.
Numbering makes easier to design,troubleshoot and modify the
circuitry.
By using wire ferrule numbers,all the wires in the control panel
will be identified and unnecessary to use more than one color
wire to wire the circuit (except for ground wire).
 SWITCH GEAR NOMENCLATURE PREFIX

Some of the most commonly used reference nomenclature

prefixes are listed below.

 T/F ------------ Transformer

 MCB ----------- Miniature Circuit Breaker
 CR ------------ Control Relay
 PB ------------ Push Button
 LS ------------ Limit Switch
 PX ------------ Proximity Switch
 OS ------------ Optical Sensor
 SS ------------Selector Switch
 OLR ------------ Over Load Relay
 FWD ------------ Forward
 REV ------------ Reverse
 L1 ------------ Lamp1
Etc…..

The number of the nomenclature is assigned by designer beginning

with the number 1.
 CIRCUIT REFERENCE NOMENCLATURE

All electrical circuits and every switch gear is given a reference

nomenclature. This is a label assigned to the switch gear so
that it can be easily located.
The reference nomenclature for each switch gear appears on
the schematic diagram.
The reference nomenclature consists of an alphabetical prefix
followed by a number.
The prefix identifies that the kind of switch gear it is (Viz Control
transformer,Relay,Pushbutton…etc).

 RELAY LOGIC
Since the relays in a machine perform some type of control
operation,it can be set that they perform a logic function.
As with all logic functions, these control circuits must consist of
the fundamental AND,OR,and compliment logic operations.
N/O,N/C contacts and relay coils can be wired to perform these
Same fundamental logical functions.
By properly wiring relay contacts and coils together ,we can
develop any logic function as required.
 AND Lamp Circuit

 AND Lamp Ladder diagram
To represent the previous diagram in ladder logic form an
electrical Machine diagram,we will utilize the power from the
vertical lines and simply add the two Pushbuttons and Lamp
in series between the two vertical power lines as shown in next
slide.

The switches are on the left and lamp is on the right.

This is a standard convention when designing and drawing

machine circuits.The controlling devices are always positioned
on the left side of the power line,and the controlled devices are
always positioned on the right side of the power line

The next slide shows the combined ladder diagram (AND,OR logic).
Note that since the pushbuttons PB-1 and PB-2 same ones used in the top
line ,they will have the same names and the same reference nomenclature
when drawn in bottom.
When two or more components in parallel,each parallel path is called
branch.
In our diagram AND,OR logic has two branches,it is possible to exchange
branches 1and 2 without changing the way the lamps operate.

The branches can be arranged in any order without changing the way the
machine operates.
It allows the designer to group and organize the control circuitry so that it is
easier to understand and troubleshoot.

CR1 is energized when START pushbutton is pressed and CR1 remain ON,if
release START PB because power will flow through CR1 (NO) contact.
CR1 is de-energized when STOP PB is pressed.
Since we are assuming START PB not been pressed,there is no path for
power flow through the branch and it will be OFF.
 INVENTION OF PLC
 The first PLC systems evolved from conventional computers
in the early 1970 s. These first PLCs were installed in
automotive plants. Traditionally automotive plants had to be
shut down for a month to change the model .

 The PLC keyboard reprogramming procedure replaced

rewiring of panel full of wires, relays, counters and other
components. The new PLCs helped to reduce the
changeover time to a matter of few days.
 PLC DEFINITION

The Programmable Logic Controller is a solid state

equipment, designed to perform the function of logic
made for industrial control applications.
 INTRODUCTION OF PLC
The PLC acts as a total replacement for hardwired relay
logic with an effective reduction in wiring and panels.

 With the coming of microprocessor and associated peripheral chips

the whole process of control & automation went for a radical
change.

 Instead of achieving the desired control or automation through

physical wiring of control components, in PLC it is achieved
through a program or say software.

 As the desired logic control is achieved through a program, these

controllers are referred to a Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC).

 Types of PLC
Basically PLCs are two types.
 Brick type.
 Modular type.
BRICK TYPE
PLC is housed in a single box with all power supply,CPU,Inputs and out puts
& connection terminals.

These are generally chosen according to a available program memory and

required number of I/Os to suit he application.

This type of PLC generally has an expansion port. This type of PLC will have
limited I/Os.

These ports allow the addition of Digital Inputs/outputs or analog Inputs/

Outputs. These expansion units are either plugged directly or connected it
with ribbon cable.
 PLC Configurations
MODULAR TYPE
More sophisticated units,with a wider range of options,are MODULAR.

Modular type PLC can be connected consist following Modules.

 CPU (Central Processor Unit).
 I/O Rack.
 Power supply Module (PSU).
 Digital Input Module.
 Digital Output Module.
 Analog I/O Modules
 High speed counter Module.
Other type of modules may be available depending up on the manufacture of
the PLC.
Function of communication modules is transfer the data from one device to
another. One module allows the serial transfer of data to remote I/O modules
which is some feets away.

The RACK is a framework into which the Input/outputs modules

are inserted.
The size of the Rack depends on the number of slots ,such as 3,

Fundamentals of PLC Programming
 Symbols used in ladder logic.
 Rungs.
 Contacts and Coils.
 Symbols Used in Ladder Logic
A PLC takes input from field devices and based on the programming instructions
controls output devices.
Ladder logic diagrams are used in PLCs to write programming instructions below
figure illustrates a simple ladder diagram.

Input Rung Output

As shown in above figure,a ladder logic diagram consists of three elements.

 Input
 Output
 Rung
A ladder logic diagram consists of one or more horizontal lines,called RUNGS. The
rungs contain the input and output elements.In a ladder logic diagram,the input
elements referred as the contact and output element s referred as Coil.
 Rungs
The horizontal lines in a ladder logic diagram are called RUNGS.
Each Rung of a ladder logic diagram represents a condition of the input/output/
memory bits.

Each Rung ends with a coil and starts with a set of conditions.

The two vertical lines at the two end of the rungs are called rails and are
represented as L1 and L2.

These rails represents the voltage potential of the ladder diagram.

The below figure illustrates the rails and the rung of ladder logic diagram.
