A temperature control system consists of four thermostats controlling heating units. The thermostat contacts are set to close at 50,60,70, 80 degrees F respectively. The PLC ladder logic program is to be designed so that at a temperature below 50 degrees F, three heaters are to be ON. Between 50 to 60, two heaters are to be ON. For 60 to 70, one heater has to be ON. Above 80, there is a safety shut-off for all three heaters in case one stays on due to malfunction. A master switch is to be used to turn the system ON and OFF. Prepare a typical PLC program for this control process.
A pump is to be used to fill two storage tanks. The operator from start/stop station manually starts pump. When the first tank is full, the control logic must be able to automatically stop flow to the first tank and direct flow to the second tank through the use of sensors and electric solenoid valves. When the second tank is full, the pump must shut down automatically. Indicator lamps are to be included to signal when each tank is full. Prepare a typical PLC ladder diagram and program for this control.
Help is greatly appreciated.
