Hi im new to the forum and to PLCs. I am currently studying to a HNC at college and have a assignment I cant get my head around and was wondering if you could give me a few pointers.
The purpose of the assignment is to produce a report using the specifications below if a manager gave you a budget and the go ahead.
PLC power supply 240v at 50 Hz
No. of relay outputs 24 max rating 1mA each
No. of transistor, triac or thyristor outputs , 0
No. of contact closure inputs , 20
No. of three line proximity devices , 1
No. of analogue inputs , 1 0-10v dc
0 analogue outputs
interface with Rs232c or similar
memory 2k
scan time better than 50ms
has to be IP67 protected with external ambient temp 110'c
close to a high voltage source of magnetic interference and one output drives a contactor to switch a motor of 240v 20A , suggest contactor type and plc be able to control coil directly
I know there are probably lots of similar threads but i have done hours or searching and not done alot of work....
the output max of 1mA seems to be odd as 2A seems to be the norm and protecting to IP67 in a cooled enclosure so operating temp range is met..... HELP PLEASE
Thanks speds02
