Introduction
Advantages of PLC :
They are fast and designed for the rugged industrial environment.
They are attractive on Cost-Per-Point Basis.
These Devices are less Proprietary ( E.g.. Using Open Bus Interface.)
These Systems are upgraded to add more Intelligence and Capabilities
with dedicated PID and Ethernet Modules.
Disadvantages of PLC :
PLC were Designed for Relay Logic Ladder and have Difficulty with
some Smart Devices.
To maximize PLC performance and Flexibility, a number of Optional
Modules must be added
Nano (Small)
Micro (Medium)
Large

These modules act as link between the CPU and the output
devices in the field.
Analog output module : Typical output from these modules
is 4-20 mA, 0-10 V
Ex : Control Valve, Speed, Vibration
Digital output module : Typical output from these modules is
24 V DC, 115 V AC, 230 V AC
Ex. : Solenoid Valves, lamps, Actuators, dampers, Pump
valve on off control
120 V ac
