INTRODUCTION
Simplification of engineering and precise control of manufacturingprocess can result in significant cost savings. The most cost-effective way, which
can pay big dividends in the long run, is flexible automation; a planned approach
towards integrated control systems. It requires a conscious effort on the part of
plant managers to identify areas where automation can result in betterdeployment/utilization of human resources and savings in man-hours, down time.
Automation need not be high ended and too sophisticated; it is the phased, step-
by-step effort to automate, employing control systems tailored to ones specificrequirements that achieves the most attractive results. That is where Industrial
electronics has been a breakthrough in the field of automation and control
techniques.
ROLE OF ELECTRONICS IN AUTOMATION
A constant demand for better and more efficient manufacturing andprocess machinery has led to the requirement for higher quality and reliability in
control techniques. With the availability of intelligent, compact solid stateelectronic devices, it has been possible to provide control systems that can reduce
maintenance, down time and improve productivity to a great extend. By installing
efficient and user friendly industrial electronics systems for manufacturingmachinery or processors, one can obtain a precise, reliable and prolific means for
generating quality products.
Considering the varied demand and increasing competition, one has toprovide for flexible manufacturing process. One of the latest techniques in solid
state controls that offers flexible and efficient operation to the user is
PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLERS. The basic idea behind theseprogrammable controllers was to provide means to eliminate high cost associatedwith inflexible, conventional relay controlled systems. Programmable controllers
offer a system with computer flexibility:
1. Suited to withstand the industrial environment
2. Has simplicity of operation

3. Maintenance by plant technicians and
4. Reduce machine down time and provide expandability for future.
DEFINATION OF PLC
A Programmable controller is a solid state user programmable control system
with functions to control logic, sequencing, timing, arithmetic data manipulation and
counting capabilities. It can be viewed as an industrial computer that has a centralprocessor unit, memory, input output interface and a programming device. The central
processing unit provides the intelligence of the controller. It accepts data, status
information from various sensing devices like limit switches, proximity switches,
executes the user control program store in the memory and gives appropriate outputcommands to devices like solenoid valves, switches etc.
Input output interface is the communication link between field devices and the
controllers; field devices are wired to the I/O interfaces. Through these interfaces theprocessor can sense and measure physical quantities regarding a machine or process, such
as, proximity, position, motion, level, temperature, pressure, etc. Based on status sensed,
the CPU issues command to output devices such as valves, motors, alarms, etc.Programmer unit provides the man machine interface. It is used to enter the application
program, which often uses a simple user-friendly logic.
BENEFITS OF PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLERS
1. Programmable controllers are made of solid state components and hence
provide high reliability.
2. They are flexible and changes in sequence of operation can easily beincorporated due to programmability. They may be modular in nature and
thus expandability and easy installation is possible.
3. Use of PLC results in appreciable savings in Hardware and wiring cost.
4. They are compact and occupy less space.

5. Eliminate hardware items like Timers, counters and Auxiliary relays. The
presence for timers and counters has easy accessibility.
6. PLC can control a variety of devices and eliminates the need for
customized controls.
7. Easy diagnostic facilities are provided as a part of the system. Diagnosis
of the external systems also becomes very simple. Thus easy
service/maintenance.

Chapter 2
PLC ARCHITECTURE
PLCs contain three basic sections:
1. Central processing unit (CPU).
2. Memory: EPROM, RAM, and so on.
3. Input/output section for communication with peripherals (ADC, DAC).
A PLC is basically a black box with a number of inputs from, and a number of
outputs to, the outside world. It can make decisions, store data, do timing cycles, do
simple arithmetic, convert codes, and so on. The basic difference between this blackbox and a hardware logic system using IC chips or a relay controlled system, is that
specific coded messages are stored in areas called program memory, which arePROM or ROM and RAM chips. It is, however, much easier to change a programwhen a different process is required than to rewire the control system. For example,
it may take electricians a couple of weeks to require a pipe mill, whereas a
programmer will spend only a fraction of this time to reprogram a PLC since no wireswill have to be changed. In addition, various recipes can be stored in memory and
accessed when required, making the program extremely flexible.
The system operates through interaction with the processor and program memory.
When the power to the system is turned on, the processor reads the first instructionstored in memory and acts on this instruction. When completed, it goes back to the
memory for the next instruction, and so on until task is complete. This operation is
called the fetch-execute cycle. The processor communicates with the outside worldvia input and output modules.
THE PARTS OF A PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER
Programmable logic controllers (PLC) can be considered to have three parts:
1. Input/output Section
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
7/44
The I/O section contains input modules and output modules. Functionally, the input
modules are equivalent to the signal converters (i.e. Analog to Digital or high power tolow power). All modern PLC input modules use optical devices to accomplish
electrically isolated coupling between the input circuit and the processor electronics.
Each input device is wired to a particular input terminal on the I/O section. Thus if theswitch is closed, 5v dc appears on input terminal, converts this dc voltage to a digital 1
and sends it to the processor via programmable peripheral interface (PPI). Conversely, if
the switch is open, no dc voltage appears on input terminal. Input section will respond tothis condition by sending a digital 0 to the processor. The other input terminals behave
identically.
The Processor
The processor of a PLC holds and executes the user program. In order to carry out
this job, the processor must store the most up-to-date input and output conditions.
(a) Input image table:
The input conditions are stored in the input image table, which is a portion of the
processors memory. That is, every single input module in the I/O section has assigned
to it a particular location within the input image table. That particular location is
dedicated solely to the task of keeping track of the latest condition of its input terminal.As mentioned in earlier section, if the input terminal has 5v dc power fed to it by its input
device, the location within the input image table contains a binary 1(HI); if the input
terminal has no 5v dc power fed to it, the location contains a binary 0(LO).The processor needs to know the latest input conditions because the user program
instructions are contingent upon those conditions. In other words, an individual
instruction may have one outcome if a particular input is HI and a different outcome ifthat input is LO.
Output image table:
The output conditions are stored in the output image table, which is another portion of
the processors memory. The output image table bears the same relation to the outputinterface of the I/O section that while terminals are analog inputs. You can directly
connect any analog input to the processor via these terminals. Analog signal from these
terminals is first converted to digital value via programmable peripheral interface (PPI).
The I/O sections output modules are functionally the same as the output amplifiers.They receive a low power digital signal from the processor and convert it into a high
power signal capable of driving an industrial load. A modern PLC output module is
optically isolated, and uses a triac, power transistor or relay as the series connected loadcontrolling device. Terminal 1 to 8 are these type of O/P terminals whereas terminal D/A
is Analog output terminal from processor. Each output device is wired to a particular
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
8/44
output terminal on the I/O interface. Thus, for example, if output module 1 receives a
digital 1 by applying 5v dc to output terminal 1, thereby illuminating LED is
extinguished.Besides 5v dc (TTL devices), I/O module are also for interfacing to other industrial
levels, including 12v dc.
The input image table bears to the input modules. That is, every single output modulehas assigned to it a particular memory location is dedicated solely to the task of keeping
track of the latest condition of its output module.
Of course, the output situation differs from the input situation with regard to the directionof information flow is from the output image table to the output modules, while in the
input situation the information flow is from the input modules to the input image table.
The locations within the input and output image tables are identified by addresses, which
refers to unique address of each terminal.
(c) Central processing unit:
The subsection of the processor that actually performs the program execution willbe called the central processing unit (CPU) with reference to input and output image table
CPU executes the user program and continuously updates the output image table.The output image table has a dual nature; its first function is to receive immediate
information from the CPU and pass if on to the output modules of the I/O section; but
secondly, it also must be capable of passing output information backward to the CPU,when the user program instruction that the CPU is working on calls for an item of output
information. The input image table does not have its dual nature. Its single mission is to
acquire information from the input modules and pass that information forward to theCPU when the instruction that the CPU is working on calls for an item of input
information.
User program memory:
A particular portion of the processors memory is used for storing the user programinstructions. We will use the name user program memory to refer to this processor
subsection.
Before a PLC can begin controlling an industrial system, a human user must enter thecoded instructions that make up the user program. This procedure called programming
the PLC.
As the user enters instructions, they are automatically stored at sequential locationswithin the user program memory. This sequential placement of program instructions is
self-regulated by the PLC, with no discretion needed by the human user.
The total number of instructions in the user program can range from a half dozen or
so, for controlling a simple machine, to several thousand, for controlling a complexmachine or process.
After the programming procedure is complete, the human user manually switches the
PLC out to PROGRAM mode into RUN mode, which causes the CPU to start executingthe program from beginning to end repeatedly.
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
9/44
The complete scan cycle:
As long as the PLC is left in the RUN mode, the processor executes the user programover and over again. Figure depicts the entire repetitive series of events. Beginning at
the top of the circle representing the scan cycle, the first operation is the input scan.
During the input scan, the current status of every input module is stored in the inputimage table, bringing it up to date.
Following the input scan, the processor enters its user program execution. Sometimes
called program scan. The program executes with reference to input and output image
tables and updates output image table.Throughout the user program execution, the processor continuously keeps its output
image table up to date, as stated earlier. However, the output modules themselves are not
kept continuously up to date. Instead, the entire output image table is transferred to theoutput module during the output scan following the program execution.
(d) Data Memory:
A PLC is a computer, after all. Therefore, it can perform arithmetic, numeric
comparisons, counting, etc. Naturally the numbers and data can change from one scan
cycle to the next. Therefore the PLC must have a section of its memory set aside forkeeping track of variable data, or numbers, that are involved with the user program. This
section of memory we will call data memory.
When the CPU is executing an instruction for which a certain data value must beknown, that data value is brought in from data memory. When the CPU executes an
instruction that provides a numerical result, that result is put out into data memory. Thus,
CPU can read from or write to the data memory. Understand that this relationship isdifferent from the relationship between the CPU and the user program memory. When
the user program is executing, the CPU can only reads from the user program memory,never write to it.
(e) Operating System of PLC:
The function of the operating system is to present the user with the equivalent of anextended machine or virtual machine that is easier to program than the underlying
hardware.
Due to this operating system, PLC is very easy to program. It can be programmedusing electrical schemes with familiar relay symbols so that a plant electrician can easily
access the PLC. Even though he does not know the assembly language or even if he may
not have any familiarity with computers and electronics, he will be able to program thePLC.
The function of PLC Operating system is:
1. Loads the user program from programming device to program memory.
2. To read status of input devices.
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report

3. To execute user program.
4. To form and update input image table.
5. As per the status of output image table controls the output devices.
6. To provide user-friendly functions.
This O.S. makes supervision over entire system, so O.S. programs are said torunning in supervisory mode.
When the user completely enters his program in user memory, he transfers control
from PROGRAM mode to RUN mode. In RUN mode the control of the whole system is
transferred to operating system. Now operating system takes care of the whole systemsuch that the whole system becomes automatic and appears as magic to users.

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
1. Microcontroller:
Here we are using 89c51 microcontroller, which has one full duplex serial datareceiver/transmitter, which is used for serial communication having interface with
ICL232 chip.It has also two 16 bits timer/counter namely T0 and T1 which are used for timer and
counter applications. Timer T1 is used to set baud rate for serial communication in
program mode.
2. Memory:
The system consist of four types of memory:
a. 4k of EEPROM which is internal to 89c51 microcontroller. This memory isused to store the operating system. It has address from 0000h to 0fffh. It canonly be accessed when the external access pin of controller is connected to
+5v. In our system this pin is permanently connected with +5v so external
program memory is accessed only when the address is beyond 0fffh.
b. 8k of RAM which is used as data memory. The CPU can read data from and
write data into this memory. This memory has address from 0000h to 1fffh.
c. 8k of RAM which is used as data memory as well as program memory. The
CPU can write program codes in and read program codes from this memory.
This memory has address from 2000h to 3fffh.
d. 8k of EEPROM, which is used as, program memory. The subroutines, which
are helpful in executing the main program, are stored here. This memory haslocation from 4000h to 5fffh.
3. Programmable Peripheral Interface(PPI):
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
14/44
Here two 8255 are used as PPI. One is used to control the ADC and DAC, while
other is used for Input/output interface. The addresses for the 8255 used to control ADC
and DAC are:
Port A: 6000h
Port B: 6001h
Port C: 6002h
Control Word: 6003h
The addresses for the 8255 used for Input/output interfaces are:
Port A: 8000h
Port B: 8001h
Port C: 8002h
Control Word: 8003h
4. Analog to Digital Converter(ADC):
Here ADC0809 is used as an 8 bit ADC. 8255 whose addresses are 6xxxh is used togive control signals to this ADC. The port pins of 8255 are connected with the control
pins of ADC as shown below:
8255 Pins ADC Pins
PB0 ADD0 (A)
PB1 ADD1 (B)
PB2 ADD2 (C)
PB3 STC (Start of Conversion)
PB4 OE (Output Enable)
PC7 EOC (End of Conversion)
Note: Here PB4 is connected to OE pin of ADC through NOT Gate. So we have to give
negative pulse by pin PB4 to pin OE to give Output Enable.
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
15/44
This ADC is used to convert the real world analog data into digital form.
5. Digital to Analog Converter (DAC):
Here the only control signal is Start of Conversion, which is connected with PC0 of
8255 having address 6xxxh. For converting the digital data to analog form first makePC0 low and then put digital data on port0 of 89c51. Now make PC0 high.
This particular part of the system is idle in our application, but it is kept for future
expansion.
6. Serial Communication:
Here in-built transmitter/receiver of 89c51 is used for serial communication inconjunction with chip ICL232. Here the transmitter/receiver is of asynchronous type
(UART). So the data is communicated byte by byte. The UART is working in serialcommunication mode 1. So the timer T1 is used to set the baud rate. The baud rate is set
to 2400.
7. Switches and Indicators:
Switches:
a. Power ON/OFF switch.
b. Reset Switch.
c. Program/Run mode Switch.
Indicators:
a. Power ON/OFF LED(red)
b. Reset LED(red)
c. Program mode LED(orange)

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
This chapter explains how to program the PLC. It describes how to write a
program, how the program is structured and representation of the programming language.
Writing a Program:
A control program specifies a series of operations that tell the programmable controller
how it has to control a system. For example, a control program might be the series ofoperations that tell the PLC how to use open loop control or close loop control for a
specific system. We must write the program in a specific programming language andaccording to some specific rules so that the programmable controller can understand it.
Method of Representation:
The following methods of representation are possible to program PLC.
1. Statement List (STL):
STL represents the program as a sequence of operation mnemonics. A statement has the
following format:
A I 04
Where A represents AND operation,
I represent INPUT and
04 represent ADDRESS of INPUT.
2. Control System Flowchart(CSF):
CSF represents logic operations with graphics symbols.
3. Ladder Diagram(LAD):
LAD graphically represents control functions with circuit diagram symbols.

1 or during timer is running.
This is for timer 0 if we use timer 1 then T 01 will remain 0 during the timerrun and normally ON T 03 will remain 1 during timer run.
Counter Operation:

If both the inputs I 04 and I 05 are 1 then only counter 0 is activated. 10 in
third instruction represent the count of the counter. The output U 01 becomes 1 if inputI 06 is 1 or count of the counter becomes 0.
Same applies for counter in normally ON and normally OFF mode as in case of
timer.

Wait till the message PROGRAM IS TRANSMITTED
SUCCESSFULLY.
Switch the PLC in RUN mode by changing the switch on RUN mode and
then press RESET switch. Confirm the GREEN LED indicating the RUN
mode is ON.
If one of the four FAULT LEDs is ON then check the reason and again
load whole of the program and repeat the above mentioned procedure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If POWER ON LED (red) is OFF after switch ON the power, check theFUSE. If blown then replace it.
If FAULT LED (red) is ON then A or O operand might have been
missing in start of instruction.i.e. A I 04
I 04
Correct it in the control program and again load the program.
If FAULT LED (green) is ON then I or C or T or U operandmight have been missing in instruction.
i.e. A I 05
A 05
Correct it in the control program and again load the program.

SOFTWARE ANALYSIS
The higher-level language program on PC side converts the control program
written in STL language into specific hex codes and transmits these codes to the PLC.
The codes are stored in RAM location in PLC.
-
8/4/2019 Rohit Sir Project Report
31/44
The lower-level language program, which is stored in EEPROM internal to the
controller, reads hex codes from memory location one by one. It compares the code read
from the memory location with the predefined hex code and executes the instruction withaccordance to it.
As soon as we put the PLC in RUN mod, it reads the status of all the I/P. It storesthe status in bit addressable memory location as 1 or 0 depends upon the status. Now
it runs the program and performs operation on the status bit directed as user program. It
stores the result in another bit addressable memory location which are corresponds to theO/P. After this it updates all the O/P.
The Flow chart of the ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE program is given below:

SCOPE FOR FUTURE EXPANSION
At present in our system we have 4 digital inputs and 4 digital outputswhich are interfaced with CPU through port C of 8255 having address 8xxxh.
The port A and port B are not presently taken in use. By using these ports we can
expand digital inputs and outputs upto 8 digital inputs and outputs.
Two memory slots of 8k each are not in present use. One of these slotscan be used for RAM and another one can be used for EEPROM. Using these
slots we can get more 8k of DATA memory using RAM and more 8k of
PROGRAM memory using EEPROM.
Interfacing of DAC is provided on the PLC board, which can be used to
give an analog output.
We can construct signal-conditioning circuit so we can directly connectthe transducers like PT100, thermocouple, LVDT etc.
We can further construct PID controller module which can be switched
ON or OFF by this PLC so we can control systems using continuous controller indigital fashion.
We can also design stepper motor controller, which can be interfaced withPLC.
Using chip 8279 we can provide keyboard and display facility on PLCboard.

APPLICATIONS OF PLC
In the present industrial world, a flexible system that can be controlled by user atsite is preferred. Systems, whose logic can be modified but still, used without disturbing
its connection to external world, is achieved by PLC. Utilizing the industrial sensors
such as limit switches, ON-OFF switches, timer contact, counter contact etc., PLCcontrols the total system. The drive to the solenoid valves, motors, indicators,
enunciators, etc are controlled by the PLCs.
The above said controlling elements (normally called as inputs of PLCs) andcontrolled elements (called as outputs of PLCs) exist abundantly in any industry. These
inputs, outputs, timers, counters, auxiliary contacts are integral parts of all industries. As
such, it is difficult to define where a PLC cannot be used.Proper application of a PLC begins with conversion of information into convenient
parameters to save money, time and effort and hence easy operation in plants and
laboratories.
The areas where PLC is used maximum are as follows:
1. The batch processes in chemical, cement, food and paper industries which
are sequential in nature, requiring time of event based decisions iscontrolled by PLCs.
2. In large process plants PLCs are being increasingly used for automatic
start up and shut down of critical equipment. A PLC ensures that
equipment cannot be started unless all the permissive conditions for safe
start have seen established. It also monitors the conditions necessary forsafe running of the equipment and trips the equipment whenever any
abnormality in the system is detected.
3. The PLC can be programmed to function as an energy management
system for boiler control for maximum efficiency and safety.
4. In automation of blender reclaimers
5. In automation of bulk material handling system at ports.
6. In automation for a ship unloader.

9. In automation of brick moulding press in refractories.
10. In automation for galvanizing unit.
11. For chemical plants process control automation.
12. In automation of a rock phosphate drying and grinding system.
13. Modernization of boiler and turbogenerator set.
14. Process visualization for mining application.
15. Criteria display system for power station.
16. As stored programmed automation unit for the operation of dieselgenerator sets.
17. In Dairy automation and food processing.
18. For a highly modernized pulp paper factory.
19. In automation system for the printing industry.
20. In automation of container transfer crane.
21. In automation of High-speed elevators.
22. In plastic moulding process.
23. In automation of machine tools and transfer lines.
24. In Mixing operations and automation of packaging plants.
25. In compressed air plants and gas handling plants.
26. In fuel oil processing plants and water classification plants.
27. To control the conveyor/classifying system.

Thus PLC is ideal for application where plant machine interlock requirements are
finalized at a later stage and need changes during engineering trial runs, commissioning
or normal use. It can be used extensively to replace conventional relay controls in powerstations, refineries, cement, steel, fertilizer, petrochemical, chemical industries etc.
Applications can thus be extended from monitoring to supervision, control and
management.
FUTURE OF PLCs
The PLC offers a compromise between advance control techniques and present day
technology. It is extremely difficult to forecast the rate and form of progress of PLCs,
but there is strong evidence that development is both rapid and cumulative. Though a
PLC is not designed to replace a computer, it is useful and cost effective for mediumsized control systems. With the capability of functioning as local controllers in
distributed control systems. PLCs will retain their application in large process plants.
A further development of PLCs leads to the development of programmable function
controller (PFC) is compatible to PCs and directly controls the desired functions.
In India every process industry is replacing relay control systems by PLCs and will go
for PFCs in near future. In the near future every flats and offices may possess PFCs to
control room temperature, as elevator controller, maintain water tank levels, as smalltelephone exchange etc.

Automatic mixing system
Valve A Agitator
Float switch 1
Valve B
Float switch 2
Problem:
In figure when START button is pressed, solenoid valve A is energized and a
batch of liquid is entered in tank. Float switch 1 detects the upper limit of liquid of liquidlevel and Float switch 2 detects the lower limit of liquid. As, tank begins to fill, Switch 2
closes. When the tank is full, switch 1 shuts off the solenoid valve A and start agitator to
mix the liquid. The Agitator mixes the liquid for 30 seconds and shuts off. When the
Agitator turn off, solenoid valve B is energized to drain the liquid. After the tank has
been emptied, float switch 2 opens and solenoid B shuts off.
The Addresses of I/P and O/P are given below.

Explanation of Ladder Diagram:
In first rung the stop switch is connected in series with start switch to
activate the control relay. The stop switch is normally close type where as start switch is
normally open type. So when the start switch is pressed control relay is activated. Thestart switch is push to on type so normally on contact of control relay is used to latch.
In second rung the NC contact of float switch 1 and NO contact of control relay is
in series with valve A. When start switch is pressed and the liquid level is below floatswitch 1 the valve A is opened and it is closed when level touches the float switch 1.The
NC contact of float switch 2 is latched by the NO contact of valve A so valve A does not
opened as soon as the level falls below the float switch 1 level and remain close till thetank is fully emptied.
In third rung the normally open contact of float switch 1is connected in series
with timer so when liquid level reaches to float switch 1, the timer is started.

In fourth rung the NC contact of timer DN bit is connected in series with NO
contact of float switch 1 to Agitator motor. When liquid level is at float switch 1and the
timer is running the motor is turned on.In fifth rung The NO contact of float switch 2 is connected in series with NO DN
bit of timer. So when the liquid level is above the float switch 2 and timer turned off the
valve B is opened.
