PLC Training Assignments
Insctruction 2:
Design a DOL Starter of 5HP pump motor; when the motor starts, a safety valve should open.
Assignment 2:
1. Design a DOL Starter of Induction motor.
2. In a production plant, there are three motors each having capacity of 20KW. The supply
transformer is rated 30KVA. Install a PLC for the project such that only one motor will run at
a time. Whenever a second motor tries to switch ON, it should not be ON and therefore the
previous state should prevail.
Instruction 3:
Write PLC program and connection to drawing for Star-Delta.
Instruction 3:
Design a PLC ladder diagram for a two way traffic control system:
R1
Y1
G1
R2 Y2 G2
Consider the four signals Y1, G1, Y2 and G2. In these four signals, only one signal is to be ON at a
time. If we press any other signal, the previous signal should be OFF and the new signal will turn
ON.
The program for R1, R2 should be done when the program for Y1, G1, Y2 and G2 is over.
Assignment 3:
There are four diesel generators in a 24 hour run production factory. Each generator is rated
250KVA and the total demand for the plant is 600KVA. But at every six hour, a generator should
be sent to rest position for 2 hours. Now design a PLC diagram.
Instruction 4:
In a chemical factory, a product is manufactured by using four reagents step by step,
Motor M1 starts for 30s to fill up reagent A
Motor M2 starts for 20s to fill up reagent B
Motor M3 starts for 25s to fill up reagent C
Motor M4 starts for 15s to fill up reagent D
After that a reaction occurs for 15 sec to produce the chemical. When the chemical is produced,
a drain valve will open and it will pass through the drain.
Draw a PLC ladder diagram using a ‘Toggle Switch’. The sequence operation should only work if
the toggle switch is ON. The will repeatedly occur until the Toggle switch is made OFF.
Automate a seminar room with PLC. The maximum number of guests in the room is 10. There
are sensors in the entrance and exit paths. When the room is full, a motor will operate in the
forward direction for 10 sec to move a gate in the entrance path. When the number of guests
becomes less than 10, the motor will move in the reverse direction (another output) to open the
gate in the exit path.
