PLCs are the brains behind many automated systems. When they are programmed and supported correctly, they help equipment run more consistently, safely, and efficiently.
What Is a PLC?
PLC stands for Programmable Logic Controller. A PLC is an industrial control device that tells equipment what to do based on programmed logic.
A PLC can receive information from sensors, switches, meters, buttons, or other devices. Then it can use that information to control equipment automatically.
A PLC may be used to:
Start or stop pumps
Open or close valves
Turn motors on or off
Monitor pressure, flow, or temperature
Trigger alarms
Control equipment sequences
Shut down equipment when unsafe conditions occur
Communicate with a SCADA system
Automate repetitive tasks
In simple terms, the PLC controls the equipment. The SCADA system, which we also can provide, allows people to monitor and interact with that equipment.
