PLC Application Mixing Process

PLC Application Mixing Process .

Specification: PLC Application Mixing Process

• Clearly laid out trainer as basis for the use of a PLC in a process control application involving mixing processes
• Transparent mixing tank with 3 capacitive proximity switches to monitor the level
• 3 transparent measuring tanks, each with 2 capacitive proximity switches
• Metering from the 3 measuring tanks into the mixing tank via solenoid valves
• Mixing assisted by stirring machine in mixing tank
• Proximity switch signals processed by PLC via lab jack panel
• Control of the 8 solenoid valves, the pump and the agitator also by PLC via lab jack panel
• Capacitive proximity switches with adjustable sensitivity
• Closed water circuit with centrifugal pump and stainless steel storage tank
• Power supply to all components and to PLC by built-in power supply unit
