PLC based ignition system which controls the ignition of Oil and Gas fired appliances provides Levels of safety, reliability and stability, is developed. The brain of the system is programmablelogic Controller (PLC). The control module provides multilevel component fault detection, tolerance in critical areas such as in flame sensing and valve control circuits. The control module is designed for reliable operation far beyond normal appliances life. The program minimizes shutdowns by providing recycle under certain conditions to establish normal operation before checking out. Timer provides precise timing for ignition, flame failure. On-line timer, remote flame sensor are the advantages of the system. The facility of Input/Output force on, force off, monitoring the inputs and outputs are the advantages of the system. The facility of Input/Output are also provided. Finally this system is factory programmable to provide different warm up time for ignitor system.

An engine plant architecture is developed by DaimlerChrysler and two Schneider Electric units, Square D and Schneider Automation. For this facility, DaimlerChrysler insisted vendors to conform with a standard, station-level automation specification, each station stands alone, with its own PLC, motion devices, general industrial controls, and human machine interface in a cabinet mounted at the station. The specification covers control component brands and models, programming standards, and networking methods between stations, machines, lines, and other equipment.

Material Systems Engineers (MSE) designed a hopper slide gate system to handle the mechanics of the dynamic control problem of treating, transporting, and disposing of municipal waste in the East Bay Municipal Utility District sewage treatment plant. MSE partnered with systems integrator DST Controls to develop the model-free adaptive control package required to accurately track, and control the dispatch of, this inconsistent blend of liquid and solid hazardous materials. basic control requirements included establishing communications between district's Westinghouse distributed control system and DST's PLC system, achieving the load-out setpoints by integrating measured net hopper weight changes with inferred hopper refill rates.

This paper introduces a novel design scheme which utilizes a programmablelogic controller (PLC) network-based, computer distributed control system for the automation of a practical manufacturing process. Part of this system is modelled as a multi-product batching processing machine(BPM) which can process a batch of jobs simultaneously with a known and fixed number of jobs and their ready time. The optimal scheduling objective is that the different jobs are dispatched and sequenced in order to minimize the makespan and maximize the utilization of the BPM, it leads to a NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem. We apply genetic algorithms to solve this scheduling problem, and an optimal solution is obtained for a practical case study. The genetic algorithms approach demons (rates effectiveness, efficiency and robustness. The paper thus shows that computer distributed control plus evolutionary scheduling algorithms make the manufacturing system more 'intelligent' and 'flexible'.

programmable logic controllers (PLC) are a solid foundation for pipeline automation. It is a technology that started out in simple discrete applications and has evolved into reliable multi-function unit and station control systems. The PLC has proven itself reliable for oil and gas pipeline station SCADA and control system, in addition to unit controls for reciprocating engines and gas turbines.

The PLC industry finds itself in the center of attention and controversy. As technological competitor to the PC-based control market, PLC manufacturers are having to fend off the onslaught of PC-based developments with every bit of savvy and know-how they can muster. Certain software manufacturers have even gone so far as to predict the death of PLCs. Conversely, talk to a few PLCC manufacturers and they expect their market to be strong well into the next decade.

An open network is a method of serial communication. Specifically, open bus networks allow equipment from different manufacturers to be used on the same serial communication scheme, allowing original equipment manufacturers and end users the flexibility to add, replace or substitute components for performance, reliability or availability purposes. These open bus networks are replacing discrete wiring and proprietary networks in all industries, and a wide selection of products are available from many manufacturers.

Despite the inroads PCs have made in the industry, programmable logic controllers (PLC) remains the control workhorse. IEC 61131-3 is the standard that keeps the ubiquitous PLC effective and flexible through the availability of a variety of programming tools. The changes from the first edition of the standard to the second are presented. The strengths and weaknesses of the standard are discussed.

The capabilities of programmable logic controllers (PLC) and weight controllers are maximized and costs are reduced when a strong bidirectional interface is used. The PLC is capable of performing a variety of tasks, but a wiser solution is to offload some functions to a dedicated weight controller. The basics of a good process weighing system cannot be ignored, but placement of weight control and decision responsibility will definitely affect the results.

The article takes as a starting point the consolidated necessity to verify, in quantitative terms, the reliability and safety levels characteristic of the programmablelogic central devices. An original methodology for the analysis of the above-mentioned characteristics in here illustrated;these properties are guaranteed in a strongly innovative way in comparison with the traditional systems. The article finally presents the results of a compared experimental application of this methodology to a programmablelogic central device and a relay apparatus.
