AIM: Introduction to FATEK PLC panel.

EXPERIMENT-3
AIM: Design a ladder logic diagram for Implementation of logic gates using PLC.
Theory:
AND Gate:
As per the truth table we can see that output is high only when both the inputs are
high.
To implement this circuit we use two NORMALLY OPEN contacts.

EXPERIMENT 4
Aim: Operate a double acting cylinder using 5/2 solenoid valve.

EXPERIMENT 5
Aim: : Design a ladder logic diagram for the following process: There is a gate.
When a person pushes the push button the gate opens and a lamp switches ON
inside the garage. When the car enters the garage light turns OFF and the gate
closes.
Theory:
List of Inputs:

PUSH BUTTON----%I0.0
SENSOR---%I0.1

List of outputs

Motor---Q0.0
Lamp---Q0.1

Memory Used--- %M0.0

If push button is pressed then lamp will be turned ON and motor(door) will move
Clockwise.
When sensor is activated the lamp will be turned OFF and motor will run AntiClockwise.

EXPERIMENT 6
Aim: Operate a single acting cylinder using 5/2 solenoid valve.

EXPERIMENT 7
Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram to generate a square wave with TOFF
=TON=5sec, repeat for TOFF =3 sec TON=5sec.
Theory:
Input Used:
Start button ---- %I0.0
Output Used:
Bulb --- %Q0.0
Timer Used:
TON ---- 5 sec
TOFF---- 5sec

EXPERIMENT 8
Aim: Operate of single acting cylinder using 4/2 solenoid valve.

EXPERIMENT 9

Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram that can be used to start a motor after a delay
of 100s, then start a pump when motor is switched OFF, then delay of 10 s before
pump is switched off.
THEORY:

EXPERIMENT 10
Aim: Movement of cylinder and hydraulic motor using 4/2 and 4/3 double solenoid
valve.

EXPERIMENT 11

Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram for liquid level problem. There are two sensors.
One is low level sensor and the other is high level sensor. When water reaches lower
than the low level sensor motor is turned ON and when it reaches higher than high
level sensor water is turned OFF. If water level is below high level sensor, but higher
than the low sensor, motor it remains in the last state.

EXPERIMENT 12
Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram for domestic washing machine, to switch ON a
pump , to pump water for 100 s into the machine then switch ON a heater for 10 s
to heat water. Another pump is used to drain water from the machine in after the
next 100 s.

EXPERIMENT 13
Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram for the following: There are 2 Push Buttons.
When first switches ON, red light will glow and when second switches ON , green
light will glow. If both the switches are pressed together none of the light glows.

EXPERIMENT 14
Aim: Design a ladder logic diagram to switch ON and OFF an output using a single
PUSH button.

EXPERIMENT 15
Aim: There is a chemical VAT in which a mixture must be cooked at temperature
greater than 100 degrees for 10 min. Due to external influence temperature might
fall below 100 degrees periodically and this should not be counted in the cooking
time. After VAT is filled ,a smart P.B. starts the cooking, a thermal watch goes high
when the temperature is above 100 degree Celsius. When the mixture has been
cooked for 10 minutes then heater should be turned OFF and drains valves OPEN.
Design a ladder logic diagram to achieve this.

EXPERIMENT 16
Aim: Design a ladder logic program in which counter is used to count objects in
conveyer system.
Show how counter should be set up to count 200 objects and then turn OFF
conveyer motor.
What is maximum conveyer speed to assure that no object will be missed in count if
objects are at least 1 cm apart and the PLC scan time is 30 ms?
