OMRON's PLC-based Process Control

Posted by Xavier Labels: , , ,

"OMRON's PLC-based Process Control = Smart Monitor and Control"

General-purpose PLCs provide everything from simple loop control to advanced process control to meet customer needs

 

Omron has taken its wealth of technical know-how in factory automation and process control technology to create this PLC-based Process Control for Hybrid Process Control.

 

 

Omron's Analog Process Control 3 Key Features: Downsizing, Easy Engineering and High Reliability.

 

 

One-Stop Solution

 

Omron provides Built-in Loop Controller (BLC) - CJ1 Series CPU with built-in loop controller that is best-suited for small-scale sophisticated process control up to a maximum of 150 loops.

 

For a large-scale control process of 250 loops, Omron recommends Hybrid-Process System (HPS) - CS1 Series CS1W-LC[][]1.

 

Product solutions for Built-in Loop Control and also Hybrid Process System.

 

 

 

Built-in Loop Controller

 

Built-in Loop Controller combines the Sequence Control Engines and Loop Control Engine into one and integrated with the NS touch panel. A mini batch on control system can be released, and data trending and data logging can be viewed and monitored from the Touch Panel.

 

Easy integration using Built-in Loop Controller

 

 

Hybrid Process System

 

Omron Hybrid Process System combines the benefits of the PLC and the ease of programming of Distributed Control Systems (DCS) into one. With the benefits of the PLC, flexibility and scalability of the system can be realized. Besides that, with the ease of the sequencing programming for DCS, development of control becomes easier. Thus, the Hybrid Process System simplifies the design, planning and implementation, and reduces the engineering time.

 

To meet user needs, simple tools are provided to users for easier integration of GUI monitoring and control system.  Tags can be generated and use for GUI monitoring and control.

 

Omron provides CX-Process Monitor Plus, a simple monitoring and control software to simplify data trending and process control. With the integration of CX-Process Monitor Plus or SCADA and HMI, operation control and monitoring becomes simple, and complexity in maintenance is no longer an issue.

 

Interaction between CX-Process Monitor Plus with PLC, HMI and SCADA System.

 

For more controls, NS series touch panel and SCADA system can be integrated. For process control that requires redundancy system, Omron SYSMAC CS1D can be applied. With Hybrid Process System, a low-cost DCS system can be realized.

OMRON's Solution for Analog Process Control

Posted by Xavier Labels: , , ,

Omron provides a wide range of different products suitable for different analog process control, ranging from simple, single-loop control to complex, multiple-loop control.

 

This graph illustrates Omron analog process control product range from small system scale to large scale, versus simple functionality to advanced functionality.

 

Note: Click on the products for more details.

 

For applications which require simple distributed control, Omron's Temperature Controller and Digital Panel Meter will be able to fulfill your application needs.

 

For simple multiple-loop process, Modular Temperature Controller E5ZN will be able to control simple process up to 32 loops.

 

For sophisticated multiple-loop process, digital process controller E5[]R series and PLC-Based Process Controller will be most suitable for your application.

SIMATIC WinCC flexible Runtime- Software

Posted by Xavier Labels: , , ,

 

Function overview

With SIMATIC HMI operator control and monitoring devices, the runtime software is on-board and, depending on the equipment‘s hardware, this gives you different HMI functionality and performance profiles. The runtime functionality can be expanded using options.  Some of the options are only available for Panels of a specific class and above, others are integrated to a certain extent.

As an independant software product SIMATIC WinCC flexible Runtime offers all the options needed for PC based HMI:
  • Functionality of basic Runtime Softtware
    • Operator functions,
    • Graphics and trend representations,
    • Alarm system,
    • Report and logging system,
  • Functionality of Runtime options
    • Archiving ,
    • Recipe management ,
    • OPC communication
    • Sm@rtClient/server concepts
    • Service & Diagnostics across the Web
    • Logging and tracking of operator actions ,
    • Process diagnostics

Due to its individually scalable system functionality, with WinCC flexible you only pay for the functionality that you need to solve your current HMI task. You can also flexibly extend the runtime functionality at any time using Visual Basic scripts.

User interface

In WinCC flexible, the system carries out visualization by means of a Windows-conformant user interface that is composed of parameterizable screen objects and screens that you create on a project-specific basis:
  • Static text and graphics display as well as vector graphics
  • Graphics displays for different standard graphics formats, e.g. bmp, .jpg, .wmf 
  • Pushbuttons and switches for process operation 
  • Date/time fields 
  • Numeric and alphanumeric input/ output fields
  • Symbolic and graphic input/output fields
  • Dynamizable graphics from the SIMATIC HMI symbol library
  • Bar charts, analog display, sliders 
  • Trend graphics with paging and zoom functions and cursor line 
  • Alarm displays with operator controls 
  • Technological screen modules created from basic system objects

Alarms and logging system

Alarms and messages

The system generates messages in WinCC flexible in three ways:

  • Bit messages,
  • Analog messages
  • Messages via message frame alarm procedure Alarm_S/Alarm_D with SIMATIC S7

Using freely defi nable message classes, you can determine the acknowledgement response and the representation of the alarm events.

Logs/reports

In WinCC flexible, you can output logs or reports on a time- or event-driven basis. In this context, you can design the layout in any way you like.

 

User administration

Even the basic system guarantees access protection which means that only authorized personnel have access within the scope of their responsibility at the operator panel. In this context, each user is assigned to a user group with defined function privileges.
This prevents unauthorized users from changing recipes or starting process steps without permission, for example.
Apart from this,  two-component authorization comprising a user ID and password, password aging (to ensure that passwords are renewed on a regular basis), blocking users by the administrator and automatic logout if users are inactive for a relatively long period of time are additional system functions that ensure high quality standards in production.
 
With WinCC flexible 2008 new functions have been added:

  • Adjustable number of invalid login attempts
  • Optionally, the login can be reduced to just the password
  • Hierarchical authorizations among the administrators
  • Individual groups can be excluded from the password aging
  • Hidden password entry

Allen-Bradley SL500™

Posted by Xavier Labels: , , , , ,

Understanding the basic features of the SLC500™ (Small Logic Controller) in your facility will maximize your productivity. The SLC500 includes fault detection with built-in diagnostics. Understanding these features is critical to running an efficient operation.

Battery

A lithium battery retains the SLC500 memory. The battery is located in the Central Processing Unit (CPU) next to the power supply of the SLC500 rack. Replace the battery on an annual basis or if the low battery signal activates. The Besser part number for the battery is 113773F00BA.

Fuses

A fuse protects the SLC500 power supply and, if burned out, will cause the indicator light to turn off. The fuse will open due to an incoming power problem or a short condition within the power supply. Insure the replacement fuse is equivalent to the one being replaced. The fuse is a 3 amp time-delay – Besser part number 111847.

Memory Loss

A power surge or a low battery may result in memory loss. The CPU fault light will illuminate to indicate a problem. To restore the memory, turn the panel power OFF. Insert the Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM) into the socket of the CPU and restore the power. The SLC500 will automatically read the EEPROM into Random Access Memory (RAM) and go into RUN mode. The CPU RUN light will illuminate to indicate a successful transfer. Turn the power OFF and remove the EEPROM from the unit. Note: In the case of Besser Lithibar equipment, the EEPROM remains in the unit. If a memory loss occurs, power cycle the SLC500 and the unit will return to run mode.
