why we take 4 to 20 mA as out put of every instrument like
pressure transmittre ?why we cant take 0 to 20mA as output?

Answer Posted / guhan

AS PER OHMS LAW V=IR...WE R USING THE SIGNAL IN DCS 1 TO 5 VOLTAGE DC..SO WE KNOW THE RESISTANCE VALUE 250 OHMS...OK
VOLTAGE=1,2,3,4,5,V DC..RESISTANCE S 250 OHMS...FIRST STEP S VOL=1 V, R= 250, SO V=IR, 1=I*250,I=1VDC/250 OHMS...SO 1000MA/250 = 4 MA..( HERE 1 V DC S = 1000MA) ...SAME LIKE 2V S 8 MA,3 VOLS S 12 MA, 4 VOL 16 MA, 5 VOL 20 MA....THAT S WHY WE USE 4 TO 20 MA...

Im having problems with interfase betwen SPI v7.0 and SPPID v5.05. Previous versions of Intools shoul be fixed with SPPIDproj.ocx file. It was necessary to replace this file with one that allows the connection between different versions of SPPID. It is necessary in the current version to do the same?Thanks

A PLC is programmed to drive three motors A, B and C as follows : After running motor A for an hour, motor B should get ON and motor A should get OFF. And after running motor B for an hour, motor C should get ON and motor B should get OFF. And after running motor C for an hour, motor A should get ON and motor C should get OFF. (That is, a cyclic repetition with time period one hour) Now, the second condition is: If any motor gone faulty and is tripped, the consecutive motor should get ON and the faulty (tripped) motor should be eliminated from cyclic repetition. The remaining two motors should bear the cyclic repetition of one hour each. (For healthy motor take logic as high and for tripped motor take logic as low) Now, the third condition is: When motor A load(Amps) exceeds 60% of its rated load, motor B should get ON in parallel to motor A. And when both motors A & B are running in parallel, and if their load exceeds 60% of their rated load, motor C should also start in parallel to A & B. [Here the cyclic repetition is eliminated, until their loads become normal(40%)] [Take logic high(1) for load at 60% and logic low(0) for load at 40%] Now draw a flow chart or a ladder diagram to fulfill the above condition.
