Introduction

Training course introducion / brief

This course has been developed to give participants an understanding of programmable Logic Controllers (PLC’s) systems and their applications in Industrial Automation Systems (IAS) extensively within the Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Power Generation, Water/Waste Water Treatments, Pharmaceutical, Food and beverage, Transportation, Pulp and Paper and other Process Industries. The course will cover in details fundamental principles, architectures and definitions of the PLC’s and their connectivity with different known electric and automation control system components.

In additional, a detailed discussion of PLC’s hardware structure components, I/O modules, intelligent modules, communication protocols, installation, maintenance & Troubleshooting. The course also includes a study of the PLC’s basic programming languages (Function Block Diagram, Ladder, Statement List and the key software Tools), basic programming instructions, configuration of the application program, Uploading & Downloading of the application program, testing, monitoring, modifications and troubleshooting of the application program etc.

Evaluate the suitability and application of current in-house Siemens S7 PLC systems and offer guidance and advise on whether such systems may be modified or improved, consequently
Will be able to leverage his skills to potentially cause an increase within the plant or process in terms of overall productivity and efficiency through analysis of current systems,
Will be better equipped to advise on new system installations in terms of evaluating choices between different industrial automation systems.
