Description
MasterLogic Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a modular, scalable rack-based industrial controller delivering powerful performance in a control application.
It is applied in various processing applications in industries such as oil and gas, steel, cement, power, food and beverage and delivers a blend of power, performance and efficiency.
What Is It?
MasterLogic PLC is a pocket-sized industrial logic controller powered by a high-speed processor. It can operate in a standalone manner, in a peer-to-peer environment, or in a SCADA topology with Experion® HS. It features a wide range of components (the CPU, power supplies, discrete and analog, I/O modules, network modules, and racks) which are available in different modules to suit many different applications.
How Does It Work?
MasterLogic PLC takes information from various sensors and uses it to control different machines. A reliable processor makes it intrinsically powerful, and all program instructions are executed at a high speed of 42 ns/step. A dedicated Ethernet-based I/O bus controller supplements the main processor in I/O refresh to achieve high speed scanning, and its redundancy feature ensure high availability, especially for critical applications. Available with standard functions, it also supports creation of new or user-defined functions. It works in a loop-based, user-defined program where it waits for input and output at predefined intervals, and can perform self-diagnostics for system errors and trouble shooting. Built on open network standards, this programmable logic controller is integrated with the Experion platform.
What Problems Does It Solve?
The superior performance of MasterLogic PLC enables faster discrete and sequencing control, while saving space and operations costs with its small and compact modular size.
