CLASSIFICATION OF PLC
PLC can be classified as follows
1.According to structure of PLC
a. Integral type
b. Modular Type
2. Depending upon the no. of I/Os
a. Small(<100)
b. Medium(<10000)
c. Large(>10000)
3. Depending upon the I/Os supported
a. Digital
b. Analog
Modular PLC * Modular PLC Modular PLC is a constituent part of the PLC, are made of several separate modules, such as CPU module, I / O modules, power modules (including some in the CPU module) and a variety of functional modules. * Modular PLC by the frame or the substrate and the various modules. * Module installed in the socket frame or substrate. * Features The modular PLC is flexible configuration, the system can choose different sizes according to needs, and easy to assemble, easy expansion and maintenance. * Large and medium-sized PLC generally use the modular structure.
