The programmable logic controller (PLC) is an important component in most modern automation and process control systems today. It's also susceptible to lightning-induced transients. To verify the ...

Control system technologies are continually evolving, providing designers and facility owners with an ever-increasing array of options. Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and distributed control ...

Over the past decade, the functionality of different control systems has been merging. Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) now have capabilities once found only in distributed control systems (DCSs) ...

Most industrial engineers are familiar and comfortable knowing that a local, hardened, industrial grade PLC is controlling their process. That’s why control via cloud-based algorithms is, to say the ...

While PLCs (programmable logic controllers) are an industry norm, demands for data, memory, and processing power are intensifying. Soon enough, the PLCs may no longer be the go-to industrial computer.

Ross’ SysCon PLC-based Control Systems are designed for sequential control of automated processes including mixing, pumping, chemical dosing, water treatment, fractionation, and heat exchange. Ross’ ...
