DDC/PLC CONTROL

DDC/PLC CONTROL

  1. Use of microprocessor-based controllers for automated control of processes.
  2. DDC is commonly used in HVAC and building automation; PLCs are widely used in industrial automation.
  3. Control logic is programmed via software, allowing customization for specific applications.
  4. Supports complex logic, timing, sequencing, and arithmetic operations.
  5. Continuously monitors inputs (sensors, switches) and controls outputs (motors, valves, actuators).
  6. Enables precise and dynamic response to changing process conditions.
  7. Systems can be expanded by adding input/output (I/O) modules or additional controllers.
  8. Suitable for small standalone machines to large, complex industrial plants.
  9. Supports multiple communication protocols (Modbus, BACnet, Profibus, Ethernet/IP, etc.) for integration with SCADA, HMI, and other automation systems.
  10. Allows remote monitoring, control, and data logging.
  11. Typically interfaced with HMIs (Human Machine Interfaces) or software dashboards.
  12. Provides alarms, historical data, trend analysis, and diagnostics.

  1. Easy to program and modify for different processes or system changes without hardware rewiring.
  2. Automated control optimizes operations, reduces human error, and ensures consistent quality.
  3. Built-in fault detection, interlocks, and emergency shutdown features improve system safety.
  4. Enables continuous monitoring, fault diagnostics, and predictive maintenance.
  5. Can be scaled up or down easily by adding modules or controllers as needed.
  6. Supports multiple protocols enabling integration with building management, SCADA, and enterprise systems.
  7. Faster troubleshooting and remote diagnostics minimize downtime and maintenance costs.
  8. HMIs and dashboards provide intuitive control and visibility into operations.
