3 Phase motor control (Forward Reverse) using SIMATIC manager (LAD language).

This is PLC Program for 3 Phase Motor control (Forward/Reverse).

Problem Description

Write the PLC program for 3 phase motor control (Forward Reverse) in SIMATIC manager using LAD language.

Problem Solution

In this case we'd like to control motor in each direction which will be attainable solely by forward/Reverse negative feedback circuit or Logic.

Here we tend to solve this downside by easy Forward/Reverse management Logic.

So here we are going to take into account one 3 phase motor for Forward and Reverse Operation.

And we can take 2 contactors or relays for control as a result of we'd like 2 totally different directions here.

Also we must always take into account 3 push buttons for forward, reverse and stop operate.

So here operator can use FWD PB for forward operation, REV PB for reverse operation and STOP PB for stop operate.

Program Description

In this application we will use Siemens S7-300 PLC and SIMATIC manager Software for programming. We can also design this logic with relay circuit.

Network 1:-In this network forward motor contactor (Q0.0) can be start by pressing FBD PB (I0.0) and can be stopped by pressing STOP PB (I0.2).

Network 2:-In this network reverse motor contactor (Q0.1) can be started by pressing REV PB(I0.1) and can be stopped by pressing STOP PB (I0.2).
