Small Process Automation: Panelview 5000, ControlLogix 5580

Description

Automation Ready Panels introduces the next level of the ControlLogix 5580 Panel Design Customer Experience:  Hardware Design, Software Design, and Engineering Service for the price of our Competitions Hardware Build-to-Print.

This Process Automation ControlLogix 5580 PLC Panel is based around a state of the art PLC, Color/Touch HMI, FVNR Motor Starters and/or Powerflex 525 Variable Frequency Drives (*), and a complement of 1756 IO.  Inputs and Outputs can be easily expanded with more network-based IO.

With this control panel, the ControlLogix 5580 PLC can be programmed flexibly with many logic options and HMI with features and settings for operational flexibility.  Automation Ready Panels pre-programs this system with Discrete Input Delay (On/Off Timers) programming blocks to keep inputs from flutter or can be used for delay timers on levels, photoeyes, or other sensors. Analog Scaling programming blocks are used for analog inputs/outputs.  Motor, VFD, and devices programming blocks are included with feature rich functionality (Rockwell Machine Builder Library V12 and Power Device Library V2.2).  Statistical Analysis programming blocks can be used for average and standard deviation calcs for a sample size.  VFDs are networked over Ethernet/IP to reduce IO requirements and bring in smart data from the device.  Other communications types to Micro800 PLCs, CompactLogix PLCs, Micrologix PLCs, Fanuc Robots, and SMC valve banks are included.  A full state machine, shell sequencer programs, and a safety program have been added to reduce final integration time.  The HMI has pre-designed graphics for OEE production data (current and previous shift), Cycle Timer, Production Rate, Recipe Status, State Machine and Sequencer Status, Alarming and Alarm Management, VFD control status and faults popup, Valve and device control and status popups, settings input boxes, motor valve analog discrete device objects with breadcrumbs, historical trending, user security, recipe management, PDF Viewer with manuals and electrical drawings embedded in the HMI, Process Reports, Preventive Maintenance Report, Emailing Reports, and Batch Tracking.  If desired, one of Automation Ready Panels controls engineers can program up to one hour of free programming (**) to finish off your sequencer, meeting your applications needs.  This means that a fully functional controls system can be delivered and ready to install, wire sensors and motors, power up, and the system is up and running.

(*) Up to 10 Motor Starters or VFDs can be used in this design with a Full-Load Amps of less than 200 Amps (Due to our 200 Amp Max Disconnect Limitation: largest motor amps x 1.25 + sum of other motor amps + non-motor continuous loads x 1.25).  Visit https://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/elctrical-motor-full-load-current-d_1499.html for motor FLA chart.  Panel Size may be larger than shown if large VFDs are selected (May also include fan/filter kit if VFDs are selected).  Temperature calculation assumes only back of panel has no air flow, Indoor Use (out of direct sunlight), 50-90°F Ambient temperature.
(**) The free included hour of programming can also be used either partially or fully for CAD drawings updates and/or remote installation phone support.
