This is a small project we did to control an industrial hot water pressure washer at a meat processing facility. We installed a Horner APG PLC/HMI to use as the front end, and also to provide PID control for constant pressure. The PLC was wired to a pressure transducer to sense the line pressure. The […]

The control panel left much to be desired, and after daily use for 20 years, was not functioning as needed. The PLC controller had a couple of burned out relays, […]
