Hardware for PLCs provides essential information on the basic functions of a PLC's hardware components and how they work together to execute a PLC program. The hardware components of a PLC are the field devices, input module, output module, central processing unit, and the power supply. The field devices are the components that perform actions in order to control a process. PLC hardware also includes peripheral devices, such as programming devices and personal computers, which allow operators to interact with the PLC and monitor programs. After taking this class, users will be familiar with PLC hardware components, basic PLC networks, and the main steps in a PLC process. Understanding PLC hardware components and how they work together to control a machine or process is essential to working with PLCs. Many industries and automated processes rely on PLCs.
