Development of monitoring system for marine air compressor unit based on PLC

摘要

PLC technology and PC machines is combined together in order to design a visual remote operation and monitoring system which based on the configuration software. PLC technology and PC machines communicate via MPI and PROFIBUS-DP to make remote operations and monitoring fast and reliable. This system describes the composition and function of marine air compressor operation mode, programming software and PC monitor screen. The feasibility and effectiveness of the system is verified through the use of the ship. Therefore, the experimental results show the feasibility and effectiveness of the system. This system prove that it can improve control function of monitoring system.
