Looking at the Vision Series HMI+PLC but need advise on which I/O.
We have a friend/customer that currently has 6 pumps on VFDs at their winery that control the flow of glycol/water for the main cooling loop. He wanted us to look into operating the pumps automatic based on pressure of the loop and include an option for them to operate individual pump manual or set back to automatic. I believe the manual to auto switching can be handled at each VFD and I wouldn't need addition programming.
What we are trying to accomplish:
Stage all 6 pumps on/off or modulate speed based on pressure setpoint.
One pressure transducer AI (4-20ma or 0-10vdc)
6 programmable individual AO (0-10vdc)
What I think would work but need input:
Vision 1210
V200-18-E3XB (snap-in I/O)
IO-A06X (expansion I/O)
I am positive that everyone will have questions and I thank you for your help.
