Today, I will present an example of interference from a variable frequency drive (VFD) on a PLC’s analog signal and a solution using a signal isolation module to overcome such interference. 1. Example 1: Phenomenon Description In a Siemens PLC, the AO point outputs a 4-20mA current control signal to a Siemens VFD, but it … Read more
In the field environment of Profibus, we use a variety of systems, and the devices we face interference from are diverse, so the sources of interference are also varied. Many failures caused by interference are more difficult to troubleshoot than other faults. Before troubleshooting interference failures, we need to understand the types of interference. In … Read more
In the field environment of Profibus, the systems we use are diverse, and the devices we are interfered with are varied, so the sources of interference are also peculiar. Many failures caused by interference are more difficult to troubleshoot than other failures. Before eliminating interference faults, we need to understand the types of interference. To … Read more
