PLC Selective Execution of a Application
This is PLC Program for selective execution of the application.
Problem Description
There are pigments of three colors. We need to fill different pigments into jar by selecting the selector switches. Implement the PLC program using ladder programming language.
Problem Diagram
Problem Solution
- In this system we will consider S7-300 PLC and TIA portal software for programming.
- Here we need to fill different pigments in the jar as per requirement. So consider 3 types of different color pigments (Yellow, blue and green.).
- Two valves are used for controlling the pigments. (As we know mixing of yellow and blue is green color so there is no need of separate valve for green color.)
- When both yellow and blue color are filled at the same time, it will become green color. Selector switch is used for color selection in the system and ON/OFF switch is used for system STOP.

Ladder diagram for Selective Execution of the Application
Program Description
Network 1 :-
When ON/OFF switch (I2.0) is ON and START PB is pressed, Cycle ON (Q0.0) lamp will be ON.
Network 2 :-
If cycle is ON and yellow color pigment is selected (I0.2), yellow color control valve (Q0.1) will be ON.
Network 3 :-
If cycle is ON and blue color pigment is selected (I0.3), blue color control valve (Q0.2) will be ON. If green color pigment is selected (I0.4), both the valves will be ON and pigment will become green color.
