OBJECTIVE
In this PLC training, participants will write, test and troubleshoot programs for sequential process applications using the Siemens S7-300 series controller. Functional requirements include operator control, status indication, alarms, equipment maintenance policy, process data, fault diagnostics, and safety policy.
Scope
PLC Automation Course (Advanced) is a post-trade professional development course for candidates who would like to gain exposure in and enhance their PLC and process control skills. In the PLC 2 course we will be using
- Siemens S7-300 controllers and the software Step 7;
- Allan Bradley Micrologix 1000 controllers and RSlogix Micro-starter lite software
Target Workforce
This course is designed for electricians, electrical technicians, maintenance personnel, and machine design engineers and those who need to or wish to familiarise themselves with sequence control, process data and safety applications. On successful completion of training and assessment, students who have already completed the UEECD0007, UEEIC0013 and UEEIC0015 covered under PMV’s “PLC Automation Short Course – Basic”, will be issued with the units of competency, listed above.
Training Method
Blended delivery of 30% theory and 70% practical training with what you are likely to see in a typical modern industrial environment with PLC control system.
- Intensive hands-on installation, fault finding and commissioning experience
- Quality time with PMV trainers to review the theory and discuss feedback on theory assessment
- Practical exercises as part of the competency-based training outcome.
OUTCOME
Statement of Attainment (SOA)This Statement is issued to a student who has successfully completed one or more units of competency on meeting the prerequisite requirements.
