EDC provided 23 vector motors and drives, a 1000+ point PLC with remote I/O, 30 zones of temperature control, 10 HMIs and four communications networks. The PLC program controlled steam, nitrogen, pressurized water and maintained the tension of a cable stretched within a 450-ft catenary tube. In all, the cable traveled over 1500 ft from the pay-off through capstans, three extruders, the steam-filled catenary tube, cooling troughs, accumulators and finally to the take-up reels. Every piece of equipment or process that touched the cable along the way needed to be controlled, monitored and coordinated. The controls for this project were built at the EDC facility and installed and commissioned 1000s of miles away.[/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”2″ gap=”10″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1585748087981-0394f1aa9ce38bb8eab7ee2e72e182da-2″ include=”501,500,499,498,497,496,1974,1975,1976,1977,1978,1979,1980,1981,1982,1983″][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
