Push Button (mashroom type, flush type and projecting type)



The push button is mainly classified into two types depending on there function as :-
  • Normally closed push button. 
  • Normally open push button.
As the name indicates the NO push buttons are Normally open, there is no any physical connection between moving and fixed contacts, and when pressed it becomes functionally closed. In case of NC push button, they are normally closed and when pressed they become functionally open.

depending on the appearance it is again classified as:-

  • Mushroom type push button. 
  • flush type push button.
  • Projecting type push button.
Mushroom type push Button 

Above fig. shows the mushroom type push button. here it consist various parts as Actuator, Mounting plate, Elements.
we can mount the NO or NC elements and Actuator to the mounting plate with the help of screws.
As in general practice Green colored actuators are used as indication of Start of process and Red colored actuator is used as indication of End of the process. Another important point related to the safety is, we mostly use the Normally Open hardware contact in start of the process and Normally Closed hardware contact for stop of the process.

Flush type push Button.

Above fig. shows the flush type push button.In this type of push button the actuator moves inside the cover of it, that's why it becomes the disadvantage where there is a dusty or oily operating condition, because of it there is a chances of actuator to get stuck and led to unwanted results.

Projecting type push Button 

Above fig. shows the projecting type push button. In this kind of push button actuator are projecting out and there is no any cover over the actuator, so there is risk of damage due to physical accidents.

Note :-In modular type of push button we can add up to 6 Elements to  single push button but in general two elements are used with single push button.

Timers in Siemens PLC Simatic manager

Timer :- Timer is nothing but a specialized clock in a programming software used to count the preset time intervals. In   Siemens PLC we have various ty pes of timers as :- 1) S_PULSE(Pulse timer), 2) S_PEXT(Extended Pulse Timer), 3) S_ODT(On Delay Timer), 4) S_ODTS(Retentive On Delay Timer), 5) S_OFFDT(Off Delay Timer). You must find out another five instruction sets in Timer Block in Simatic Manager STEP 7 as :- -(SP) pulse timer coil, -(SE) extended pulse timer coil, -(SD) on delay timer coil, -(SS) retentive on delay timer coil, -(SF) off delay timer coil. 1) S_PULSE(Pulse timer) :- S_PULSE Timer   Above Fig Shows how to use this timer in programming software,in this fig i have used 5 sec as a preset value, If you want to change it replace the 5 with any duration you want in S5T# 5 S.    In S_PULSE timer if input to timer is ON then timer starts Counting time as well as we get the Output at the instant the input is made ON. In t...

Bit Logic Instruction in Simatic manager

There are total 14 instructions under the bit logic instruction like NO contact, NC contact, SR flip-flop, RS flip-flop,invert power flow etc. lets see the detailed use of them.  A) Normally open contact :- Normally open contacts are closed when the bit value stored at the specific address is equal to 1 (one)(here the specific address refers to the address assigned to the NO contact), when we press the Normally open contact assigned to the specific address then it becomes functionally closed and we get supply. here in below fig. when we press the NO contact I0.0 then Output Q0.0 gets ON and when we release the input I0.0 then Output gets OFF. B)Normally Closed Contact :- Normally closed contacts are closed when the bit value stored at the specific add, i.e. the address assigned to the NC contact is equal to 0(zero). when we press the Normally closed contact assigned to the specific address then it becomes functionally open and supply is cuts off. NC contact wor...
