PLC Program For Star-Delta Starter AC Motor - Free PLC Programming

Star-Delta starter is used in many cases for starting up the AC/Induction Motor where VFD is not installed to run the Motor. Star-Delta Starter is preferred over the DOL starter because the former controls the starting current of AC/Induction Motor and thus allowing the smooth starting and stopping of the AC/Induction Motor.

PLC Program of Star-Delta Starter for AC Motor - Free PLC Programming

Here in this PLC programming tutorial we will see only the PLC Programming required to make a Star-Delta Logic. First of all let us understand the Logic of Star-Delta Starter , In this whenever we push the Start Push Button then our Motor should start in STAR and after 3-7 seconds it should change to DELTA. So we need 3 numbers of contractors , 2 push button to make the hardware connections . 1 contractor for MAIN , 1 contractor for STAR , 1 contractor for DELTA and 1 NO type push button for START and 1 NC type push button for STOP.

0.0 --------------------------------------->>START PUSH BUTTON (NO)
0.1 --------------------------------------->>STOP PUSH BUTTON (NC)

OUTPUTS :-
100.0-------------------------------------->> MAIN CONTRACTOR
100.1-------------------------------------->> STAR CONTRACTOR
100.2-------------------------------------->> DELTA CONTRACTOR

Here we have made the PLC Program using CX-Programmer but the logic is same and by studying understanding the PLC program you can implement it in any PLC. You can download the PLC program from below.
We have also attached the PDF file for those who dont have the CX-Programmer software.

Download the PLC Program for Star Delta Starter.

We will be soon posting about the hardware connections involved in STAR-DELTA starter and how to make the logic without PLC. So keep visiting and also you can subscribe to get all related PLC Programs in yours mail. Subscribe to Automation-Talk by Email .
