PLC Control Systems
A programmable logic controller (PLC) or programmable controller is an industrial digital computer which has been ruggedized and adapted for the control of manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, or robotic devices, or any activity that requires high reliability control and ease of programming and process fault diagnosis.

These PLC Control Systems are highly-reliable system controls that can be customized to interface with the most demanding plant systems. Ethernet, MOD Bus and other interface options are available so Clayton can best match your system.
The advantages of PLC control systems include:
- a simplified control panel resulting in less maintenance than with relay logic systems.
- improved response to widely varying steam demands, while maintaining steam pressure.
