PLCs for Ukrainian Automation: What We Stock and When Each Brand Wins
Engineers come to us for PLCs when commissioning a new line or rebuilding an old control system around a modern controller with Ethernet. The most common scenarios this year: a water utility or pump station (Schneider Zelio or Siemens S7-1200), packaging and press lines (Delta DVP, Mitsubishi FX), feed mills and food production (Siemens S7-1500). The catalogue carries 378 models across four brands. Here is the selection logic we use, so customers do not drown in options.
A programmable logic controller is an industrial computer that runs a cyclic control program. It reads inputs (sensors, buttons), evaluates logic, drives outputs (relays, drives, valves). The principal difference from a regular PC: real-time cycle (1 ns to 1 us per bit instruction), tolerance to temperature and vibration, guaranteed operation 10-15 years or more. We deploy PLCs where a process must be automated. Example: a pump starts when pressure drops below 3 bar and stops at 5 bar, but if motor temperature exceeds 80 deg C: interlock. It works alongside VFDs, operator panels, sensors, servo drives.
Delta, Mitsubishi, Siemens or Schneider: For Which Job
Here is how we ship it. Delta Electronics (161 models, DVP-SS/SA/SX/SV/SE series): a strong price/performance pick, deployed on serial machines, packaging, marking lines; engineering in the free ISPSoft. Mitsubishi Electric (137 models, FX1S/FX1N/FX3G/FX3U/FX5U/iQ-R): Japanese reliability for machine tools and food production, GX Works2/3. Siemens (LOGO 8, S7-1200, S7-1500): the European standard, mandatory when the customer requires TIA Portal or Safety SIL 3 is in scope. Schneider Electric Zelio (54 models, SR2/SR3 range): smart relays for building automation and HVAC. Top-5 by our sales:
