Automation System Automation is the use of control systems and
information technologies to reduce the need for human work in the production of goods and services.
In the scope of industrialization, automation is a step beyond mechanization.
Whereas mechanization provided human operators with machinery to assist them with the muscular requirements of work, automation greatly decreases the need for human sensory and mental requirements as well

Relays Define A relay is usually an electromechanical device that is actuated by an electrical current. The
current flowing in one circuit causes the opening or closing of another circuit. Relays are like remote control switches and are used in many applications because of their relative simplicity, long life, and proven high reliability. Relays are used in a wide variety of applications throughout industry, such as in telephone exchanges, digital computers and automation systems. Highly sophisticated relays are utilized to protect electric power systems against trouble and power blackouts as well as to regulate and control the generation and distribution of power. In the home, relays are used in refrigerators, washing machines and dishwashers, and heating and air-conditioning controls

UNIT 1INTRODUCTION TO AUTOMATION SYSTEM
How does a relay work? All relays contain a sensing unit, the electric coil, which is powered by AC or DC
current. When the applied current or voltage exceeds a threshold value, the coil activates the armature, which operates either to close the open contacts or to open the closed contacts. When a power is supplied to the coil, it generates a magnetic force that actuates the switch mechanism. The magnetic force is, in effect, relaying the action from one circuit to another. The first circuit is called the control circuit; the second is called the load circuit.
There are three (3) basic functions of a relay: On/Off Control: Example: Air conditioning control, used to limit and control a “high power”
load, such as a compressor. Limit Control: Example: Motor Speed Control, used to disconnect a motor if it runs slower or
faster than the desired speed. Logic Operation: Example: Test Equipment, used to connect the instrument to a number of
testing points on the device under test.

Operation
When no voltage is applied to pin 1, there is no current flow through the coil. No current means no magnetic field is developed, and the switch is open. When voltage is supplied to pin 1, current flow though the coil creates the magnetic field needed to close the switch allowing continuity between pins 2 and 4.

UNIT 1INTRODUCTION TO AUTOMATION SYSTEM
This is a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) relay. Current will only flow through the contacts when the relay coil is energized.
This is a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) relay. Current will flow between the movable contact and one fixed contact when the coil is DEenergized and between the movable contact and the alternate fixed contact when the relay coil is energized. The most commonly used relay in car audio, the Bosch relay, is a SPDT relay.
This is a Double Pole Single Throw (DPST) relay. When the relay coil is energized, two separate and electrically isolated sets of contacts are pulled down to make contact with their stationary counterparts. There is no complete circuit path when the relay is DEenergized.

UNIT 1INTRODUCTION TO AUTOMATION SYSTEM
This relay is a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) relay. It operates like the SPDT relay but has twice as many contacts. There are two completely isolated sets of contacts.
This is a 4 Pole Double Throw (4PDT) relay. It operates like the SPDT relay but it has 4 sets of isolated contacts.

Contactors Define
Contactors are used to indicate an open or closed path of current flow. Contacts are shown as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). Contacts shown by this symbol require another device to actuate them.

Operation
Normally Open Contact
Normally Open Contact
In the following illustration the circuit is first shown in the de-energized state. The contacts are shown in their normally open (NO) state. When the relay is energized, the contacts close, completing the path of current and illuminating the light. The contacts have been highlighted to indicate they are now closed.

Operation
Normally Close Contact
Normally Close Contact
In the following illustration the contacts are shown as normally closed (NC), meaning the contacts is closed when the relay is de-energized. A complete path of current exists and the light is on. When the relay is energized, the contacts open turning the light off.

Electromechanical Timer Define
Electromechanical timers are used to start or stop a machine or other device at preset or delayed intervals. They consist of both electrical and mechanical components, and often feature an electric motor that drives one or more gears. They typically accept electric or electronic inputs to operate a mechanical output such as rotating wheels or knobs.

Electromechanical Counter Define
Electromechanical counters are used to detect, totalize, and indicate a sequence of events. They typically accept electric or electronic inputs to operate mechanical outputs such as rotating wheels or knobs. These devices may count UP and/or DOWN, support multiple functions, and provide reset capabilities.
