Design of gas drainage pipe network regulation and control system based on PLC

Abstract In order to improve the regulation efficiency of the coal mine gas drainage pipe network, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and ensure the safe production of coal mines, a gas drainage pipe network regulation and control system is designed. The system adopts Siemens S7-1200 series PLC as the core control unit of the gas drainage pipe network. Through the explosion-proof treatment of the PLC control box, it meets the special requirements of PLC used in the coal mine environment. Through the design and selection of flow sensors and methane sensors it improves the flow and methane sampling accuracy of the gas drainage regulation system. By writing local control strategies and remote control strategies in PLC, the automatic regulation of the gas drainage pipeline network is realized.
