Amatrol’s Electrical Control 1 Learning System (96-ECS1) teaches learners how to interpret, design, and operate relay control circuits using ladder diagrams. Electrical control is vital in the operation of electric and fluid power actuators and also forms the fundamental building block of automation systems like programmable logic controllers (PLCs), which are programmed using the electrical control schematic method, the ladder diagram.
The 96-ECS1 includes a tabletop console with pre-mounted electrical control, pneumatic, and electric power components. Each component’s electrical terminals are connected to heavy-duty banana jacks, enabling learners to quickly connect and operate a variety of automation control circuits. This learning system also features interactive multimedia curriculum covering major topic areas like control logic, ladder diagrams, sequencing control, timers, and advanced systems. This multimedia curriculum comes alive with exciting animations, videos, and interactive exercises, as well as a virtual simulator.
