1. The role is different
A PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is an electronic system designed for digital operations in an industrial environment.
Inverter is a power control equipment that applies frequency conversion technology and microelectronics technology to control AC motors by changing the frequency of the working power supply of the motor.
2. The composition is different
The inverter is mainly composed of rectifier (AC to DC), filtering, inverter (DC to AC), braking unit, drive unit, detection unit, microprocessor unit, etc.
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is a digital computing controller with a microprocessor for automatic control, which can load control instructions into memory at any time for storage and execution. The programmable controller is composed of CPU, instruction and data memory, input/output interface, power supply, digital and analog conversion and other functional units.
3. The working principle is different
The inverter adjusts the voltage and frequency of the output power supply by the interruption of the internal IGBT, and provides the required power supply voltage according to the actual needs of the motor, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving and speed regulation.
The inverter uses a programmable memory to store instructions for performing operations such as logic operations, sequence control, timing, counting, and arithmetic operations, and controls various types of mechanical equipment or production processes through digital or analog inputs and outputs.

Hollyps PLC - the control method of PLC and frequency converter connection
1. Use the analog output module of the PLC to control the analog output module of the inverter The analog output module of the PLC outputs a 0-5V voltage signal or a 4-20mA current signal, which is used as the analog input signal of the inverter to control the output frequency of the inverter. This control method is simple to wiring, but it needs to be selected and changed.
