Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
List some of the advantages of solid-state control.
Explanation of Solution
Solid-state control:
Solid-state or state control consists of no moving parts and provides a method to control the machines electrically by using logic elements and accessories.
Advantages of solid-state control:
- The operational speed of the controlling system is faster.
- The solid-state devices are sealed units. Hence, it will not be affected by outside environmental conditions.
- It is not consists of any moving parts. Therefore, there will not be any loss of energy due to friction.
- The lifetime of the solid-state control system is longer.
Conclusion:
Thus, the advantages of solid-state control are listed.
