What is the purpose of sequence control?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Identify the purpose of sequence control.

Explanation of Solution

The purpose of sequence control is to maintain the predetermined order at which the motors are forced to start or stop. One motor cannot start unit its predecessor is in operation.

Machines that have high pressure pump operation like the hydraulic press or systems that requires a blower to be in operation before stating the compressor like the air-conditioning systems use the sequence control.
