Abstract Redundant programmable logic controllers are used in practice with the aim of achieving a higher degree of availability or fault tolerance. Redundancy system is fault tolerant programmable logic controller for machine and plant. It is event synchronized master-standby system with a 2 channel(1-out-of-2) structure. A data link connects line the master to the standby controller. Fault tolerant systems should always be used when it is necessary to keep the probability of a total control system failure to a minimum. The objective of using high availability programmable logic controller is a reduction of losses of fault tolerant system are quickly compensated by the avoidance of loss of production.
