PLC LPG Gas Crematorium

The PLC control panel is the operational brain of the crematorium, managing and coordinating all equipment functions throughout the cremation cycle. The panel is equipped with MCBs, sensors, contactors, switches, indicating lamps, time monitors, relays, and temperature recorders. It supports two operating modes — AUTO mode, in which the entire cremation cycle is managed automatically by the PLC system from body insertion through to cycle completion, and MANUAL mode, which gives operators direct control over individual equipment functions when required for maintenance, troubleshooting, or non-standard situations. For advanced installations, the PLC panel can be configured with a VFD panel or SCADA system interface, providing real-time operational monitoring, data logging, and remote visibility of crematorium performance. In addition to the main PLC panel, we supply two supplementary panel boards — including one dedicated manual operation panel that allows all crematorium equipment to be operated independently if the PLC system requires attention.

The automatic body insertion system is one of the most significant operational features of our PLC LPG gas crematorium. The deceased is placed on a motorised trolley that is fully integrated with the PLC control system. In AUTO mode, the PLC coordinates the entire insertion sequence — the furnace door opens automatically via its motorised up-and-down mechanism, the trolley advances forward carrying the body into the cremation chamber, the body is positioned correctly on the cremation bed, the trolley reverses back, and the furnace door closes and seals automatically — all without manual operator intervention. This automation removes the physical effort and coordination burden from crematorium staff during the most sensitive stage of the process, while ensuring that the furnace door seals correctly and the body is positioned accurately within the cremation chamber every single time.

Our PLC LPG gas cremation furnace is a double-chamber system — with primary and secondary combustion chambers — constructed to withstand operating temperatures of up to 1200 degrees Celsius. The furnace is built using high-quality refractory bricks, linings, and castables selected for their ability to sustain these temperatures over many years of daily operation. Temperature monitoring and controlling devices are integrated directly into the PLC system, allowing the cremation cycle to be managed to precise, pre-programmed temperature profiles automatically. The modern LPG burner bank delivers consistent, high-intensity heat that achieves a complete cremation within 45 to 60 minutes per body. The PLC system continuously monitors furnace temperatures throughout the cycle and adjusts burner operation as required to maintain the designed temperature profile — delivering consistently complete and efficient cremation with every cycle.

Our PLC LPG gas crematorium is fitted with a modern, high-specification pollution control system built entirely from stainless steel — offering superior corrosion resistance, longer service life, and lower maintenance requirements compared to conventional mild steel pollution control equipment. The system comprises a venturi wet scrubber with wash column and a cyclone separator, both fully constructed from stainless steel. The induced draft fan is also stainless steel construction with a suitably rated motor and all accessories. All interconnecting pipes and ducts between the cremation furnace and the stack chimney are supplied and installed as part of our complete system. The 30-metre self-supported stack chimney is designed and erected to full Pollution Control Board specifications, complete with smoke inspection point, lightning arrestor, aviation warning lamp, and access ladder with platform. Every component of our pollution control train is designed to ensure emissions consistently meet Central Pollution Control Board norms.

Operational continuity is a fundamental design consideration in our PLC crematorium system. In addition to the main PLC control panel, we supply two supplementary panel boards with every installation — including one dedicated manual operation panel board that allows all crematorium equipment to be operated independently and directly, bypassing the PLC system entirely if required. This means that even if the PLC panel requires attention, maintenance, or repair, your crematorium can continue to operate in manual mode without any interruption to cremation services. This dual-mode design — AUTO for normal operation and MANUAL for emergency or maintenance situations — ensures that the advanced automation of the PLC system never becomes a single point of failure for your facility's operations.

The PLC LPG gas crematorium is best suited to institutions where high daily cremation volumes demand consistent, reliable, and efficient performance with minimal operator fatigue and intervention. Large municipal corporations managing significant daily cremation volumes will benefit most from the automation, consistency, and reduced operator dependency that the PLC system provides. Institutions investing in a new flagship crematorium facility that will serve their community for many decades will find the PLC system a future-ready choice that reflects the highest current standard of cremation technology available in India. Charitable trusts and private cremation institutions that prioritise operational excellence, dignified process management, and long-term low-maintenance performance are also well suited to the PLC crematorium. If your institution is committed to providing the best possible cremation facility for your community, the PLC LPG gas crematorium from Enviro Care Engineers is the definitive choice.
