If the programme is fail safe and all external wiring and equipment is to 17th then i cant see a problem.

The method of control I've come across was far more basic than a PLC. They accidentally smashed the glass on the meter then stuck a clothes peg on the wheel to stop it going around.

The only similarity is that both methods do not involve any analoge control
