Well I can't see what this has to do with PHP let alone the implode() 
function.

The error quite clearly says "unknown column ..."

The proper use of IN requires that string values must be enclosed in either 
single-quotes or double-quotes. Thus you need to make $array look like:

  'PTX526_P_1','SIM_1'
or
  "PTX526_P_1","SIM_1"
