BU33J01A10-01EN Yokogawa

The CENTUM VP Distributed Control System (DCS) is Yokogawa's most advanced, integrated process control system, providing enhanced productivity and optimization across a wide range of industries. For over forty years, the CENTUM DCS family has evolved to meet and exceed the needs of businesses and will continue to do so as they reinvent themselves through digital transformations and incorporate new technologies such as IoT far into the future.

Customer Centric Values

CENTUM VP is a reliable built for safe performance control system that is scalable, flexible, powerful and easy to use.

Efficient Engineering Environment

Automation Design Suite enables users eliminate redundant work, increase engineering efficiency using flexibility of Standardized Modular engineering, maintain data integrity and enable change management through smart engineering. The reduced workflow translates to sustainable, efficient project execution to realize business value

Intuitive Unified Plant Operations

Operator centric interface for control, safety, asset intelligence integrated with embedded Consolidated Alarm Management System prevents information overload for operators allowing deliver safe, high performance, efficient plant operations for customer satisfaction.

Pragmatic Lifecycle Management Programmes

Yokogawa provide online upgrades, patches, migration, security solutions as lifecycle services. These services involve comprehensive customer collaboration ensuring sustainable return on investment for control system assets. These services are applicable across plant lifecycle.

Improved Project Execution and Reduced Cost

N-IO (Network I/O), the next-generation software configurable smart I/O reduces footprint, lowers marshalling costs and allows flexible I/O binding. N-IO matched with the FieldMate Validator commissioning tool allow significantly faster project completion to reduce costs without quality compromise.

Operation

Yokogawa's rich experience in process industry with CENTUM is applied to develop an intuitive, human centric designed HMI environment for plant operations. Flexible windows with multi monitor approach offer an adaptable visual platform for diverse plant operator requirements. GUI designed using on human ergonomics makes CENTUM VP HMI environment easy for users. High visibility for data displays, use of colours considering ambient lighting, optimized contrast for visibility. Display configuration combine knowledge from operator experience deliver optimized data on HMI screens. Powerful HMI environment empower operators take timely correct for operation efficiency.

Control

Yokogawa's CENTUM series achieves continuous availability with reliability through a dual redundant design, online maintenance capability features. FCS processor module, power supply, I/O   modules, and I/O networks are all dual redundant. Active and stand-by processor modules work in synchronization: even if a failure occurs, control switches over seamlessly to stand-by module facilitates uninterrupted FCS availability. Failed modules can be replaced online, ensuring that even a hardware failure will not interrupt plant operation.

N-IO (Network I/O)

Network I/O (N-IO) enables a single I/O module to handle AI, AO, DI, and DO signals. For each I/O point sigal type is software configurable through appropriate adapter, this prevents delay in the plant installation caused by the change. Adapters serve as signal converters support a wide variety of signal types, offering choice to customer depending on the application. N-IO eliminates need of conventional marshalling saves installation space, reduces project costs. N-IO module can also be used as a remote I/O module by installing it as a remote junction box in the field.

N-IO Field Enclosure

N-IO field enclosure is a standard remote cabinet delivered with optimally designed auxiliary equipment including power supply.

n FIO (Field Network I/O)

A variety of Field Network I/O (FIO) modules are available for each process signal type. The FIO modules can be connected to field devices via a pressure clamp terminal block, dedicated terminal board, or a MIL cable. FIO is the appropriate I/O choice for creating a configuration using a terminal block.

RIO System Upgrade I/O

Other available I/O modules include a Remote I/O (RIO) module for I/O signals and an I/O module for RIO system upgrade to upgrade the system in a short time by maximizing existing assets.
