Release Information

Reliable Controller

All field control stations (FCSs) in the CENTUM series, including software and hardware, have been developed by Yokogawa. We know every single bit of software and hardware to maintain a 99.99999% availability service record.

Compact & Convenient

Both the compact FCS and its I/O node units can be placed in remote classified locations (IEC Zone2/Class I Div. 2), providing installation savings.

Function Blocks

Plant systems can be flexibly designed, ranging from small- to large-scale, through the combination of CENTUM VP control blocks.

Subsystem Integration and Digital Fieldnetwork Support

CENTUM VP supports a wide variety of communication interfaces and digital fieldnetworks such as FOUNDATION fieldbus, PROFIBUS-DP, Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP/IP, and DeviceNet.

Dual-redundancy and Reliability

There is no single point of failure in Yokogawa's FCS! The processor modules, power supplies, and I/O modules including the communication bus support a redundant configuration. In this configuration, which is known as "Pair and Spare," the reliability of calculation results is guaranteed through real-time validation.
