The new function of CENTUM CS 3000 Revision3.04 released in September, 2003 is introduced. |
|
|
|
The CENTUM CS 3000 R3 integrated production control system has evolved into the world’s most scalable control system ― supporting small to large -size applications.
As a result of the recent technology evolution, many new features needed for small to medium size plant control systems have been added to the CENTUM CS 3000 R3 - minimizing costs while maximizing performance.
The CENTUM CS 3000 R3 will continue to evolve with technology and remain a scalable control system that maximizes asset productivity.
Technology evolution enhancements to the CENTUM CS 3000 R3 include:
-Controller evolution
-Human Machine Interface evolution
-FOUNDATION™ fieldbus evolution
-PROFIBUS evolution
-μXL evolution

A compact, highly reliable yet sophisticated controller (FFCS)
|
|
New Controller(FFCS)
|
|
<Compact and Expandable>
The most suitable controller for small-scale control system, FFCS has been put in CENTUM CS 3000 R3 controller product family. The FFCS is a compact model; its height has been reduced by 60% of earlier models. Moreover, up to three I/O nodes can be added to one FFCS. Thus, the control capability of a system can be enhanced without adding additional controllers.
|
|
<Highly Sophisticated>
Though the controller is compact, it has all the sophisticated control functions of a larger size controller. The application capacity has been greatly expanded - compared to earlier compact models - delivering more application expansion capacity and asset productivity.
|
|
<High Reliability>
The processor cards, power supplies, communication buses and input and output modules can all be redundant. The processor cards also utilize the Pair and Spare system, the same technology deployed in large-scale controllers. In case of a malfunction, the control is bumplessly switched from one processor to another eliminating any impact to the control schemes.

The elements needed to expand the DCS’s operation and monitoring capabilities have been included in this enhanced product.

|
|
A GSGW System Configuration |
|
<Expansion of Operation and Monitoring Capabilities>
A generic subsystem gateway (GSGW), which uses an industry standard interface for subsystem communications (electrical or mechanical subsystems for example) is now included. GSGW makes it easy to integrate an up-stream to down-stream monitoring application.
|
|
<Introducing the OPC DA industrial standard interface>
An OPC DA interface, now the industrial de facto standard, is used as the communication interface. With the OPC DA interface, CENTUM CS 3000 R3 can be easily connected with a greater number and variety of machines supplied by various manufacturers. Also, this technology makes it easier to support newer models in the future.
|
|
<Standardized Operating Environment >
GSGW contains various types of operation and monitoring function blocks. Data monitoring, data setting, equipment start/stop and annunciator triggering are all performed in a standard operation and monitoring environment for the controller.

The FOUNDATION™ fieldbus technology, typically considered for large-scale control systems, now can be applied to small and medium size control systems.
|
|
|
<Integrated Engineering, Operations and Monitoring>
The CENTUM CS 3000 R3 integrates FOUNDATION™ fieldbus (FF) engineering functions and FF operations and monitoring. Thus, FF function blocks can be handled in an identical manner as standard function blocks making engineering, operations and monitoring much more efficient.
|
|
<Completely Redundant System>
FF interface modules are designed to be completely redundant. As with our other process I/O modules, seamless switching and online - hot swap - exchange capability is provided. A module failure will not affect plant operations. As a result, the reliability of a FF system has been dramatically improved.
|
|
<Efficient Maintenance: Plant Resource Manager (PRM)>
PRM greatly improves maintenance efficiency by integrating the execution and control of maintenance information with the network. PRM integrates the control of the maintenance schedules, maintenance parts, maintenance history and all maintenance information from intelligent field devices. Moreover, monitoring field device operational status, viewing and changing tuning parameters and online diagnosis can all be performed through the network.

The FFCS fully supports PROFIBUS DP-V1, which is the de facto fieldbus for discrete automation.
|
|
<FOUNDATION™ fieldbus + PROFIBUS >
The latest PROFIBUS DP-V1 specification is fully implemented so that various types of explosion proof devices can be easily and safely connected. A redundant configuration can be designed following the PNO's recommendations.

To generate the maximum return with the minimum investment, Yokogawa is providing solutions for migrating the legacy μXL DCS systems into the new production plant control systems with the latest technology so as to take part in the competition of the 21st century.
|
|
|
<The Need for Evolution>
Yokogawa is proud of the operation and control track record of the μXL. Upgrading the system to meet 21st century control system demands, network capability is required. With network capability, your system will have the following benefits.
-By linking to supervisory information system, dynamic adjustment of operations to meet market demands
-Productivity improvement by linking to Advanced Process Control (APC)
-Improvement of operational efficiency by linking to Advanced Operation Assistance (AOA)
|
<Utilization of Existing Assets>
Yokogawa offers a phased migration plan for CENTUM. This phased migration is not a simple replacement, but utilizes your existing hardware, software and operation know-how to best effect. The field wiring need not be changed. Control station cabinets can be reused. And application software is also used in the most effective way.
|
<Phased migration>
Phased migration is a two-step upgrade method on a component basis, which reduces the required investment and manpower, and shortens the upgrade period.
