As part of its programme to provide the global industrial automation sector with the latest integrated control room solutions, the new Yokogawa MW100 is a scalable, high performance data acquisition / datalogging system designed for both PC controlled and stand-alone operation. The system combines intelligent, built in data storage on Compact Flash card of up to 2GB, with web-enabled Ethernet connectivity for shared real time trend monitoring using a standard web browser.

No dedicated software is needed for configuration and data monitoring. Advanced integrated network functions like FTP, E-mail and webserver function make the MW100 also suitable in remote applications (e.g. GSM, GPRS). The system is scalable from 10 to 60 universal input modules on a single chassis. An expandable system of up to 360 channels can easily be built with multiple MW100s and the Modbus TCP communication protocol.
As a member of the successful DAQMASTER data acquisition series the MW100 supports all existing MX100 input and output modules offering flexible multi channel capabilities, channel-to-channel input isolation and high withstand voltage for the most demanding applications.
The system can withstand temperature extremes and high vibration, and is designed for either desktop or DIN rail rack mount in industrial or laboratory environments. Yokogawa’s recorders and data acquisition systems are user and PC friendly, and, together with a wide range of software packages, offer fully-customisable configurations from simple temperature monitoring up to advanced multi-loop process control.

Yokogawa’s digital plant-wide integration capability, VigilantPlant, comprises tools and services that bring together digital field instrumentation, web-enabled technology, asset management software, predictive intelligence and broadband control, linked together through an intuitive software environment. VigilantPlant provides systems for process control, safeguarding, supervisory & data acquisition, and complete management information systems, minimising risk and optimising performance.
