The basic function of ProSafe-COM is communication. In addition to this, ProSafe-COM can store events (SOER = sequence of event recorder) and perform logical operations.

ProSafe-COM MULCOM handles the communication between the ProSafe safety system and the supervising system. MULCOM uploads all relevant process information from the ProSafe safety system to the supervising system. The DCS or SCADA system organizes and displays this information to the operator.

A ProSafe safety system can be supervised from the Yokogawa CENTUM CS3000 system. Another Distributed Control System (DCS) or SCADA system can be used also. An excellent SCADA solution is provided by Yokogawa System Center Europe’s FAST/TOOLS.

When connected to a CS3000 system, MULCOM allows a complete integration of the safety system within the CS3000 system.
MULCOM can automatically send event information to the CS3000 system.
Other DCS or SCADA systems have to request for information from MULCOM using OPC or Modbus.
