Yokogawa Corporation of America: New Version of Integrated Production Control System

Release 5.02 of CENTUM VP features improved operation, monitoring and communication functions.
Aug. 7, 2012

Operation and monitoring functions have been strengthened with a function that uses instrument tag names to create hierarchies that allow operators to quickly and easily access information on the status of plant operations. Additional changes that improve operational and maintenance efficiency include more memory for the storage of historical data, improved graphic display operability, enhanced control logic correlation, and standardized printing formats. These functions mark progress in accommodating certain requirements of the VGB R 170C operational guideline, opening up new opportunities for the production control system in Europe and other growing power plant markets. PROFIBUS Communications have been reinforced with a new communication module that complies with the PROFIBUS communication standard. As specified in PROFIBUS User Organization (PNO) guidelines, the module supports the use of redundant communication paths with subsystems, improving overall system reliability. The installation of additional devices and online parameter changes is also enabled, which makes it easier to maintain devices and operate a plant.
