YOKOGAWA CENTUM CS 3000 Integrated Production Control System

YOKOGAWA CENTUM CS 3000 Integrated Production Control System 

System Overview

CENTUM CS 3000 is an integrated production control system for medium and large process control applications. This system is a synthesis of the latest technology with Yokogawa’s experience and specialist know-how. This new system has the functionality, flexibility and reliability of our CENTUM CS, and is also based on the V net control bus.

1.1 Yokogawa’s Enterprise Technology Solutions Concept

Enterprise Technology Solutions

• Enterprise:Enterprise viewpoint

• Technology:Latest technology

• Solutions:Optimum solutions

Yokogawa’s “Enterprise Technology Solutions” provide management with systems that integrate control of both factory and business, allowing management to improve profits. We use the latest technology, and can provide optimum solutions which satisfy customer requirements. Yokogawa can provide complete solutions: sophisticated information and control systems, plant-simulation production support systems, the latest field instrumentation – complete packages of the latest equipment and software technology, plus a complete range of services: from plant design, installation and startup through maintenance.

1.2 System Concepts

CENTUM CS 3000 is Yokogawa’s flagship control-system platform for launching Enterprise Technology Solutions. Its open interfaces facilitate data access from supervisory systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Systems and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), and make it easy to create a strategic management information system f

or your enterprise. CENTUM CS 3000 is a scalable, compatible system-designed to work with your existing systems, and grow with your business, reducing total cost of ownership (TCO).

• Optimal operating environment, hardware upgradeable to the latest technology,

• Flexible, durable system that can be optimized for your plant,

• Minimize total cost of ownership, increase profits,

• Powerful engineering functions,

• Improved Security and Safety for Plants.

2. System Configuration

2.1 System Configuration – CENTUM CS 3000 Equipment

Human Interface Station (HIS)

The HIS is mainly used for operation and monitoring – it displays process variables, control parameters, and alarms necessary for users to quickly grasp the operating status of the plant. It also incorporates open interfaces so that supervisory computers can access trend data, messages, and process data.

• Console Type HIS

This is a new console type human interface station, at which a general purpose PC is installed.

There are two types of console type HISs: one is enclosed display style, the appearance of which is usual style, and another is open display style, the configuration of which is selectable.

• Desktop Type HIS

This HIS uses a general purpose PC.

Field Control Station (FCS)

The FCS controls the plant. By the difference of used I/O modules, there are two models of the FCS; namely the FCS for FIO and the FCS for RIO. In addition to the above models, there is the Compact type FCS.

• FCS for FIO

This FCS uses the Fieldnetwork I/O (FIO) modules, which are compact and consist of various lineup such as the connector types and so forth. According to the application capacity, there are the standard model and the enhanced model.

• Compact FCS for FIO

This is a compact FCS with I/O modules integrated into the Field Control Unit.

• FCS for RIO

This FCS uses the Remote I/O (RIO) modules, which have many installation bases and M4 screw terminals to connect signal cables. According to the application capacity, there are the standard model and the enhanced model.

• Compact FCS for RIO

This controller is usually installed near the equipment or process it controls, and is ideal for communicating with subsystems.

Engineering PC (ENG)

This is the PC with engineering functions used to perform CENTUM CS 3000 system generation and maintenance management.

It can be the same type of general-purpose PC as the HIS, and can even be the same PC as the HIS.

By having HIS operation and monitoring functions on the same PC, you can use the test (control station emulation) functions to provide an efficient and easy-to-use engineering environment.

Bus Converter (BCV)

This links the V net system bus to another CENTUM CS 3000 domain or to an existing CENTUM or µXL system.

Communications Gateway Unit (CGW)

This links the V net control system bus to an Ethernet bus (to a supervisory computer system or general purpose personal computer).

By CGW wide area communication function, you can also link two CENTUM CS 3000 V nets in different places using a dedicated telephone line.

Migrated Field Control Station (RFCS2)

You can leave the I/O cards and field wiring of a CENTUM-XL or CENTUM V system “as is”, and replace the CPU nest with an KFCS, which can be connected to the V net just like a CENTUM CS 3000 system FCS.

SI bus is used as a (dual-redundant) bus connecting existing FCS I/O units to new FCS CPU.

Advanced Process Control Station (APCS)
