Using Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP, user will get many advantages, one fo them is enable plant operators to make smarter decisions, easy to adapt and flexibly expand according to business, operation or production expansion requirements that you can see on Agile Project Execution. It is consists of Flexible Binding, Module Based Engineering and Management of Change.

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Flexible I/O Binding with N-IO and FieldMate Validator

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Flexible Binding improved late I/O binding solution, helps overcome these customer challenges can significantly affect the project schedule. This system offer advantages as below:

  • Flexible Binding facilitates simple and hassle-free I/O binding and reducing the Risks to Scheduled Project Delivery
  • This Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Flexible Binding completed by software marshaling and the N-IO’s universal channels. This can can be modified remotely which significantly absorbs the impact of last-minute I/O changes and can be found and fixed on-site at a very early stage.

  • Flexible Binding Early Start-up
  • Design Flexible Binding is fixed and enabled shortens duration of a project and is made possible by System Independent Loop Commissioning. This System Independent Loop Commissioning utilizes Yokogawa's FieldMate Validator, an innovative tool allowing the field testing and validation of N-IO without requiring a deployed system. Flexible Binding allows early start-up of plant operation and ensures lower risk of handover slippage.


Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Module Based Engineering

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Module Based Engineering retains the entire engineering history of your plant from design phase, through commissioning and live operation. This Module Based Engineering Suite adopts a Modular approach to automation design and execution, where process loops, alarm design philosophy which ensures up-to-date plant knowledge with every expansion, or hardware and software change throughout your lifecycle.

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Module Based Engineering enabled displayed graphics and more are deployed as design patterns: downloaded, shared and re-used as standards across the enterprise, saving time and resources with standardized, industry proven engineering modules available that span a broad range of processes and functions for production, safety and asset excellence.

Module Based Engineering facilitates more efficient and effective engineering without compromising  Yokogawa’s high standards of quality.


Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Management of Change and Resources

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Management of Change and Resources eliminates confusion and reduces the complexity of managing resource throughout the plant lifecycle. One of its features such as a pair & spare CPU configuration, CENTUM VP achieves 99.99999% (seven‐9s) availability. This benefit is project schedules are well maintained by reducing the delays and the engineering impact of late design changes or scope changes.

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Management of Change and Resources provides dynamic management of design, investment and project effectiveness by auditing and versioning engineering changes, and facilitating effective engineering through ModPacks.

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP Management of Change and Resources is also control and maintain auto-documents and checks inconsistencies in project activity and software resources, removing the pain from project management, and significantly reducing project risk.


Conclusion

Yokogawa DCS CENTUM VP has been applied in various applications to minimize upgrade costs by utilizing existing systems as much as possible. It facilitates more efficient and effective engineering without compromising  Yokogawa’s high standards of quality. In addition, It allows early start-up of plant operation and ensures lower risk of handover slippage. Learn more about this projects application will make users more familiar with this and finally can implement on their system well.
