Yokogawa CENTUM VP AFV10D S2 Duplexed Field Control Unit

The Yokogawa AFV10D S2 is a 19-inch rack-mountable Duplexed Field Control Unit for the CENTUM VP DCS. Featuring a 133 MHz processor and Vnet/IP compatibility, it provides high-speed, redundant process control. This Japan-manufactured unit ensures maximum system reliability with its 72-hour battery backup and robust dual-communication architecture.

Product Description

The Yokogawa AFV10D S2 acts as a high-performance Field Control Station (FCS) within the CENTUM VP distributed control system (DCS) environment. This unit manages complex process control logic and coordinates communication between the control layer and field instrumentation. Because industrial uptime is critical, the AFV10D S2 features a duplexed architecture, allowing redundant processor modules to operate in parallel. If the primary processor encounters a fault, the standby module assumes control instantly without disrupting the process.

To handle intensive computational tasks, the unit utilizes a high-speed VR5432 processor (133 MHz) and 32 Mbytes of SDRAM. This hardware foundation enables the AFV10D S2 to execute control functions with high precision and rapid scan times. Furthermore, the unit supports dual-protocol communication via Vnet/IP and FIO (Field network I/O). Consequently, users can integrate this controller into modern Ethernet-based plant networks while maintaining compatibility with a wide range of I/O modules.

Operational continuity is a core strength of this field control unit. It includes a sophisticated battery backup system that preserves memory for up to 72 hours during power interruptions. Its mechanical design follows the 19-inch rack-mount standard, which optimizes cabinet space in control rooms. Additionally, the AFV10D S2 features a ruggedized exterior that resists extreme thermal fluctuations and humidity, making it suitable for deployment in challenging industrial sectors such as oil and gas, power generation, and chemical manufacturing.
