-- 1 December 2006

Ads by Google

CENTUM CS 3000 R3 Release 3.08 is the latest version of Yokogawa Electric Corporation’s flagship integrated production control system. Enhanced functionality allows the integrated use of data from throughout a plant and eases the task of creating an environment for the efficient monitoring of plant operations. In addition, an alarm and event integration function has been introduced that sends only optimal alarms to the right person at the right time. This counters the increase in information, in particular the increased number of alarms that are generated as a result of system integration, and contributes to the implementation of safe operations. The Consolidated Alarm Management Software Package for Human Interface Station (CAMS for HIS) offers a real-time alarm management function that works in harmony with a distributed control system (DCS) and provides multiple approaches to alarm management. Yokogawa has also enhanced the gateway functions of its DCS in order to achieve integration of the operation and monitoring of other vendors’ DCSs and programmable controllers (PLCs).
