PRODUCT PORTFOLIO
CENTUM VP is an
Integration Production
Control System
used to manage and
control the operation
of industrial facilities.
CENTUM reliability is
the de-facto standard in the industry by its unique
Pair & Spare reliability technology and seven 9’s
availability. Through its evergreen policy, every release
is backward compatible with the former CENTUM
systems as it has been throughout its 35 year
evolution, which gives customers assurance for the
long term viability of the system.
CENTUM VP integrates plant information management,
asset management, and operation support functions,
achieving a unified operating environment. CENTUM
VP provide a greater degree of data integration from
digital field devices, packaged subsystems and other
data sources intelligently presented for utilization in
maintenance and operations with lower lifecycle costs
for installation and maintenance. Key items include
the fastest and highest capacity field control station
with a fiber optic remote I/O that provides both high
performance and greater flexibility of installation
for its remote I/O, a subsystem interface for PLCs,
RTUs, MCCs, and Safety Systems data Integration,
and support for the newer 64 bit Windows Operating
Systems – Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 server.
STARDOM is an intelligent
PLC/RTU controller with
advanced information
technology inheriting the
ruggedness of the Yokogawa
DCS. This modular family of network-based controllers
WELL PRODUCER is a
packaged solution specifically
designed for conventional and
tight/shale gas applications.
Included are a multitude of
AGA calculations, control
applications and report
functions. The solution is also
a perfect replacement for old
RTUs, providing enhanced data availability at the
operation center. Functions in this package include:
• Standardized Control and Monitoring
• Multiple gas flow meter-runs
• Reliable hardware architecture
• Easy configuration and customization
• Serial and Ethernet MODBUS communication
• Accurate gas measurement (API21.1 compliant)
• Verification and calibration logs
• Large flash memory for local logs
• Solar and battery option available

PACKAGED APPLICATION
VPS Partner Program
support a wide variety of control applications including
package unit control, oil and gas metering functionality,
and unmanned platform control. These flexible and
open controllers are based upon the IEC61131-3
standard with a portfolio library of advanced function
blocks to provide a more modular functionality in
process units. Custom configuration can be created
using JAVA for thin client access. STARDOM can
also incorporate data from intelligent devices through
Foundation Fieldbus functionality.
By embracing new digital and information technology
in reliable hardware and inheriting the rugged DNA of
the Yokogawa DCS, STARDOM offers evolved SCADA
solutions.

7. The FAST/TOOLS package is
a powerful and open SCADA
Host system. It utilizes Web-
based supervisory control
human machine interface,
OPC server/client functions,
data acquisition from a variety
of controllers and devices, alarm management and
historical data management. FAST/TOOLS supports
full redundancy of database and communication
providing high availability to the system. The flexible
communication capability and user interface, together
with the scalability allows the overall operation of a
SCADA application. FAST/TOOLS can act as a data
concentrator of multiple systems with a capacity of
a million tags in one server, as well as the universal
operator interface for multiple systems. Bi-directional
interface between the enterprise systems enables
quick decision making and optimization.
csTuner is on on-line/off-line PID
controller tuning application tightly
coupled to the CENTUM CS 3000
R3 and CENTUM VP platforms. csTuner is ideal for
when Control loops:
- are operated in manual mode frequently
- are switched to manual mode frequently
- must be continuously monitored
- are poorly stabilized thus increasing board
operator’s workload
Plant Resource Manager
(PRM) is a field device
maintenance and
management solution
used to monitor and save diagnostic information from
transmitter and valve devices. Utilizing a feature called
device patrol, PRM will periodically identify field device
issues and report them to a centralized location. The
cause of the issue can be easily identified through
clearly displayed diagnostics information.
Exapilot and Exaplog are operational efficiency
improvement packages that provide the functions
of modular procedural automation and alarm/event
analysis respectively. Benefits include
• Standardized and Automated Manual Procedures
• Improved Plant Operating Efficiency
• Improved Safety of Plant Operation
Exapilot automates Standard
Operation Procedures (SOPs) and
provides early detection of process
and device abnormalities through
OPC interface to process control
systems. Exapilot provides easy to
use flowchart-like tools that allow
operators to create and automate their own
operating procedures.
The Exaplog Event Analysis Package
provides tools for managers,
engineers and supervising operators
to analyze plant historical logs.
Exaplog uses trend graphs to
measure process events (alarms) and
operator actions and, along with pie charts and
tables, analyze event-type distributions, in order
to identify relationships between these alarms
and operator actions. As a result, unimportant/
consequential alarms can be identified and
inefficient operation sequences improved so to
“balance” the process and enhance efficiency.
Exaquantum is a plant-wide
information management system
combined with a powerful user
interface. The primary functions
of Exaquantum are to gather, store and aggregate
process and other business data. Interfacing to
a process control systems via OPC, Exaquantum
gathers data into a real-time database where the
raw data can be combined with laboratory and
other calculations to produce derived, higher value
information. In addition to normal historisation,
Exaquantum calculates ‘aggregation values’, which
is a process of data reduction (such as mean value
calculation, minimum/maximum tracking, standard
deviation, summation) over user-defined periods.
The aggregations are themselves historized allowing
them to be analyzed over long periods. As plant data
is the bedrock for all process information solutions,
the easily customizable role-based Exaquantum
user interface provides the necessary information to
support the decision makers across the enterprise.
