Yokogawa releases CENTUM VP R6.02 Integrated Production Control System

Yokogawa Electric Corporation announces the December 2 release of CENTUM VP® R6.02, a new version of the company's integrated production control system with enhanced functionality.

Ever since launching the CENTUM series 40 years ago, Yokogawa has continued to improve its flagship product. In keeping with Yokogawa's VigilantPlant® vision for the control business, the company has developed a number of new operation and monitoring functions for CENTUM VP, the latest generation in the CENTUM series, that will make it easier for operators to keep track of what is happening in a plant.

Oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and other downstream facilities have numerous suppliers to choose from and must deal with considerable variability in the composition of the raw materials that they receive, necessitating a number of changes to their processes. Further changes are necessitated by aging facilities and the need to vary production volumes to meet fluctuating demand. To respond to these challenges and ensure the safe and efficient operation of plant facilities, operators must be able to quickly and thoroughly check many different kinds of data.

Enhancements:

  • Real-time trend function for a clearer understanding of plant conditions
  • Preventing alarms from being misplaced or overlooked during handovers
  • Tight integration with ProSafe-RS R4.01
