CENTUM CS3000 SYSTEM

CONFIGURATION

Forms the BACK BONE of the DCS unit.

Integrated software, can handle both Small & Large

plants.

 Fully optimizes the overall system.

Very easy to learn and is very user-friendly.

CONTROL TYPES
FIELD CONTROL STATION (FCS)

 Performs dedicated control

functions.

 Consists of I/O modules,

nodes, marshaling unit,
cards.
 PARTS OF FCS UNIT
 REMOTE NODES: I/O equipments installed in
remote locations.
Communicates with FCS via a remote i/o bus.

 V-NET ROUTER: Connects the i/p network &

existing v-net networks.
 HUMAN INTERFACE STATION
(HIS)
 Unit which interfaces with the controller.
 YOKOGAWA provides 3 types of HIS :-
1. ENCLOSED DISPLAY STYLE,
2. OPEN DISPLAY STYLE,
3. DESKTOP TYPE.
 HIS consists of :-
1. DESKTOP PC or LCD MONITOR,
2. TOUCH PANEL,
3. EIGHT LOOP OPERATION KEYS.

 ADVANTAGES OF DCS
 REDUNDANCY,
 Less maintenance cost,
 Excellent information management,
 Less confusion & work load,
 Increases Automation, Boost Productivity & Profit,
 Reduction in cabeling n/w in Control Room.
 IMPLEMENTATION
 Using Functional Blocks, Start/Stop sequence drawn.
 Using Switch Menus inputs applied.
 Parts of the Drier given specific Tags.
 Controlling parameter is the Temperature.
 When temp.>140*C, steam supply is reduced using
PID controller.
 CONCLUSION
 The automation of the extruder and tunnel drier
system was implemented using DCS and found
the system is working satisfactorily with all its
operational and safety functions. The DCS
control gave us an upper hand in controlling the
extruder and tunnel drier system with ease of
operation at minimal man power. The
importance of DCS control system and the
various instrumentation engineering aspects
were observed and studied.
