Yokogawa CP401-10 CENTUM VP/CS 3000 Communication Processor Module

The CP401-10 (Model: CP401-10) is a high-performance communication interface and processor module designed for Yokogawa’s CENTUM VP and CS 3000 Distributed Control Systems (DCS). This module serves as a critical bridge between the DCS core and external subsystems, acting as a gateway for diverse industrial protocols. Beyond its communication role, the CP401-10 supports complex pulse input processing, including voltage and current pulses from field transmitters. Engineered for 24/7 continuous operation, it provides the deterministic data throughput required for mission-critical monitoring and control in refineries, power plants, and chemical processing facilities.

Multi-Protocol Gateway and Pulse Processing

The CP401-10 provides dual-functionality that simplifies system architecture by combining high-speed pulse acquisition with advanced communication gateway capabilities. It is specifically optimized for applications involving flow measurement and rotating equipment where high-frequency pulse signals (up to 10 kHz) must be converted into engineering units for the DCS. Its robust isolation (500 VAC) ensures that field-side electrical transients do not reach the sensitive system backplane, maintaining overall plant safety and hardware longevity.

System Reliability and Data Integrity

To ensure high availability, the CP401-10 (Model: CP401-10) includes dual memory card slots, allowing for redundant storage of configuration parameters and critical communication logs. This feature enables rapid module replacement and commissioning, as the system can automatically reload the configuration from the memory card upon power-up. The module is built with industrial-grade components designed to withstand the electromagnetic interference (EMI) typical of heavy manufacturing environments, ensuring stable data exchange between the enterprise network and field instrumentation.
