High-Speed DCS Network Coupler Yokogawa AIP504-13 S1

Product Description

High-Integrity V-net System Connectivity

The Yokogawa AIP504-13 S1 (Model AIP504) is a specialized V-net Coupler Module designed for the Yokogawa CENTUM VP and CENTUM CS 3000 Distributed Control Systems (DCS). Serving as a critical communication bridge within the Field Control Station (FCS), this module facilitates high-speed, deterministic data exchange between the control processor and the V-net real-time control network. The AIP504-13 ensures that process variables, alarms, and control commands are synchronized across the system backbone with the precision required for mission-critical industrial operations.

Multi-Signal Versatility and Reliability

Engineered for diverse sensor integration, the AIP504-13 S1 is a multi-function interface capable of managing various analog signal types within a single hardware footprint. It supports high-density acquisition for current loops (4–20 mA), voltage ranges, and temperature sensors including Thermocouples (T/C) and RTDs (Pt100). To ensure continuous operation in harsh environments, the module features robust galvanic isolation between field-side channels and the system bus, protecting sensitive control logic from electrical transients and ground loops.
