Overview

The Yokogawa S9649FA Industrial Control Module is a Ni-MH battery pack designed to provide backup power and maintain data integrity in the event of unexpected power interruptions. Unlike conventional I/O or processor modules, this battery module is specifically built for the CS1000 Distributed Control System (DCS) and integrates with Yokogawa’s Vnet/IP communication network to ensure smooth system recovery and continuous operation.

The module includes protective circuitry to prevent overcharging, overheating, and deep discharge, enhancing both battery life and operational safety. Its compact design and low power consumption make it ideal for installation in high-density control cabinets.

This battery module is especially critical in industries requiring continuous control and data retention, including oil & gas, chemical processing, and power generation.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Distributed Control Systems (DCS): Provides backup power for controllers and I/O modules during outages.

• Oil & Gas Facilities: Ensures data integrity in critical control systems during power fluctuations.

• Chemical Processing Plants: Maintains continuous operation of safety and process control systems.

• Power Generation: Supports turbine and boiler control systems with uninterrupted power.

• OEM Automation Panels: Integrated into custom-built control cabinets requiring battery-backed reliability.

Example: In a refinery control room, the S9649FA ensures that control logic and historical process data are preserved during a power loss, enabling rapid system recovery with minimal disruption.
