Product Description

The YCB141-M035 is a high-integrity 35-meter coaxial communication cable designed as the physical layer backbone for Yokogawa’s proprietary control networks. Engineered to the 10BASE-2 standard (Thin Ethernet), this cable facilitates deterministic data exchange within Centum VP and ProSafe-RS architectures. It is specifically optimized for V net, ER bus, and ESB bus configurations, ensuring that time-critical process data is transmitted with minimal latency and high resistance to industrial electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Technical Specifications

Installation and Environmental Resilience

The YCB141-M035 features a rugged construction that withstands the mechanical stresses and temperature fluctuations common in refineries, power plants, and offshore platforms. The solderless lug design is a key feature for field engineers, allowing for rapid and secure connections to system nests or terminal blocks without the need for specialized soldering tools. This specific 35-meter length is ideal for interconnecting system racks located in adjacent rooms or across large control room footprints.

Application Scenarios

This cable is primarily used to link Field Control Stations (FCS) to Operation Stations (HIS) or to extend the reach of the ER bus to remote I/O nodes. When configured with the /NL suffix, the YCB141-M035 meets CSA non-incendive standards, making it suitable for deployment in hazardous areas where ignition protection is a regulatory requirement.

FAQ

Q: What is the maximum segment length supported by the YCB141 series?

A: Following 10BASE-2 specifications, the maximum individual segment length for the V net/ER bus is typically 185 meters. The YCB141-M035 fits well within these operational limits.

Q: Is a special tool required for the M4 solderless lugs?

A: A standard torque-limited screwdriver compatible with M4 screws is recommended to ensure a gas-tight, vibration-proof connection without over-tightening the terminal.
