Product Description
The ALP111-S00 S1 is a high-performance PROFIBUS-DP master communication module designed for the Yokogawa Electric Corporation CENTUM VP and CS 3000 Field Control Stations (FCS).
This module provides a robust gateway between the Yokogawa DCS and decentralized field devices—such as motor starters, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and remote I/O manifolds—via the FIO (Field network I/O) bus. It ensures deterministic, high-speed communication and seamless integration of third-party PROFIBUS-compliant hardware into the CENTUM engineering environment.
The “S1” hardware revision enhances reliability for continuous 24/7 process operations, while its compact, precision-engineered Japanese design makes it ideal for modernizing plant-floor connectivity and supporting comprehensive asset management.

Application and System Integration
The ALP111-S00 S1 is installed in FIO node units (e.g., ANB10, ANB11) and connects to the Field Control Unit (FCU) via the ESB bus. It is widely deployed in:
-
Water and wastewater treatment facilities
-
Oil and gas process plants
-
Manufacturing and industrial automation systems
It consolidates data from PROFIBUS field devices into a unified CENTUM VP control architecture, supporting reliable monitoring and control.
Professional FAQ
Does the ALP111-S00 S1 support redundancy?
Yes. For high-availability applications, two modules can be installed in adjacent slots of a redundant node unit, providing a dual-redundant PROFIBUS master configuration.
Is the GSD file required for configuration?
Yes. While the ALP111 functions as the master, GSD (General Station Description) files from each slave device must be imported into the Yokogawa Builder software for proper communication setup.
Can this module be used with PROFIBUS-PA devices?
The ALP111-S00 S1 is a DP master. To connect PROFIBUS-PA instruments, a DP/PA segment coupler or link is required between this module and the PA field devices.
