Product Description
The NFCP501-W05/M01 is a high-availability processing unit engineered for the Yokogawa STARDOM FCN (Field Control Node) architecture. It serves as the intelligent core of the autonomous controller, executing complex logic control, regulatory algorithms, sequence management, and data logging tasks.
Unlike conventional PLCs, this module combines industrial-grade controller reliability with PC-class networking capability. It supports dual-redundant Ethernet configurations, ensuring continuous operation and zero process interruption in critical control loops.
The “W05” designation represents a specific software license or hardware revision within the NFCP501 series, while the “M01” suffix typically identifies the memory card or sub-module configuration. The unit mounts directly onto an FCN base module and provides high-speed backplane communication with connected I/O modules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the NFCP501-W05/M01 support hot-swapping?
In a redundant FCN configuration, the standby NFCP501-W05/M01 can be replaced without interrupting the active controller’s operation.
What is the difference between NFCP501 and NFCP550?
The NFCP501-W05/M01 is the standard-performance CPU for FCN nodes, while the NFCP550 series typically offers enhanced processing performance or compatibility with later-generation FCN-500 hardware.
Is there a built-in serial port?
Primary communication is handled via the dual Ethernet ports. Serial communication can be implemented using dedicated FCN communication modules.
