Product Overview

The YOKOGAWA EB501-10 S2 is a highly reliable Bus Interface Module, designed to seamlessly integrate within Yokogawa's Distributed Control Systems (DCS). Operating primarily as a slave module, the EB501-10 S2 plays a crucial role in facilitating communication between a Field Control Unit (FCU) and an ER Bus Node Unit located remotely. This module is essential for remote I/O (Input/Output) applications, particularly within systems like CENTUM VP. It efficiently handles data exchange, ensuring real-time performance and effective control across geographically dispersed equipment.

Technical Specifications for the EB501-10 S2 Module

The YOKOGAWA EB501-10 S2 is designed to provide robust communication capabilities in industrial environments, ensuring reliable data acquisition and control command transmission. The key specifications of the module are as follows:

System Integration

The YOKOGAWA EB501-10 S2 is installed within an ER Bus Node Unit (e.g., ANR10□) to function as the slave communication partner. This module is critical for extending the reach of the Field Control Unit (FCU) to remote cabinets where I/O modules are installed. The ER Bus supports a bus topology with redundancy, enhancing system uptime. However, if the ER Bus Node Unit is operating in a temperature environment between −20°C and 0°C, the EB501-10 S2 requires a 10-minute startup time after power is applied to ensure stable operation.
