ProSafe-RS R4 adopts the same architecture as CENTUM VP R6 to improve

the engineering environment, thus greatly shortening the project schedule.

ProSafe-RS R4

N-IO (Network I/O): Smart Configurable I/O (SCIO)

In addition to conventional I/O modules dedicated for specific signal types (FIO module), ProSafe-RS R4

can offer the N-IO module, which handles different signal types at each channel. By concurrently

accepting both types of module,

ProSafe-RS R4 can deal more flexibly with a customers plant design requirements.

■ Features

– DI/DO/AI/AO signals can be handled at a single module. The types of I/O signal at each channel can be

changed with software.

– Remote installation up to 50 km is available by using optical cables.

– SIL3 can be achieved with single configuration. Redundant configuration is also selectable.

– Terminal block has a disconnect function of signal loop of field devices as a standard function.

– An N-IO baseplate is available for intrinsically safe barriers.

Field Commissioning Support Package (F-CSP): software for validating and configuring N-IO loops

Combined with N-IO modules, F-CSP allows the field devices testing and validation without having a

controller and an engineering station. This software is offered as an option of FieldMate.

Automation Design Suite (AD Suite)

AD Suite offers the engineering environment integrated with CENTUM VP. Its change management

function and other features improve engineering quality and efficiency throughout the plant lifecycle.

Based on the customers design requirements, the engineering environment can be separated, ensuring a

flexible configuration.
