Yokogawa Electric Corporation recently introduced the YS1700-100/A06/A31 single-loop controller, a highly reliable controller designed for the industrial automation sector. It supports a wide range of input types, including thermocouples, resistance thermometers (RTDS), current and voltage, and supports a variety of control modes, such as PID, ON/OFF and limiting control. The ease of use of the YS1700-100/A06/A31 is reflected in its large backlit display and easy to use programming interface, while equipped with multiple alarm functions to meet the needs of a wide range of industrial applications.

One of the notable features of this controller is its excellent display clarity, thanks to the full dot-matrix color LCD, which ensures the display is highly visible even in direct sunlight in the early morning and late afternoon. The user can freely access the desired operation screen from the meter, trend, bar chart, alarm and event display as needed, and all parameters can be set through the front panel display.

YS1700-100/A06/A31 has a large programming capacity, with a program capacity of 1000 steps for text programs and 400 modules for functional block programs. It also has more powerful control and calculation functions, support IEEE754 format four-byte floating point calculation, with more than 100 kinds of calculation modules, including exponential and logarithmic functions, temperature compensation and pressure compensation.

In addition, the YS1700-100/A06/A31 also has a dual CPU construction, which can keep the manual control function and display function running even if one of the cpus fails. If the controller self-diagnosis detects a control circuit failure, the controller is able to pause the analog/digital output, switch to manual mode, and allow the operator to take control manually.

Yokogawa’s YS1700-100/A06/A31 single-loop controller offers a reliable choice for industrial automation with its high performance, user-friendly interface and powerful programming capabilities.
