components forming a system
configuration that will provide a desired
system response.

What is CENTUM CS 3000

CENTUM is an integrated
production control system (DCS)
that is used in a wide variety of
industries to manage and
control plant operations.
In 1975, Yokogawa introduced
CENTUM, the world's first
distributed control system.
"CENTUM" comes from the
Latin word "CENT" meaning
"one hundred." The ending
"UM" is commonly used for
inanimate items such as
aluminum and stadium. CS
means Customer Satisfaction

Difference between DCS and PLC

Turn the clock back 10-15 years: The programmable logic controller (PLC) is king of

machine control while the distributed control system (DCS) dominates process control.
Today, the two technologies share kingdoms as the functional lines between them continue
to blur. We now use each where the other used to rule. However, PLCs still dominate highspeed machine control, and DCSs prevail in complex continuous processes.
DCSs performed hundreds of analog measurements and controlled dozens of analog
outputs, using multi-variable Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control. With the same
8-bit microprocessor technology that gave rise to the DCS, PLCs began replacing
conventional relay/solid-state logic in machine control. PLCs dealt with contact
input/output (I/O) and started/stopped motors by performing Boolean logic calculations.
When PLCs were solely replacements for hard-wired relays, they had only digital I/O, PLCs
now have many DCS-like control functions (e.g., PID algorithms) and analog I/O.
Since the PLC was integrated with Analog I/O it crosses the boundary of being just digital
and crosses to the realm of DCS in handling Analogs, Bus Systems, Distributed I/O and etc.
Also, since the DCS now handles logics of Digital I/O it also crossed the boundary to the
realm of PLC.
However PLCs are still faster, these were used for small system or a machine, Digital I/Os
and DCS was used for Analog I/Os.

Difference between SCADA and

DCS
SCADA is an abbreviation for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition .

DCS stands for Distributed Control System.

Normally, a SCADA system will get the data from a RTU (remote terminal unit). A RTU
runs independently, except for some control from the central supervisory system
such as fire fighting, emergency shut-down (i.e water & oil pipelines). The
communication path will be through a GSM, wireless technology, etc...
For a DCS system, it controls the process as a stand-alone system. It has the control
loops built into it's own controller. The communication path will be through
something like a LAN high-speed Ethernet, or other communications network. DCS is
a single unit, or a group of local units
However, a DCS certainly does Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA),
while a SCADA system often implements a (form of a) Distributed Control System
(DCS).
Nevertheless, in practice, SCADA is used for control and monitoring of geographically
large areas. These are typically found in distribution systems (electricity,
water/wastewater, municipal pipelines, etc), Transmission systems (oil and gas
pipelines or electrical transmission), and operations that cover a large region (such
as mines and oil fields).
