Yokogawa ANB11D-225/BU2B CENTUM VP Node Unit for Dual-Redundant ESB Bus

2026-04-20T00:38:24-07:00

Type: ESB Bus Node Unit
Price: 66.00

Product Overview

The Yokogawa ANB11D-225/BU2B functions as a high-reliability node unit designed for the CENTUM VP integrated production control system. This unit facilitates seamless communication between the Human Interface Station (HIS) and Field Control Stations (FCS) via a dual-redundant ESB bus. By integrating an optical repeater, it extends signal transmission distances up to 5 km, ensuring robust data integrity across large-scale industrial facilities. We supply this unit as 100% brand new and original factory-sealed equipment.

Part Number Breakdown

Engineering Advantages

Long-Distance Signal Integrity: The integrated optical repeater eliminates electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues common in copper wiring. It allows engineers to bridge vast distances (up to 5 km) without signal degradation or the need for intermediate boosters.

Zero-Downtime Power Architecture: The dual-redundant power supply modules prevent system shutdowns. If one power source fails, the secondary module instantly takes the load, maintaining continuous operation of critical industrial processes.

Simplified Termination: The BU2B connector unit includes a pre-integrated terminator. This design simplifies the physical layer setup, reduces the risk of reflection errors on the ESB bus, and accelerates the commissioning phase during site installation.

Hardened Industrial Durability: Yokogawa builds the ANB11D to withstand the thermal and electrical stresses of control room environments, ensuring a mean time between failures (MTBF) that meets rigorous B2B industrial standards.

FAQs

Is this unit compatible with existing CENTUM VP systems?

Yes, the ANB11D-225/BU2B integrates directly with CENTUM VP R5.01 and higher. It supports standard ESB bus protocols used in Yokogawa’s distributed control system (DCS) architecture.

Does the unit require a separate terminator for the ESB bus?

No. This specific configuration includes the /BU2B suffix, which means the connector unit already contains the necessary terminator. You do not need to purchase or install an external termination resistor.

How should I handle the optical ports during installation?

Always keep the dust caps on the optical connectors until the moment of fiber connection. Even microscopic dust particles can impede the 5 km signal strength. Ensure your fiber optic cables match the multi-mode or single-mode specifications defined in the Yokogawa hardware manual.
