Using AI to monitor for anomaly sign
► Preventing production stoppage due to unanticipated equipment failure, and operate the factory stably
AI can learn what normal operating data “looks like” by acquiring measured data on the GA10 from Sushi Sensor, recorders, loggers, and other devices implemented to the production equipment. This enables it to identify anomaly data and notify the user. Anomaly Detection looks at correlations among multiple data to make determinations, and can be utilized to catch signs of equipment abnormalities that are difficult for humans to discern.

► Predict the future with AI
GA10 uses acquired data to predict future data, and display predicted future waveforms along with real-time data on the trend screen. You can also set alarms against predicted data to detect problems in advance when they occur in the future so you can deal with them beforehand.
► GA10 Data Logging Software - AI notifies you of anomalies
Comprehensive monitoring by visualizing factory energy
► Support for visualizing power

Osaka Metro selected Yokogawa's Sushi Sensors to monitor vibration of huge ventilators.
Monitoring vibration trends prevents unexpected failures of air-conditioning systems in subway stations.
Environmental data (water quality, amount of flow) is measured on-site and monitored from an office.
When maintenance work of production equipment or trouble occurs, customers want to check the situation at the site immediately.
They also want to prepare easily for that (building a measurement system).
In response to these demands, the VZ20X and GA10 make it easy to construct a DATA collection system (on-site confirmation system) and quickly check the status of production equipment.
Customer can cover long-distance area and the VZ20X is very compact to install into small space of any equipment .
Due to revisions and additions to regulations, pumps used in water, sewerage, and drainage systems require flexible modifications and additional measurement points in their performance inspections.
In response to these changes in the environment and circumstances, the compact size of the Multi-Sensing Remote I/O Analog Sensing Unit VZ20X reduces the burden of expanding and reconstructing production and test equipment to fit the current installation environment.

the VZ20X installed near sensors such as temperature, humidity, and vibration, and enables automatic collection of data via the factory LAN. The data collection, monitoring and management can be automatically and regularly monitored with the data logging software GA10. As a result, it contributes to reducing the workload of workers.

In the painting process of automobile parts, failure or corrosion of electrodes can lead to quality degradation.
In addition, the current lack of electrode condition monitoring has resulted in the replacement of electrodes in a short period of time, a problem that is extremely costly.
To address these issues, we monitor the deterioration of production facilities and contribute to the realization of maintenance tailored to the conditions of the equipment.
Customers want to monitor the amount of electricity consumed by each production equipment in order to conserve energy in the factory, but it is not easy to install a measurement system in existing equipment, even from the installation and wiring conditions.
The VZ20X's compact size allows it to be installed for existing conditions. Accurate sensing also contributes to the visualization of power usage at production equipment.
Since performance evaluation tests of inverter drive motors are susceptible to noise, equipment with high noise resistance is required. Also, if the number of measurement points is large, a multi-channel measuring instrument that satisfies the measurement will be costly.
The VZ20X is noise-resistant and safe for accurate DATA collection even on noise-prone measurement targets such as inverters.
It is hard to go back and forth between the office floor and the test floor to check the bearing durability status.
That round trip time is wasteful and a heavy burden on man-hours. If you have more than one test floor, that's even more of a burden.
The VZ20X and GA10 make it possible to build simple monitoring systems. The system also enables remote monitoring of manufacturing and testing sites, contributing to reducing the burden on the site.
DATA of several production equipment in a semiconductor manufacturing factory is currently being checked by field workers, and the checking is in a difficult situation. Therefore, there is a growing demand for centralized monitoring within the factory.
The VZ20X allows installation to take advantage of existing space.
In addition, the GA10 contributes to labor saving in the field by remote monitoring.
Customers want to improve maintenance by predicting failures of existing durable equipment. However, existing equipment do not have enough space, and it is not easy to increase the number of sensors needed to grasp the condition.
To address this issue, the VZ20X’s compact size allows it to be installed between equipment, and data collection can be easily monitored via Ethernet (Modbus/TCP).
Caustic soda and hydrochloric acid, produced in electrolyzer plants, are fundamental materials used in varieties of industries; chemicals, pharmaceuticals, petrol-chemicals, pulp and papers, etc. Profit is the result of the effective production with minimized running / maintenance cost. Proper control of the process brings you stabilized quality of products with the vast operational profit.

In recent years, customers of processing equipment used in food and pharmaceutical manufacturing have increasingly requested visualization of equipment conditions.
This is because we do not know the current state of our production facilities, and maintenance depends on individual experience and intuition.
By accurately collecting DATA with VZ20X and visualizing the status of equipment, it is possible to understand the current status and perform appropriate maintenance according to the condition of the equipment.
The PLC in the existing injection molding machine does not have a recording function, but you want to add a function to record the production DATA and equipment condition DATA. Customers also want to easily realize these functions.
In response to these requirements, the VZ20X performs DATA collection of PLC and analog sensors, and the GA10 provides on-site monitoring and recording to support safer operations.
Controls temperature in, and acquires data from, various internal components of plastic film manufacturing equipment. An easy to use, high cost-performance data acquisition and monitoring system can be assembled by using Ethernet compatible instruments and GA10.
With advances in process automation comes a greater need for level measurement and control. As pressure on at the bottom surface of a liquid is proportional to the height of the liquid's surface, you can measure pressure using a differential pressure transmitter to detect the level of the liquid, acquire the data on the UT75A Digital Indicating Controller, and use the measurements to control the tank level.
Taking advantage of sensors already available in your system, you can simply add VJ series signal conditioners or the UM33A Digital Indicator with Alarms to easily build a monitoring system on a PC.
Yokogawa Electric began offering the environmental monitoring system "OpreX Environmental Monitoring System" (hereinafter, OpreX EMS) for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries in October 2020. OpreX EMS, which was launched simultaneously domestically and overseas, is based on customers' needs, such as regulatory compliance, diversification of operational risks, and high usability. When asking the person in charge about the development history and features of the product, it was found that it is a new solution that meets the company's business vision.
