Yokogawa AMM42-S3 Multiplexer Input Module

Product Introduction

The Yokogawa AMM42-S3 is a high-performance multiplexer input module designed for use in industrial automation and process control systems. Part of Yokogawa’s field-proven CENTUM control system family, the AMM42-S3 is engineered for reliable and accurate analog signal acquisition in demanding environments. It supports multi-channel analog inputs and offers robust signal processing capabilities. With its modular design, the AMM42-S3 provides easy integration into distributed control systems (DCS), supporting efficient and centralized monitoring of multiple field devices.

The module is specifically designed to handle a large number of analog signals using a multiplexing method, which allows significant space savings and reduces wiring complexity in large-scale process control applications. Featuring excellent electrical isolation, high noise immunity, and extensive diagnostics, it is a trusted solution for critical operations in industries such as oil & gas, power generation, petrochemical, and water treatment.
