Yokogawa DX2010-1-4-2
Product Introduction:
The DX2010 is a 4-channel advanced paperless recorder from the DX2000 Series by Yokogawa Electric Corporation. It replaces conventional chart recorders with a digital, compact, and high-performance solution for industrial process data recording and monitoring. The model suffix “-1-4-2” denotes the specific I/O configuration: 1 alarm output, 4 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs.
Detailed content

Technical Specifications:
- Number of Channels: 4 universal input channels
- Recording Speed: 0.1 second to 60 seconds per scan (selectable)
- Display: 6.5-inch TFT color LCD, 640 × 480 pixels
- Input Types: DC voltage (1–5V, 0–5V), DC current (4–20mA, 0–20mA), thermocouple (K, J, T, E, R, S, B, N, L, U, W), RTD (Pt100, JPt100, Cu50, JPt1000)
- Analog Output: 2 channels, 4–20mA DC, load resistance up to 600 Ω
- Alarm Output: 1 channel, contact output (30V DC, 1A)
- Communication: Ethernet (100BASE-TX), RS-232C, USB 2.0 (front panel)
- Power Supply: 100–240V AC, 50/60Hz or 24V DC
- Memory: 256 MB internal flash memory, supports SD card expansion
- Accuracy: ±0.1% of full scale (for DC voltage/current)
Functional Features:
- Real-time trend display and historical trend playback
- Event recording with timestamp accuracy of ±1 ms
- Built-in arithmetic functions (totalizer, batch totalizer, average, deviation)
- WEB server function for remote monitoring via browser
- CSV data export capability
- Alarm management with 4 alarm levels per channel
Structural Characteristics:
- Front panel IP65 / NEMA4X rating (when panel-mounted)
- Dimensions: 192 mm (W) × 96 mm (H) × 160 mm (D)
- Weight: approximately 1.0 kg
- Panel cutout: 182 mm × 92 mm
Working Principle:
The DX2010 samples analog input signals via a 24-bit A/D converter at a programmable scan rate. Data is stored in internal flash memory and simultaneously displayed on the color TFT screen. Analog outputs transmit scaled process values to external devices. Alarm outputs activate when measured values exceed user-defined setpoints.
Advantages & Highlights:
- Space-saving design eliminates need for paper, ink, and chart mechanisms
- Color display enables intuitive operation and clear trend visualization
- Ethernet connectivity supports FCS/FDT protocol for seamless DCS integration
- USB front-panel port allows easy data backup without opening the enclosure
- Wide input type compatibility covers all major sensor types
Applicable Industries:
Oil & Gas, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Power Generation, Water & Wastewater, Food & Beverage, Pulp & Paper
Installation Requirements:
- Panel cutout: 182 mm × 92 mm
- Mounting depth: minimum 150 mm behind the panel
- Ambient temperature: -10°C to +55°C
- Relative humidity: 10% to 85% RH (no condensation)
- Ensure adequate ventilation; maintain 50 mm clearance above and below the unit
Usage Precautions:
- Do not apply voltage exceeding 30V DC to input terminals
- Use shielded cables for thermocouple and RTD inputs to reduce noise
- Perform periodic calibration at intervals not exceeding 12 months
- Do not disassemble the unit in explosive atmospheres; maintain intrinsic safety ratings where applicable
