Yokogawa S9129FA Backup Battery Pack

Description

Overview

The Yokogawa S9129FA is a rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) backup battery pack used in Yokogawa distributed control systems, mainly the CENTUM CS 1000 and CENTUM CS 3000 platforms. When main power is lost, it keeps the module’s configuration memory and real-time clock powered. This preserves configuration data and timekeeping, so the system can resume correctly once power returns without having to be reconfigured.

The S9129FA is a legacy Yokogawa spare part. Distributors publish different nominal voltage and capacity figures for it, and no current first-party Yokogawa datasheet was found to settle them. For that reason, the electrical rating is not stated here and must be confirmed against the installed pack or the module documentation before ordering.

Key Features

  • Rechargeable Ni-MH backup battery pack
  • Keeps configuration memory and real-time clock powered during power interruptions
  • Used in Yokogawa CENTUM CS 1000 and CENTUM CS 3000 DCS hardware
  • Replaceable maintenance item for planned preventive replacement
  • Identified by Yokogawa part number S9129FA for spare-part ordering

Technical Specifications

Parameter Value
Part number S9129FA
Manufacturer Yokogawa Electric Corporation
Product type Backup battery pack
Chemistry Nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH), rechargeable
Used in Yokogawa CENTUM CS 1000 / CS 3000 DCS
Function Backup for memory and real-time clock

Applications

  • Scheduled replacement of backup batteries in legacy CENTUM CS 1000 and CS 3000 installations
  • Critical spares holding for DCS systems in oil and gas, petrochemical and power generation plants
  • Replacing a pack after a low-battery alarm, to avoid losing configuration data during a later power outage

Standard practice for critical control systems is to replace backup batteries on a planned maintenance interval rather than waiting for an alarm. A depleted battery combined with an unplanned power interruption can lead to loss of stored configuration.

Yokogawa S9129FA Storage and Handling Notes

The Yokogawa safety data sheet that covers S9129FA groups it with other Yokogawa battery part numbers under nickel metal hydride / nickel cadmium batteries. The pack is built from sealed cylindrical cells in metal cases fitted with a gas release vent, and in normal use there is no leakage or ignition hazard.

For spares handling, the data sheet asks for storage in a cool, dry, ventilated place away from oxidising agents, acids, alkalis and heat sources. The cells are non-flammable but can vent or burst in a fire. For shipment the batteries fall under UN3028 but are exempt from dangerous goods regulations provided they are securely packed and protected against short circuit. Used packs should be recycled where possible or disposed of under local rules.

Why Seven Star LLC

Seven Star LLC supplies Yokogawa DCS spare parts to process plants across Oman and the GCC. Before quoting, we check the part number, the module the pack fits into, and the connector arrangement against your installed hardware, because aftermarket packs can differ in connector orientation and lead length.

Also available: Yokogawa EJX910A Multivariable Transmitter

About brand
Yokogawa instruments are ordered by model and suffix code, a string such as EJX110A followed by option characters that fix span, materials and approvals. Founded in 1915 and headquartered in Tokyo, Yokogawa makes field instruments, process analyzers and the CENTUM control system used in refineries, gas plants and power stations. Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier listing Yokogawa pressure transmitters, flowmeters, temperature transmitters, analyzers and CENTUM I/O modules for users in Oman and the GCC.

Yokogawa product families on this page

Pressure is covered by the DPharp transmitters: the EJX110A differential pressure transmitter, the EJX530A and EJA530E in-line gauge pressure transmitters and the EJX910A multivariable transmitter. The ADMAG AXW is the magnetic flowmeter line, and the YTA610 and YTA710 are temperature transmitters. Analyzers include the FLXA402 four-wire and FLXA21 two-wire liquid analyzers, the TDLS8000 tunable diode laser gas analyzer and spare parts for zirconia oxygen analyzers, such as the E7042UD cell assembly kit for the ZR22 detector. Control hardware includes CENTUM VP I/O modules like the ADV161 digital input module and the YS1700 programmable indicating controller.

Where Yokogawa instruments are used

EJA and EJX transmitters measure pressure, level and DP flow throughout oil and gas, chemical and power plants. Zirconia oxygen analyzers and the TDLS8000 are used for combustion control on boilers and fired heaters. FLXA analyzers monitor pH, conductivity and dissolved oxygen in water and process streams, and CENTUM modules are bought as replacements for running control systems.

Ordering Yokogawa parts: what we need

Send the model and suffix code and the serial number from the nameplate, and for CENTUM modules the style code as well. For transmitters without a code we need span, output protocol, wetted materials, process connection, housing and the approval required. For oxygen analyzer spare parts give the detector and converter models, for example ZR22G and ZR402G, and the part number.
