Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to determine whether the AAI135-H00 S1 is the right module for your application:
- Channel count needed ≤ 16: AAI135 is sufficient; for >16 channels, add additional modules or consider AAI841 multi-function cards
- HART communication required: Upgrade to AAI143-H00 S1 for HART-enabled smart transmitter diagnostics
- Intrinsic safety (IS) required: Specify the IS-rated suffix variant; confirm with YOKOGAWA’s IS certification documentation
- Redundancy required: Pair with a second AAI135 module and configure dual-redundant I/O in CENTUM VP
- Budget-constrained replacement: Refurbished/tested AAI135-H00 S1 units from certified distributors (such as Konmask) offer significant cost savings vs. new OEM pricing
- Migration project: If migrating from CS 3000 to CENTUM VP, the AAI135-H00 S1 is directly reusable — no hardware change required
Quality Assurance & Sourcing

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can the AAI141 replace the AAI135 directly?
A: Yes, in most CENTUM VP applications the AAI141-H00 S1 is a drop-in replacement. Verify I/O nest slot compatibility and re-download the module configuration in the Engineering Environment.
Q: Is the AAI135-H00 S1 compatible with CENTUM CS 3000?
A: Yes. The AAI135 series is natively supported in CS 3000 R3.x and above, as well as all CENTUM VP versions.
Q: Can I use a third-party analog input module in my YOKOGAWA DCS?
A: Technically possible with signal conditioning, but not recommended for production systems. Third-party modules bypass YOKOGAWA’s native diagnostics and may void system certifications.
Q: What is the difference between AAI135-H00 S1 and AAI135-H00 S2?
A: S2 is a later software revision with minor firmware improvements. Both are functionally equivalent and interchangeable in the field.
Q: Do you supply refurbished units?
A: Yes. Konmask supplies both new and refurbished AAI135-H00 S1 modules. All refurbished units are tested to OEM specifications and carry a 12-month warranty.
Q: How do I verify authenticity?
A: Each unit includes a YOKOGAWA serial number label. We provide traceability documentation and can assist with OEM serial number verification upon request.
