Poor valve reliability or performance can undermine process operations. Are control valves
working the way they are supposed to in your facility?

With FIELDVUE digital valve controllers, we
have not only seen a step-change improvement in
valve reliability but also in process performance.

A SINGLE INSTRUMENT SOLUTION
ACROSS YOUR FACILITY.

A Single Instrument Solution | 3

A single instrument solution can
meet your control valve reliability,
performance, and diagnostics needs
across your facility. The Fisher®
FIELDVUE™ DVC6200 Series digital
valve controller is a valve-mounted,
microprocessor-based instrument from
Emerson that brings intelligence to the
entire control valve assembly.

WHAT USERS ARE SAYING ABOUT
THE FIELDVUE INSTRUMENT

This technology makes it possible
to set a more aggressive loop strategy
that, at the same time, is more stable
and reliable.

Operations are stretching the limits
of their processes, so the FIELDVUE
instrument has evolved to meet these
needs. Keep your process in control
using vital, real-time information about
control valve assemblies. Information
can be accessed anywhere along the
loop. The FIELDVUE instrument is
available with either the HART® 5 or 7,
WirelessHART,® Foundation™ fieldbus, or
PROFIBUS® communication protocol.

The reliability of the FIELDVUE
DVC6200 instrument, plus its on-line
monitoring capabilities, enables our
operators to avoid manual checks
and valve repairs in areas filled with
ammonia vapors.

To optimize process control, I start by
improving control valve performance.
I’ve made sure that every critical valve
has a FIELDVUE controller.

MEET YOUR CONTROL VALVE RELIABILITY NEEDS
WITH SOLUTIONS AND EXPERIENCE.

The FIELDVUE instrument has logged
billions of operating hours and has
earned high praise from companies
that employ its technology to improve
plant availability. The FIELDVUE
instrument is very robust—units
installed over twenty years ago are still
performing today.

Count on proven technology.

A long-time favorite within industry,
the FIELDVUE instrument is proven
with over 1.5 million instruments
installed—the largest installed base
available today. It can fit on nearly any
control valve regardless of the make,
model, or size.

Linkage-less for more uptime.

A magnet array and Hall Effect sensor
are used in the FIELDVUE instrument
to detect valve position on sliding­stem and rotary control valves. With
no linkage to wear, loosen, corrode,
or vibrate, it can handle harsh
environments and nonstop cycling.

Protected components.

The sealed terminal box isolates
field-wiring connections from other
areas and keeps water and harsh
atmosphere away from internal parts.
Electronic components on the printed
circuit board are fully encapsulated
and isolated from the environment.

Survival in harsh conditions.

Built for extreme conditions, the
FIELDVUE instrument has proven
itself by surviving the most difficult
process conditions. Product testing
includes highly accelerated vibration
and temperature testing to help assure
reliable performance in your process.
Optional stainless steel housing
provides extended service life in hostile
and corrosive environments.

Separate Wiring Compartment

The sealed terminal box isolates field-wiring
connections from other areas of the
instrument and keeps water and corrosive
process atmosphere away from
electronic components.

Linkage-Less, Non-Contact
Feedback Technology

With no sliding parts to wear, loosen,
corrode, or vibrate, a magnet array and
Hall Effect sensor are used to detect valve
position. This technology provides a robust
solution for harsh environments and
nonstop cycling.

Modular Design
Makes Maintenance
Quick and Easy

The master module design
allows fast replacement of the
I/P converter, relay, gauges, and
encapsulated electronics
without disturbing the
mounting, pneumatic tubing,
or field wiring.

Position Transmitter

The optional integral valve position
transmitter eliminates the need for a
separate valve position transmitter.

Encapsulated
Electronics

Electronic circuitry on the
printed circuit board is fully
encapsulated and isolated
from the terminal box,
conduit, and plant
environment.

Integrally Mounted
Gauges

Supply and output gauges
are under the cover, fully
protected from the
environment and against
rough handling, helping assure
maintenance-free performance.
