for assistance. Provide the product serial number and all
Inspection and Maintenance Schedules
All products must be inspected periodically and maintained as needed. The schedule for inspection can only be
determined based on the severity of your service conditions. Your installation might also be subject to inspection
schedules set by applicable governmental codes and regulations, industry standards, company standards, or plant
standards.
In order to avoid increasing dust explosion risk, periodically clean dust deposits from all equipment.
When equipment is installed in a hazardous area location (potentially explosive atmosphere), prevent sparks by proper
tool selection and avoiding other types of impact energy. Control Valve surface temperature is dependent upon
process operating conditions.
WARNING
Control valve surface temperature is dependent upon process operating conditions. Personal injury or property damage,
caused by fire or explosion, can result if the valve body surface temperature exceeds the acceptable temperature for the
hazardous area classification. To avoid an increase of instrumentation and/or accessory surface temperature due to process
operating conditions, ensure adequate ventilation, shielding, or insulation of control valve components installed in a
potentially hazardous or explosive atmosphere.

Installation
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before mounting
the product:
D Do not install any system component where service conditions could exceed the limits given in this manual or the limits
on the appropriate nameplates. Use pressure‐relieving devices as required by government or accepted industry codes
and good engineering practices.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any installation operations.
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Disconnect any operating lines providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
D Use bypass valves or completely shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
from both sides of the valve.
D Vent the pneumatic actuator loading pressure and relieve any actuator spring precompression so the actuator is not
applying force to the valve stem; this will allow for the safe removal of the stem connector.
D Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
D The valve packing box might contain process fluids that are pressurized, even when the valve has been removed from the
pipeline. Process fluids might spray out under pressure when removing the packing hardware or packing rings, or when
loosening the packing box pipe plug. Cautiously remove parts so that fluid escapes slowly and safely.
D The instrument is capable of supplying full supply pressure to connected equipment. To avoid personal injury and
equipment damage, caused by sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts, make sure the supply pressure
never exceeds the maximum safe working pressure of any connected equipment.
D Severe personal injury or property damage may occur from an uncontrolled process if the instrument air supply is not
clean, dry and oil‐free, or noncorrosive gas. While use and regular maintenance of a filter that removes particles larger
than 40 microns will suffice in most applications, check with an Emerson Automation Solutions field office and Industry
Instrument air quality standards for use with corrosive gas or if you are unsure about the proper amount or method of
air filtration or filter maintenance.
D For corrosive media, make sure the tubing and instrument components that contact the corrosive media are of suitable
corrosiion-resistant material. The use of unsuitable materials might result in personal injury or property damage due to
the uncontrolled release of the corrosive media.
D If natural gas or other flammable or hazardous gas is to be used as the supply pressure medium and preventive
measures are not taken, personal injury and property damage could result from fire or explosion of accumulated gas or
from contact with hazardous gas. Preventive measures may include, but are not limited to: Remote venting of the unit,
re‐evaluating the hazardous area classification, ensuring adequate ventilation, and the removal of any ignition sources.
D To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the sudden release of process pressure, use a high‐pressure
regulator system when operating the controller or transmitter from a high‐pressure source.
The instrument or instrument/actuator assembly does not form a gas‐tight seal, and when the assembly is in an
enclosed area, a remote vent line, adequate ventilation, and necessary safety measures should be used. Vent line piping
should comply with local and regional codes and should be as short as possible with adequate inside diameter and few
bends to reduce case pressure buildup. However, a remote vent pipe alone cannot be relied upon to remove all
hazardous gas, and leaks may still occur.
D Personal injury or property damage can result from the discharge of static electricity when flammable or hazardous
gases are present. Connect a 14 AWG (2.08 mm
2
) ground strap between the instrument and earth ground when
3
DVC6000 Digital Valve Controller
September 2018
flammable or hazardous gases are present. Refer to national and local codes and standards for grounding
requirements.
D Personal injury or property damage caused by fire or explosion may occur if electrical connections are attempted in an
area that contains a potentially explosive atmosphere or has been classified as hazardous. Confirm that area
classification and atmosphere conditions permit the safe removal of covers before proceeding.
D For instruments with a hollow liquid level displacer, the displacer might retain process fluid or pressure. Personal injury
or property damage due to sudden release of pressure, contact with hazardous fluid, fire, or explosion can be caused by
puncturing, heating, or repairing a displacer that is retaining process pressure or fluid. This danger may not be readily
apparent when disassembling the sensor or removing the displacer. Before disassembling the sensor or removing the
displacer, observe the appropriate warnings provided in the sensor instruction manual.
D Personal injury or property damage, caused by fire or explosion from the leakage of flammable or hazardous gas, can
result if a suitable conduit seal is not installed. For explosion‐proof applications, install the seal no more than 457 mm
(18 inches) from the instrument when required by the nameplate. For ATEX applications use the proper cable gland
certified to the required category. Equipment must be installed per local and national electric codes.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
D If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING in the Maintenance section.

Instruments Mounted on Tank or Cage
WARNING
For instruments mounted on a tank or displacer cage, release trapped pressure from the tank and lower the liquid level to a
point below the connection. This precaution is necessary to avoid personal injury from contact with the process fluid.
Instruments With a Hollow Displacer or Float
WARNING
For instruments with a hollow liquid level displacer, the displacer might retain process fluid or pressure. Personal injury
and property might result from sudden release of this pressure or fluid. Contact with hazardous fluid, fire, or explosion can
be caused by puncturing, heating, or repairing a displacer that is retaining process pressure or fluid. This danger may not
be readily apparent when disassembling the sensor or removing the displacer. A displacer that has been penetrated by
process pressure or fluid might contain:
D pressure as a result of being in a pressurized vessel
D liquid that becomes pressurized due to a change in temperature
D liquid that is flammable, hazardous or corrosive.
Handle the displacer with care. Consider the characteristics of the specific process liquid in use.Before removing the
displacer, observe the appropriate warnings provided in the sensor instruction manual.

Description
DVC6000 SIS digital valve controllers (figure 1-1) are
communicating, microprocessor-based
current-to-pneumatic instruments. The DVC6000 SIS
digital valve controller for Safety Instrumented System
(SIS) Solutions monitors the health of final control
elements and solenoid valves; the primary function of
the DVC6000 SIS is to actuate its pneumatic outputs
in response to a demand signal from a logic solver,
which should move the valve to the configured safe
state.
Using HART communications protocol the digital
valve controller allows easy access to information
critical to process operation. You can gain information
from the principal component of the process, the
control valve itself, using the Field Communicator at
the valve or at a field junction box, or by using a
personal computer or operator’s console within the
control room.
DVC6000 SIS instruments permits partial stroking of
the valve to minimize the chance of valve failure upon
a safety demand and, consequently, the possibility of
catastrophic situations. A partial stroke test verifies
valve movement with a small ramp to the input. This
ramp is small enough not to disrupt production, but is
large enough to confirm that the valve is working.
DVC6000 SIS instruments also provide state-of-the-art

testing methods, which reduce testing and
maintenance time, improve system performance, and
provide diagnostic capabilities.
Using a personal computer and ValveLink software,
AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager, or a Field
Communicator, you can perform several operations
with the DVC6000 SIS digital valve controller. You can

Diagnostic information is available to aid you when
troubleshooting. Input and output configuration
parameters can be set, and the digital valve controller
can be calibrated. Refer to table 1-1 for details on the
capabilities of the DVC6000 SIS.
Using the HART protocol, information from the field
can be integrated into control systems or be received
on a single loop basis.

The DVC6000 SIS can be used with either air or
natural gas as the supply medium. If using natural gas
as the pneumatic supply medium, natural gas will be
used in the pneumatic output connections of the
DVC6000 SIS to any connected equipment. In normal
operation the unit will vent the supply medium into the
surrounding atmosphere unless it is remotely vented.
When using natural gas as the supply medium, in a
non-hazardous location in a confined area, remote
venting of the unit is required. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury, property damage, and area
re-classification. For hazardous locations remote
venting of the unit may be required, depending upon
the area classification, and as specified by the
requirements of local, regional, and national codes,
rules and regulations. Failure to do so when necessary
could result in personal injury, property damage, and
area re-classification.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property
damage from sudden release of
process pressure or bursting of parts.
Before proceeding with any
Installation procedures:
Always wear protective clothing,
gloves, and eyewear.
Personal injury or property
damage may result from fire or
explosion if natural gas is used as the
supply medium and appropriate
preventive measures are not taken.
Preventive measures may include, but
are not limited to, one or more of the
following: Remote venting of the unit,
re-evaluating the hazardous area
classification, ensuring adequate
ventilation, and the removal of any
ignition sources. For information on
remote venting of this controller, refer
to page 2-22.
If installing this into an existing
application, also refer to the
WARNING at the beginning of the
Maintenance section of this
instruction manual.
Check with your process or
safety engineer for any additional
measures that must be taken to
protect against process media.
WARNING
To avoid static discharge from the
cover when flammable gases or dust
are present, do not rub or clean the
cover with solvents. To do so could
result in a spark that may cause the
flammable gases or dust to explode,
resulting in personal injury or
property damage. Clean with a mild
detergent and water only.
WARNING
This unit vents the supply medium
into the surrounding atmosphere.
When installing this unit in a
non-hazardous (non-classified)
location in a confined area, with
natural gas as the supply medium,
you must remotely vent this unit to a
safe location. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury or property
damage from fire or explosion, and
area re-classification.
When installing this unit in a
hazardous (classified) location remote
venting of the unit may be required,
depending upon the area
classification, and as specified by the
requirements of local, regional, and
national codes, rules and regulations.
Failure to do so when necessary
could result in personal injury or
property damage from fire or
explosion, and area re-classification.
Vent line piping should comply with
local and regional codes and should
be as short as possible with adequate
inside diameter and few bends to
reduce case pressure buildup.

DVC6010 SIS on Sliding-Stem Actuators
Up to 102 mm (4 Inches) of Travel
If ordered as part of a control valve assembly, the
factory mounts the digital valve controller on the
actuator, makes pneumatic connections to the
actuator, sets up, and calibrates the instrument. If you
purchased the digital valve controller separately, you
will need a mounting kit to mount the digital valve
controller on the actuator. See the instructions that
come with the mounting kit for detailed information on
mounting the digital valve controller to a specific
actuator model.
The DVC6010 SIS digital valve controller mounts on
sliding-stem actuators with up to 102 mm (4 inch)
travel. Figure 2-1 shows a typical mounting on an
actuator with up to 51 mm (2 inch) travel. Figure 2-2
shows a typical mounting on actuators with 51 to 102
mm (2 to 4 inch) travel. For actuators with greater than
102 mm (4-inch) travel, see the guidelines for
mounting a DVC6020 SIS digital valve controller.
Do not use the stainless steel
DVC6010S SIS in high vibration service
where the mounting bracket uses
standoffs (spacers) to mount to the
actuator.
Refer to the following guidelines when mounting on
sliding-stem actuators with up to 4 inches of travel.
Where a key number is referenced, refer to figure 8-1.
1. Isolate the control valve from the process line
pressure and release pressure from both sides of the
valve body. Shut off all pressure lines to the actuator,
releasing all pressure from the actuator. Use lock-out
procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the equipment.
2. Attach the connector arm to the valve stem
connector.
3. Attach the mounting bracket to the digital valve
controller housing.
