TECHNICAL DATA

Fluke 710 mA Loop Valve Tester

Smart Control Valve Testing is now easier than ever

The Fluke 710 Valve Testing Loop Calibrator is designed to enable
users to perform quick, easy tests on HART smart control valves.
Featuring built-in test procedures and an intuitive user interface, the
710 allows users to quickly and easily perform valve tests, while the
valve test quick-check results provide at-a-glance diagnositcs help
you make maintenance decisions faster than ever. The valve health
quick-check results let you know whether your valve is in good,
marginal or in bad operating condition so you can quickly decide
whether additional maintenance is necessary.

Valve testing and HART communication in a precision
loop calibrator

With the 710 Valve Testing Loop Calibrator’s built in HART
communication function, users can source a 4-20 mA signal to cause
the smart control valve to move, while simultaneously interpreting
the valve’s HART feedback signal to determine whether the valve is
moving to the expected position. In addition to positional information,
the measured pressure delivered from the valve’s internal I/P (which
moves the valve) can be determined through the HART communication
protocol.

KEY VALVE TESTING FUNCTIONS

Valve signature test, speed test, step test,
manual test, bump/partial stroke test

KEY MA LOOP CALIBRATOR
FUNCTIONS

mA source, mA simulate, mA read, mA
read/loop power, and volts read

VALVETRACK™ SOFTWARE

Enables upload to a PC for further in-depth
analysis of valve measurements that are
logged and recorded to memory

The 710 has built-in test procedures that automatically increase
and change the mA signal while monitoring the HART position and
pressure feedback from the control valve, giving you a better overall
picture of valve health at the simple push of a button.

Pre-configured valve tests, at-a-glance answers

Valve test routines built into the 710 include:

• Manual testing; manually change the mA signal and view the

HART position and pressure variable information

• Full range ramping of the mA signal from 4 to 20 to 4 mA while

recording the 0-100-0% position, or the pressures applied that
move the valve from 0-100-0%

• Stepping the mA signal on the input to the valve in steps and

evaluating the valves response to the mA input changes

• Speed tests to determine how fast the valve can open or close

• Bump and partial stroke tests that help test valves over a portion

of their range so they can be tested in a live process

Performance test comparison in Fluke ValveTrack Software

ValveTrack™ Software enables further analysis and
trending

Valve tests that are logged and recorded to memory in the 710 are
available to upload to included ValveTrack™ analysis software.

ValveTrack™ software enables you to:

• Upload, print and plot logged valve tests taken in the field

• Compare previous uploaded tests to recent tests

• View valve test history by HART Tag ID

• Export valve test data to CSV for additional analysis in Microsoft

Excel®

Saving time, getting answers

In addition, the 710 offers:

• Logging of HART data in the field. Once recorded by the 710

in the field, the ValveTrack™ software can upload the HART
configuration of up to (20) HART devices in your plant and
output data in either (.csv) or (.txt) format.

• Data logged mA loop measurements and HART data can be

recorded from a particular transmitter for troubleshooting and
loop tuning. The data log feature offers selectable capture with
recording intervals of 1 to 60 seconds and a logging capacity of
9800 records or 99 individual sessions. Each record contains the
mA measurement and all four process variables.
