n Increased Uptime—The self‐diagnostic capability of
the DVC6200 SIS provides valve availability and
health evaluation without shutting down the
process or pulling the valve assembly from the line.
n Audit Documentation—Using ValveLink
™
software,
a time and date stamp on all tests and reports
provides compliance with requirements of statutory
authorities.
n Hardware Savings—When installed in an integrated
control system, significant hardware and
installation cost savings can be achieved. Valve
accessories such as limit switches and position
transmitters can be eliminated because this
information is available via the HART
communication protocol. In addition, an integrated
4‐20 mA position transmitter or limit switch option
is available.
n Improved Maintenance Decisions—Digital
communication provides easy access to the
condition of the valve. Sound process and asset
management decisions can be made by analysis of
valve diagnostic information through ValveLink
software, DD's, or DTM's.
Safety Certification
The functional safety assessment was performed to
the requirements of IEC 61508: ed2, 2010, SIL3.
The DVC6200 SIS digital valve controller, in the
de-energize to trip (DETT) or energize to trip (ETT)
configuration, meets the systematic integrity
requirements of SIL 3.
The DVC6200 SIS position monitor, in the position
transmitter or limit switch configuration, meets the
systematic integrity requirements of SIL 2.
Packaged Solutions
LCP100—A local control panel can be connected
directly to the DVC6200 SIS to provide manual control
of the SIS valve, including manual reset. A partial
stroke test can also be initiated with the LCP100
(see figure 1).
