Table 1-2. Specifications (continued)
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Meets EN 61326-1 (First Edition)
Immunity—Industrial locations per Table 2 of
the EN 61326-1 standard. Performance is
shown in table 1-3 below.
Emissions—Class A
ISM equipment rating: Group 1, Class A
Lightning and Surge Protection—The degree of
immunity to lightning is specified as Surge immunity
in table 1-3. For additional surge protection
commercially available transient protection devices
can be used.
Vibration Testing Method
Tested per ISA-S75.13 Section 5.3.5. A resonant
frequency search is performed on all three axes.
The instrument is subjected to the ISA specified 1/2
hour endurance test at each major resonance, plus
an additional two million cycles.
Input Impedance (Point-to-Point only)
The input impedance of the DVC6000 SIS active
electronic circuit is not purely resistive. For
comparison to resistive load specifications, an
equivalent impedance of 550 ohms may be used.
This value corresponds to 11 V @ 20 mA.
Operating Ambient Temperature Limits
(2,6)
−40 to 85C (−40 to 185F) for most approved
valve-mounted instruments
−60 to 125C (−76 to 257F) for remote-mounted
feedback unit
−52 to 85C (−62 to 185F) for valve-mounted
instruments utilizing the Extreme Temperature
option (fluorosilicone elastomers)
Humidity Limits
0 to 100% condensing relative humidity with
minimal zero or span shifts

Refer to tables 1-4, 1-5, 1-6 and 1-7, Hazardous
Area Classifications and Special Instructions for
“Safe Use” and Installation in Hazardous Locations
in Section 2, and Appendix B for specific approval
information.
Pollution Degree 2, Overvoltage Category III per
ANSI/ISA-82.02.01 (IEC 61010-1 Mod).
Auxiliary Terminal Contact: Nominal Electrical
Rating 5 V, <1 mA; It is recommended that the
switch be sealed or have gold plated contacts to
avoid corrosion.
For proper operation of the auxiliary input terminal
capacitance should not exceed 18000pF.
