Valve Diagnostics
The DVC6200f digital valve controller provides a
comprehensive library of valve diagnostic alerts. These
alerts are easily accessed with the 475 Field
Communicator. When installed as part of a F
OUNDATION
fieldbus communicating system, the DVC6200f delivers
prompt notification of current or potential equipment
issues directly to the asset management system.
Alerts assist in identification and notification of the
following situations:
n Valve travel deviation due to excessive valve friction
or galling (see figure 1)
n High cycle due to dither or improper tuning
n Total travel movement has accumulated beyond a
specified point resulting in packing wear
n Valve travel is above or below a specified point
n Various instrument mechanical and electrical issues
