What Is the Fisher DVC6200 Positioner?
The Fisher DVC6200 is a digital valve controller designed to precisely control pneumatic actuators in process automation systems.
As part of Emerson’s FIELDVUE series, the DVC6200 uses HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, or PROFIBUS communication protocols to deliver superior accuracy, reliability, and advanced diagnostics for critical industrial applications.
Key Features and Advantages
- Non-Contact Feedback System: The DVC6200’s linkage-less feedback eliminates mechanical wear, reducing maintenance and improving long-term reliability.
- High Accuracy and Repeatability: Ensures stable valve positioning with ±0.5% accuracy, even under vibration and harsh process conditions.
- Advanced Diagnostics: Real-time valve health monitoring enables predictive maintenance and minimizes unplanned downtime.
- Flexible Mounting Options: Easily fits both linear and rotary actuators.
- Comprehensive Communication Support: Available with HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, or PROFIBUS-PA interfaces.
- Modular Design: Easy upgrades with add-on modules for feedback, limit switches, or position transmitters.
How the Fisher DVC6200 Improves Process Performance
The Fisher DVC6200 continuously measures valve stem position and actuator pressure, making micro-adjustments to maintain precise control.
Its Smart Positioning Algorithm compensates for system friction, supply pressure fluctuations, and dynamic load changes.
This leads to:
- Improved process stability,
- Reduced air consumption, and
- Extended valve life and maintenance intervals.
With its non-contact feedback sensor, the DVC6200 avoids wear common in traditional mechanical linkages, ensuring consistent accuracy over years of operation.
