Product Description
DVC5000 Series digital valve controllers (figures 1-1
and 1-2) are communicating, microprocessor-based
current-to-pneumatic instruments. In addition to the
normal function of converting an input current signal to
a pneumatic output pressure, the DVC5000 Series
digital valve controller communicates via HART
protocol.
DVC5000 Series digital valve controllers are designed
to directly replace standard pneumatic and
electro-pneumatic valve mounted positioners.
