Emerson is proud to announce the Fisher™ FIELDVUE™ DVC7K Digital Valve Controller has been named a 2024 Product of the Year winner by Control Engineering magazine. The DVC7K’s new design improves upon 30 years of field-proven innovation. The DVC7K instrument features Advice at the Device™ technology via flexible connectivity; easy-to-use interface; and allows you to analyze data in real-time to evaluate performance and reliability enabling your operation to run closer to setpoint, improving product quality with more accurate control.
Maintenance personnel can receive the data via their phone, tablet, or computer wirelessly without having to be in a control room at the plant location. The new valve controller technology improves the performance, reliability, and uptime of both on-off and control valves—and by extension, an entire process plant or facility—in a wide variety of process industry applications, and provides the information required to create streamlined work processes.
With increased remote connectivity and Advice at the Device’s local diagnostics, flexibility increases, providing the information needed for fast decisions and quick action to address arising issues. The DVC7K can be specified for all new valve purchases, and it can be retrofitted to most existing valve installations, in either case quickly and easily commissioned via the local user interface. With over three million FIELDVUE units sold and ten billion hours plus of field operation, long-term reliability and performance are proven in use, a key requirement as Fisher and other Emerson valves are often used in critical process industry applications.
