Control System Requirements

There are several parameters that should be checked to ensure the control system is compatible with the DVC6200
digital valve controller.

HART Filter

Depending on the control system you are using, a HART filter may be needed to allow HART communication. The
HART filter is a passive device that is inserted in field wiring from the HART loop. The filter is normally installed near the
field wiring terminals of the control system I/O (see figure 2‐1). Its purpose is to effectively isolate the control system
output from modulated HART communication signals and raise the impedance of the control system to allow HART
communication. For more information on the description and use of the HART filter, refer to the appropriate HART
filter instruction manual.

Note
A HART filter is typically NOT required for any of the Emerson Automation Solutions control systems, including PROVOXt, RS3t,
and DeltaVt systems.

Voltage Available

The voltage available at the DVC6200 digital valve controller must be at least 10 VDC. The voltage available at the
instrument is not the actual voltage measured at the instrument when the instrument is connected. The voltage
measured at the instrument is limited by the instrument and is typically less than the voltage available.
