Enhanced Valve Positioner

Feb. 1, 2006
The PMV D3 digital valve positioner has added Foundation Fieldbus support and gained ATEX EEX approval as an explosion-proof device.

Designed for control of linear and rotary control valves, the D3 has applications in a variety of industries and processes in which control valves are used, including oil and gas production and refining, pulp and paper, and food processing. While ATEX EEX approval provides further entrée into the European market, the addition of Foundation Fieldbus support means the D3 can communicate via a fourth protocol, in addition to 4-20mA analog, Hart and Profibus PA. With an onboard microprocessor, the PMV D3 offers a number of intelligent features.
