The Fisher Fieldvue DVC7K digital valve controller features embedded edge computing in the form of Emerson’s Advice at the Device technology, which converts raw data into actionable information such as alerts or recommendations for maintenance personnel. All information can be viewed at the DVC7K’s local user interface, nearby via Emerson Secure Bluetooth, or remotely after it is transmitted via a wired digital network to a host. The local user interface provides indication of valve health at a glance via LEDs, and users can drill down from the interface home screen to find more information. The DVC7K can be specified for all new valve purchases and it can be retrofitted to most existing valve installations.
