Mobile diagnostics for fieldbus network control valves
Emerson Process Management's ValveLink Mobile software version 4.0 introduces mobile management of control valves on a FOUNDATION fieldbus network. Available on 475 Field Communicators, ValveLink Mobile 4.0 offers an intuitive interface featuring large touch-screen icons which allow operators to configure, calibrate, validate, diagnose and troubleshoot valves in the field.
The intrinsically safe Field Communicators extend ValveLink Mobile 4.0 advantages to hazardous areas where FIELDVUE digital valve controllers are located. Greater plant-wide access to control valve status means operating reliability is improved, while overall plant uptime is increased using troubleshooting guides embedded in ValveLink Mobile.
Designed to meet modern work practices, ValveLink Mobile 4.0 enhances worker productivity and improves asset management with its seamless integration of field diagnostics of HART and fieldbus instruments into the ValveLink software.
ValveLink Mobile 4.0 is pre-installed on new 475 Field Communicators and can be added to existing 475 and 375 Field Communicators using the Easy Upgrade utility from Emerson. Visit www.EmersonProcess.com/Fisher for more information.
