Remote Mount Feedback Unit
The DVC6205 base unit is designed to receive a valve travel signal via the DVC6215 feedback unit.
WARNING
Do not place feedback wiring in the same conduit as other power or signal wiring.
Personal injury or property damage, caused by wiring failure, can result if the feedback wiring connecting the base unit
with the remote feedback unit shares a conduit with any other power or signal wiring.
Note
4‐conductor shielded cable, 18 to 22 AWG minimum wire size, in rigid or flexible metal conduit, is required for connection
between base unit and feedback unit. Pneumatic tubing between base unit output connection and actuator has been tested to
91 meters (300 feet). At 15 meters (50 feet) there was no performance degradation. At 91 meters there was minimal pneumatic
lag.
1. Remove the termination caps from both the DVC6215 feedback unit and DVC6205 base unit.
2. Install conduit between the feedback unit and the base unit following applicable local and national electrical codes.
3. Route the 4conductor shielded cable through the conduit.
4. Connect each wire of the 4conductor shielded cable between the corresponding terminals on the feedback unit
and the base unit (refer to figure 24).
WARNING
The cable shield is typically not insulated. It is required that you insulate the cable shield prior to installation.
When connecting the cable shield in step 5 ensure that any exposed shielding does not contact the DVC6215 housing, as
shown in figure 25. Failure to do so can result in ground loop issues.
5. Connect the cable shield between terminal S on the feedback unit and terminal S on the base unit.
CAUTION
Failure to secure the cable wires in the support clips in step 6 can result in broken wires in applications with high levels of
vibration.
6. Secure the cable wires, using the support clips in the DVC6215 feedback unit (as shown in figure 25), to help
prevent shifting and movement of the wires.
7. Replace and hand‐tighten all covers.
8. For applications that require a THUM Adapter proceed to page 32. For DVC6200 SIS applications proceed to Special
Instructions for DVC6200 SIS on page 35. For DVC6200f PST applications proceed to Special Instructions for
DVC6200f PST on page 37. Otherwise proceed to Step 4—Configure the Digital Valve Controller on page 33.
