Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can the SDV521-S33S2 replace a Fisher DVC6200?
A: Functionally similar (HART, single-acting), but mounting brackets and air connections differ. A retrofit kit may be required. Contact us for details.
Q: What is the difference between SDV521-S33S2 and SDV521-S33S3?
A: The S2 suffix indicates HART protocol; S3 indicates Foundation Fieldbus (FF). Ensure your DCS I/O card matches the protocol before ordering.
Q: Is the SDV521-S33S2 suitable for SIL-rated safety loops?
A: The standard SDV521 is not SIL-certified. For safety instrumented systems, consider the Yokogawa SDV with SIS certification or consult your SIS engineer.
Q: Can I use this positioner with a double-acting actuator?
A: No. The S33 designation is single-acting only. For double-acting actuators, select the SDV522-S33S2.
Q: Do you provide calibration certificates?
A: Factory calibration data is available for new units. Field calibration services can be arranged upon request.
