Control Valve App

Keep your process running smoothly with our game-changing Control Valve App.

How well do you know your valves and when to act?

Control valves are the unsung heroes of industrial processes as they keep everything running smoothly, controlling the process’ pressure, temperature, flow rate, and liquid level. Without them, the stability, efficiency, safety, and quality of industrial processes would be compromised. And yet, these are often not monitored. With a scarcity of trained engineers, this becomes even more critical.

Maximize the value of your valves

The  Valve App creates value for Maintenance, Reliability Management, and Operations. Here are five ways you can benefit from it:

  • Reduce energy/product losses
  • Plan investments more accurately
  • Optimize maintenance planning for shutdowns​
  • Minimize on-site inspections
  • Lower risks by getting early warnings

Discover all about the Control Valve App in one brochure

Our Control Valve App is an intelligent solution that makes it easy to monitor and optimize the performance of your control valves. With real-time monitoring and analysis, the app can identify potential problems before they occur, reducing downtime and saving you money.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Valve App

What brand and type of valves and actuators are supported?

UReason supports all brands: air, electrical and electro-hydraulic actuators in combination with globe, needle, and gate valves. We also support most butterfly valves.

What data is needed for the Valve App?

Setpoint and Output (Valve position) of the controller of the control valves. If position feedback is not available, additional data on controlled measurement flow/level/pressure/temperature and environment is needed​.

What meta data of the valves/actuators is needed?

Actuator and valve  (model and make) and installation dates. If not available, we need to create an asset inventory. ​

How much data do I need to provide​?

For the basic version, you can provide up to one month of data. We recommend a minimum of one week of continuous data​.

How do you generate a work-order in the CMMS?

The valve app provides a REST Server that will list/provide the recommendations/orders for your assets. You can easily integrate this with your CMMS – IFS/Ultimo/SAP/MAXIMO/Upkeep.  All have a capability to interface to our REST Server and have REST-APIs to generate work-orders for the functional items. We can also connect with most of the own build CMMS,  please contact us for the details.

How does the Control Valve App differ from traditional process control systems and loop-tuning solutions?

The Control Valve App differs from traditional process control systems and loop tuning solutions by offering more insights from an asset management perspective and integrating with a CMMS. The app provides continuous information about the health of the asset, determines the remaining useful life, and automatically connects with your workflow. This makes control valve diagnostics very transparent and straightforward. It also provides multiple detailed insights for Reliability Engineers to better understand the condition and health of the valve, including root-cause analysis and benchmarking. In addition, the app offers insights for Process Control Engineers to calculate product and energy loss.
