The Business Case for Continuous Valve Diagnostics – Organisational Perspective: Scarcity of Skills & Expertise

Skilled valve specialists are scarce. How continuous diagnostics let a small team cover a large valve fleet across one or several sites.

Several factors influence how well a PID controller performs when regulating a process and holding its setpoint.

Data interfacing in APM Studio varies by connector type, and each interface has its own set of properties to configure – as with OPC UA.

The financial view on continuous valve diagnostics: where the OPEX savings come from, and how monitoring defers capital replacement spend.

A PID controller is a feedback control system that holds a process at its setpoint by continuously adjusting its output.

Controlling the Control Valve – Control Valve Control Methods/Systems – UReason

A control valve failure causes downtime, product loss and safety risk. Regular maintenance, inspection and monitoring are essential to prevent it.

The Risk Priority Number – Occurrence x Severity x Detection – gives you a quantitative measure of which failure modes to focus on first.

Learn how to quickly build solutions for Condition Based Monitoring (CBM), Predictive Maintenance (PdM) and deploy AI/ML models with APM Studio.

Solenoid valves control the flow of liquids and gases, and like any device they develop characteristic failure modes over time.

Electric actuators position valves, dampers and other mechanical components – and can experience several distinct failure modes.

Control valves regulate fluid flow across the process industries. Just as important are the people who look after them.
