Although few engineers now hesitate to use wireless for monitoring purposes, wireless valve control has not enjoyed such success.

Understanding and reducing noise from control valves is an important consideration for the process industries, especially those close to residential areas.

The Annual Valve Industry Leadership Forum will be held February 27-28, 2020 at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in New Orleans. This is the industry’s premier executive networking event, featuring executive-level analysis on the trends, management strategies, manufacturing innovations, politics and economics affecting the valve industry.

With these web-based tools, users can select and build their vacuum solutions online. They are designed to be used for two different use cases: Users with vacuum know-how can use LEYCALC to calculate the behavior and performance of vacuum systems in detail. The Pump Finder guides beginners to suitable products by a questionnaire.

A sensitive flow measurement is needed to identify the installed flow characteristic online.

Stadtwerke Lohr am Main has been supplied with 39 GT pneumatic piston actuators and 13 CK modular electric actuators to be used at two municipal water works which supply the town of Lohr am Main, in Bavaria, and surrounding areas.

Hydraulic actuators are driven by a high-pressure fluid (up to 4,000 psig) that can be delivered to the actuator by a pump that is remote from the actuator itself.

This workshop is designed to provide customers training on FCI thermal dispersion mass flow meters, flow switches, and level switches.

The primary factors driving the $5.8 billion market towards $7.05 billion by 2024 include an increased focus on automation across industries to improve operational efficiencies and initiatives like Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

The company looks to capitalize on this large and growing market focusing on comprehensive wastewater treatment generated during the on-shore production of oil and gas from either conventional or frac-drilled wells.

Third generational IQ multi-turn electric actuators have been installed on eight penstock gate valves to control the flow of wastewater entering the STP in Murrumba Downs, a suburb in the country’s state of Queensland.

Volume X is a product that captures the growth in all the flow technologies, including Coriolis, ultrasonic, positive displacement, turbine, variable area, and other types.

Control valves often determine the capability of the control system. Poorly sized and selected control valves will make tight control impossible regardless of the control strategy or tuning employed.

Volume X is the result of a full year of research, and displays in one glance a comparison of the revenues, units sold, and compound annual growth rate for all the main types of flowmeters. No other study exists that provides this type of all-in-one view of the flowmeter market.

Limit switch is a general term to describe the class of devices that are used to detect the end of travel of a valve, louver, or any other item that may be in motion.

Cavitation is the bane of the industrial valve designer & valve user alike. It causes severe damage to valve trim & creates sound levels exceeding 110 dB.

As pressure increases (controlled variable), the valve output would increase to open the valve in order to relieve the pressure.

ISA's up-to-date work on final control valve elements presents theoretical and practical information in an easy, conversational style,

The program replaces internal valve components to return valve function while restoring the removed parts for future use.

The TRICOR TCM 0325 Coriolis Mass Flow Meters detect air bubbles by monitoring the paint’s specific gravity. When the paint in pressure vessels begins to empty, air is introduced into the paint stream that results in a downward spike in paint gravity. Low paint specific gravity levels serve as an early warning for over-agitation and out-of-paint conditions.
