Emerson has released an app developed for process control engineers in need of control valve diagnosis and maintenance within process plants.
The free mobile app helps engineers to perform initial sizing for Fisher globe control valves, as well as diagnose potential valve problems before damage occurs. Once sizing and diagnosis have been completed by entering the valve and application specifics, the app will display a Cv value and potential issues that can arise, such as cavitation or noise.
Features of the app include instant access to a Fisher control valve sizing tool, severe service control valve diagnosis information, a large technical library and a severe service industry application library with educational videos and reference collateral.
Severe service control valves are used in the most difficult installations within process plants and can fall victim to common issues, such as cavitation, erosion, high pressure, and other environmental challenges.
