Overview Air-Operated Control Valve Problems For years, the process, power, petroleum and paper industries have recognized the potential value of effective preventative and predictive maintenance programs. Very significant time and cost savings can be realized if control valve problems are minimized. Problems when found, need to be diagnosed and corrected quickly. Many control valve problems can be stopped on the loading dock at delivery, either from an valve OEM, repair vendor or remanufacturer.  Preventing performance deficient control valves from entering your facility maximizes the time available to correct the deficiencies and minimizes your expense and risk to outage delay or production interruptions. Determining the mean time to failure for key devices is the goal of any modern maintenance reliability program.  Knowing the condition of these assets at the end of your outage cycle is key to understanding device degradation and potential for functional failure. Getting MTF (Mean Time to Failure) right minimizes production disruptions and costly downtime.  Testing prior to device removal for overhaul is very important. To accomplish this, you must have the correct tools. You have a spectrum of control valve types from many different manufacturers. You need a control valve diagnostics system that can test them all - independently and without the need to defend a product line or protect an valve engineering legacy.
