Proven Industrial Tool 

BenchMark is a proven control valve diagnostics system with a successful 25+ year track record of helping valve end-users, OEMs, valve service companies and control valve re-manufacturers reduce control valve related maintenance costs, lower process variability and verify installed control valve performance.

Independent, Objective Testing

BenchMark is an easy to learn, easy to use industrial tool that provides all the control valve testing tools needed to satisfy the needs of your plant / mill / customers. Each turn-key system is complete with testing, record management and reporting functions included. All the tools to coordinate multiple units and integrate with your information management system are available. Accepting Control Valves Without Incoming Performance Inspection = Building Racecars but Not Starting Them Until Race Day! We are independent. We provide objective valve testing without the need to defend a control valve product line or an engineering legacy. We can help you develop and maintain an internal valve diagnostics training program to effectively arm your technical staff with this powerful maintenance technology.
Complete Independent Solution
Incoming Performance Inspection All the costs of accepting, storing, installing, setting-up, attempting to tune and finally removing a deficient control valve are paid for by the valve owner. What Does Accepting a Deficient Control Valve Cost You? Although these costs may be hard to track, they are real and significant. Avoidable production delays add even more expense. Don’t Bolt in a Problem Thoroughly performance inspect your process control valves on the receiving dock, whether from an OEM, repair vendor or internal valve shop, and reduce outage delays, unnecessary expense and lower process variability. Properly functioning control valves allow more loops to be successfully tuned and operated safely and efficiently in automatic control.
