Short videos are great ways to show how to perform an activity, such as calibrating a valve’s actuator to move the valve stem based on the 4-20mA signal it receives from the control system. In this under 5-minute “how-to” video, Emerson’s Alex Quah Shu Min demonstrates the setup and calibration procedure for the Fisher 3582i […]
There is nothing like a brief “how-to” video. I use these often around the home as a filter to determine if it’s something I can do myself or if I need to call out an expert. We have many examples of these in our world of process automation. Here’s one from the Emerson team managing […]
One of the world’s leading spots to learn about new developments in industrial valves, valve actuators and fittings is the Valve World Expo. This event was held last month in Düsseldorf, Germany. During this event, Emerson launched two new products: the Bettis EHO Electro Hydraulic Actuator and the Bettis TEC2 Electric Actuator with Model 500. […]
As we close in on the Emerson Exchange conference October 6-10 in Orlando, I wanted to share a problem solving story. This story is typical of what you’ll find throughout the weeklong conference. Jeff Wilson, with Emerson’s local business partner, Puffer-Sweiven, was asked to investigate a control valve that was shaking the pipe due to […]
For those non-mechanical engineers who have heard the phrase “rack and pinion” but are unfamiliar with the term, Wikipedia defines it: A rack and pinion is a type of linear actuator that comprises a pair of gears which convert rotational motion into linear motion. A circular gear called “the pinion” engages teeth on a linear “gear” bar called “the rack”; rotational motion applied to […]
