I received a question from an earlier post, End of Life Expectancy for Final Control Elements in Safety and Control Systems, by Emerson’s Riyaz Ali. The instrument & control engineer who came upon the blog post wrote…
Valves, Actuators & Regulators
Driving Combined Cycle Efficiency Gains
At the October 24-28, 2022 Emerson Exchange conference in the Dallas, Texas area, Emerson’s Justin Goodwin will co-present Steam-Atomized Attemperation: Duke Energy Hot Reheat Attemperator Successes.
Control Valves in Safety Instrumented Functions
When is it possible to use control valves like final elements for SIS [safety instrumented system] application? I am looking for other useful documents and technical requirements when it is possible to use only control valves as the final element instead of on/off valves and not in combination with it in the SIF [safety instrumented function] application.
Valve Stem Sealing Best Practices
The Emerson Exchange 365 community post, Article: Proper Valve Stem Sealing Best Practices, by Emerson’s Mark Nymeyer recaps the Intech article by Lisa Miller, Proper Valve Stem Sealing Best Practices.
