ADAM® and SIPLUG®
- Diagnostics of Valves and Actuators
Measurement of Active Power allows Valve Diagnostics during Power Operation
Valves represent the greatest proportion of mechanical engineering components in industrial facilities e.g. power plants and refineries. The reliability of the valves has a decisive influence on the availability and reliability of industrial plants.
Based on active power measurements the technical condition of valves can be diagnosed dependably using modern analysis techniques.
This condition-oriented maintenance of valves on the basis of the latest diagnostic technology reduces the expenditure of inspections and maintenance.
SIPLUG® helps to reduce the cost of operation and maintenance by increasing the availability
