Selecting valves for food and beverage applications
Temperature control is an extremely important variable in the food and beverage industry. If poorly controlled, the best-case result would be lost efficiency, with worst case a completely unusable...
View ArticleSelecting the appropriate valve housing and valve seal material
To ensure a long-lasting valve, the correct valve type needs to be chosen carefully. Also, selecting the valve housing and valve seal material is a critical selection step. Improperly selecting the...
View ArticleImproving precision process control with advanced valve actuators
Industrial process design and control are complicated affairs. There are many physical constraints and interacting variables that affect throughput, efficiency, product quality, operating safety and...
View ArticlePower plant valves require proper specification and maintenance
There’s no question about it — the arithmetic of designing, constructing and maintaining any power plant is huge. Significant financial and operational pressures exist to minimize startup costs,...
View ArticleVibration analysis detects issues in fluid handling systems
Vibration analysis systems are used to detect faults in industrial parts. The technology takes raw vibration data from components in a system and isolates individual frequencies to see where issues are...

As manufacturing processes become increasingly complex, it is common for fluid control applications to involve increasingly demanding requirements. These requirements can include extremely low or...
View ArticleSpecifying ball valves in pipeline applications
Pipeline ball valves (as shown in Figure 1) are routinely misapplied in the field. For example, isolation valves are often used in control applications, leading to poor flow control and possible valve...
View ArticleFunctionality and seating technology for floating ball valves
A floating ball valve is a ball valve with an unsupported ball — other than the two seats it rests on — so that the ball moves in the valve cavity to help seal off the line pressure. The key to ball...
View ArticleAchieving better sample isolation and analyzer responses with process stream...
Plants often use multistream sampling systems to monitor as many process streams as possible with a single process analyzer. Such systems allow a plant to select a single process stream for analysis...
