Pulp and Paper Solutions
Control Valve Selection and Design
Selecting a control valve is more of an art than a science. Clearly,
a single product design is not sufficient for the wide variation of
applications across the entire pulp and paper process. Emerson
uses multiple approaches to address application-specific issues.
Industry experience by application, damaging effects of the
papermaking process, cavitation science, and the effect of
control valve size, type, trim style, geometry, and materials are
all critical to providing reliable solutions.
Special considerations may require out-of-the-ordinary control
valve solutions. There are Fisher control valve designs and special
trims available to handle high noise applications, flashing,
cavitation, high pressure, high temperature, erosive processes,
and combinations of these conditions.
Using Fisher technology for your tough papermaking
applications is the best way to achieve efficient, productive, and
safer plant operation.
FIELDVUE
™
Performance Diagnostics
Reliability is a key requirement for all process facilities.
FIELDVUE
™
digital valve controllers installed on Fisher control
valves protect your assets by giving a view of operating
characteristics such as supply pressure, control signal,
friction, and seat load. FIELDVUE Performance Diagnostics
run continuously, analyzing valve and actuator data while the
valve remains in service. If problems are detected, information
can be directed to the appropriate personnel automatically
when installed in a PlantWeb
™
system. These notifications help
you keep the control valve and the process loop functioning
optimally.
Reliable Fluid Control
Emerson has led the way in engineering and manufacturing
control valves and technologies that solve pulp and paper
customer issues. Correct engineering and manufacturing
of these technologies is critical to overall operation and life
expectancy. Selecting the right materials, the right noise
abatement technology, and the most appropriate control valve
for the application can be the difference between your process
running at its full potential or a shutdown.
Emerson provides the quality, accuracy, and engineered
solutions demanded by these difficult papermaking
applications. Local service is provided before the sale and
through the life of your mill. Emerson local business partners
and sales offices are backed by global manufacturing sites that
can effectively manufacture, measure, and assemble these
highly-engineered solutions. No matter where your Fisher pulp
and paper control valve or technology is manufactured, product
quality remains a constant. Parts and service are available to
minimize downtime and maximize throughput.
If you want help to ensure your next control valve and related
technologies are optimizing your process and maximizing
your profitability, contact your Emerson local business partner
or sales office. You will receive the support you need to
accurately size, select, and install the right control valve for your
toughest papermaking challenge.
