FIELDVUE Performance Diagnostics
 |
PD detects and tells you how to correct conditions that could lead to valve failure, preventing unplanned shutdowns. Valves are notorious for friction and deadband problems that add variability and cost you money. PD will uncover them so you can maximize throughput. PD will help you make sound predictive maintenance decisions.
Easy Diagnostics, No Roadblocks
“I can’t shut down my process to run valve diagnostics!” FIELDVUE DVC-PD instrument users can diagnose, analyze, and trend valve diagnostic data while the valves are in service. You are given a real-time, accurate picture of valve health, not just numbers and graphs, without impacting your process.
“I can’t sit at my computer all day watching the valves!” You decide when the DVC-PD instrument collects diagnostic data. Schedule it to collect data automatically or when triggered by a certain event. Or configure AMS ValveLink® Software’s Event Messenger feature to e-mail or page you when a critical problem is detected.
“Even if I can get the diagnostic information, I don’t know what the curves mean!” Know the condition of your valve at a glance by checking the “green, yellow, red light” feature in AMS ValveLink Software. Green, yellow, and red light symbols designate the level of urgency. Recommended actions are also provided.
