We realized that the size of control valves was very often defined just by the pipe dimension and not in relation to the effective flow characteristic of a specific valve type. This may lead to inefficiency, sometimes even to product claims and unhappy customers.
To reduce this kind of complains and to add value to our automation product range, we are pleased to announce the release of our new “Valve Sizing” online tool , which offers you and your customers a calculation platform to find the correct size for control valves.
The tool calculates the operation area in relation to the opening angle and effective flow.
These calculations used to be very complex and were made manually with our printed planning documents, which often led to the wrong valve dimension. With this tool, only the process parameters are required and the operation area of the valve is directly visualized in the diagram.
Benefits:
- Faster reaction to customer request due to online accessibility of tool
- Easy documentation & sharing
- Easy calculation of correct valve size
Additional Features:
- Print the document, ideal for project documentations
- Enter the process parameters once; mail it to yourself to store, or to discuss the results send it to a colleague. By clicking on the “Email”-button a specific URL is going to be generated with the process parameters stored.
- Our valves often have a higher flow rate than our competitors; with this tool it is easy to illustrate the value of our valves.
