Valve & Actuator Health

VALVE & ACTUATOR HEALTH

Thousands of valves and actuators move the plant, but degraded stroke times, drift and passing seats are only found on test or after a leak, driving emergent work and safety-case questions.

Business Question

"Which safety-related valves are drifting toward their acceptance limits before the next surveillance?"

What SPoG Does

  • Trends stroke time, position error and leak indicators for every monitored valve.
  • Flags drift toward acceptance limits and ranks by safety-case significance.
  • Triggers surveillance or maintenance before a limit is breached.
