Activate diagnostic alerts to leverage digital valve controller capabilities
Digital valve controllers provide many more benefits than a simple valve positioner, which end users can deploy to improve operations. A digital valve controller ensures the control valve position matches the commanded signal, but it also simplifies and automates valve commissioning and calibration, and it provides a means to provide significant control valve assembly data to the control system.

Position transmitters improve critical isolation valve reliability
Automated isolation on/off valves are found throughout most process plants, where they are used to arrest reactant flows, isolate and protect equipment, divert process media and perform other functions. Many of these tasks are paramount for process operations, and some are part of the safety shutdown systems that protect plant personnel and equipment. Isolation valves are typically outfitted with open and closed limit switches to provide valve position feedback.
Improved oil separator control strategies
Stringent methane emission regulations forced the replacement of most natural gas-powered level controllers in oilfield separators. Many have been replaced with electric drive valves and on/off level control, which solves the emission problem but creates new issues with control and reliability. This article discusses new level control technologies that are cost-effective and easy to retrofit, while providing only the required control precision.
