Reducing the risk of welding-heat damage to valves during installation
To reduce the risk of damage being caused to valves during the installation process, ESI can now supply Habonim 3-piece ball valves which are fitted with “extended ends”
Eliminate pump failures when pumping Mash in distilleries and breweries
A major problem in distilleries and breweries is pump failures caused by MASH. The mash is abrasive and conventional pumps are not capable of pumping it without high maintenance costs
Monitoring the position of manual lever-operated valves
Feedback sensors are essential for ensuring critical valves are appropriately positioned when in service.
Process Cartridge Filter – Risk Assessment for Change Control
Why do users undertake Rick Assessment? Whether it is delivery issues, pricing or a process change, users are often faced with a situation were they may require to change filter type or vendor. This will entail Risk Assessment for change control
Reduce instrument calibration intervals – intercept problems before they cause major plant issues
Many plants have strict calibration practices in place to ensure instrumentation is within specification. This incurs considerable cost and to-date was considered best practice. With Emerson Asset Management Suite AMS, many benefits can be realised
Actuators to meet clean-room specification
For sanitary applications or when it is necessary to install actuators in a clean room, the standard industrial actuator may present a problem as the specification usually calls for “crevice free” equipment.
Pharmaceutical LPHW-generation skid system
A skid system built for a pharmaceutical client that required a custom-built Low Pressure Hot Water generation skid with on-board condensate recovery:
Dry-Running Vacuum Pumps to handle liquid and solids carry over
SIHI dry meets the need for a simple, robust and reliable vacuum pump that can handle liquid and solids carry-over as well as rapidly changing operating conditions
Temperature Control Modules for Pharmaceutical Vessel Jackets
Special design of a temperature control module skid for a pharmaceutical vessel jacket application.
Diagnosing Critical Control Valves In Service – Performance Diagnostics (PD)
Diagnose your Control Valves in Service without being a valve expert
Pharmaceutical Utility Skid Package – Case Study
A pharmaceutical client required skid-mounted equipment versus an on-site build to solve the following:
HPX Tantalum rupture disc for use in highly corrosive media
Tantalum rupture discs for applications where highly corrosive media is present
Reducing the Risk of Premature Failure of Bursting Discs on Vessels & Autoclaves
Prevent premature rupture disc failure on reactor vessels / autoclaves under high pressure & vacuum cycles and the potential loss of very expensive product
Critical control valves: 4 steps to reduce down time; improve plant performance
The following 4 steps can reduce the likelihood of an unscheduled shut down or worst-case should ensure that systems are in place to return the plant to normal operation, as quickly as possible:
PTFE Lined Butterfly Valves – Critical Applications Require Quality Design Features
PTFE Butterfly Valves have historically received bad press due to the perception that they leak. However with advances in technology and design, manufacturers are now supplying high quality valves that are bubble tight.
