Understanding Valve Actuator Diagnostics

www.cechina.cn2009.11.11阅读 20953

        Constant diagnostic evaluation of electric motor-operated valves (MOVs) has become an important tool for asset management, predictive maintenance programs, troubleshooting, and scheduled periodic maintenance. Predictive functionality allows your maintenance personnel to be proactive in servicing MOVs, while limiting costly failures and unscheduled plant process shutdowns. During scheduled downtime, maintenance personnel are given the information they need to prioritize valve and actuator maintenance to make best use of scarce opportunities.

        Improvements in diagnostics
        Diagnostic testing of electrically actuated valves began nearly 30 years ago to validate the operability of safety-related MOVs in the nuclear power industry. Since this periodic, manually-initiated form of diagnostic testing could identify problems in both the valve and actuator控制工程网版权所有, it became not only a tool to verify MOV operationCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, but also for troubleshooting and preventive maintenance.
        In recent years, innovations within electronic smart actuation devices created a highly sophisticated but labor-intensive troubleshooting effort for plant personnel. To overcome the labor intensity, built-in-self-test (BIST) features, developed in conjunction with customer requirementsCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, have removed the manual initiation and transformed the historical periodic diagnostic testing into a continuous process控制工程网版权所有, performed integrally within the electric actuator控制工程网版权所有, as shown in the diagnostic system dashboard graphic.
        Today, electric valve actuators served by digital communication ne
