Process Live Service: Uptime Assurance for valves
Eliminate costly downtime with real-time insights about valve health to help prevent process disruptions.

Reduce unplanned downtime with real-time insights about process valves

Process Live Uptime Assurance for valves is an end-to-end service experience that maximizes process valve performance and reliability.

Valve uptime assurance eliminates costly process downtime by delivering real-time insights about valve health to help prevent disruptions before they occur. Valve health insights indicate when a valve component shows signs of excessive wear or damage, triggering inspection, facilitating procurement of spare parts, and enabling efficient service planning. The service also can monitor for leaks to enable rapid remediation and avoid product loss and release of gas to the atmosphere.

The service also includes recommendations for condition-based maintenance (CBM), which can reduce opex by extending service intervals as compared with timed service intervals that do not reflect actual valve operations.

Monitor and manage your digitally enabled valves

Process Live data-enriched performance service is a multifaceted offering for uptime assurance, process optimization, and greenhouse gas (GHG) control. It integrates digitally enabled equipment, collaboration with OEM experts, and maintenance to provide an enhanced service experience for asset life cycle management.

Process Live Uptime Assurance for valves is initially available only for digitally enabled versions of the ORBIT rising stem ball valve. The necessary technology can be retrofitted to existing actuated valves in the field or installed on new actuated valves. Ideal for applications that require zero leakage and frequent operation, ORBIT valves are used globally in gas processing plants using molecular sieve systems in switching service.
