Smart monitor
12 Jun 2000
The latest smart valve technology will be the highlight of the Neles Automation exhibit in Hall 9.2 stand L14-L18 (enter 300 on enquiry card). A new testing and monitoring system for emergency valve applications and an internet/intranet system for real time monitoring of control valves will be displayed. The Valvguard fulfils SIL 3 safety requirements and allows users to continuously monitor valve condition and testing. Fieldbrowser monitors each field instrument connected to it via a Hart multiplexer network. The Fieldbrowser identifies most valve problems long before they can disrupt the process. In the event of a failure, a warning is immediately sent to a web page, email or mobile phone.
