Emerson's Fisher easy-e control valve is found in every industry where fluid flow must be controlled, providing users with improved process performance and reliability. Whether the application involves refining, oil and gas production, power generation, paper manufacturing or chemical processing, the easy-e is at work. The reasons why include:
* Easy choice - the valve design platform allows easy configuration for specific requirements.
* Easy installation - a choice of body sizes, styles and end connections caters for most piping requirements.
* Easy maintenance - the quick-change cage-style trim, reduces maintenance effort and maximises uptime.
* Easy ownership - long operating life and enhanced control features provide good return on investment.
* Easy operation - the range extends from a FIELDVUE digital valve controller coupled with a spring-and-diaphragm actuator to simple hand wheel operated devices. Designed for PlantWeb digital plant architecture, FIELDVUE instruments and AMS ValveLi software enable safe operation by delivering new insights on valve health. The spring-and-diaphragm actuator is commonly specified for general purpose applications, piston actuators are available for high thrust and long travel requirements.
According to Emerson incorporating the valve has significant cost and time saving benefits, including:
* Reduced downtime - the design has been subjected to extensive flow testing and evaluation, yielding a robust control valve with high reliability.
* Reduced maintenance costs - the valves have been designed for inline inspection and repair enabling easy servicing.
* Application versatility - interchangeable parts across the range maximises control options and minimises inventory investment.
* Reduced training requirements - the broad range of applicability means that maintenance personnel are not required to be expert on a variety of products.
* Worldwide support - the uniform design ensures easy availability of spares.
* Total cost of ownership - the quality construction provides long life with minimum service requirements. The standard flow cage, valve plug and seat ring are constructed of hardened stainless steel, precision machined for smooth operation.
The valves are pressure rated to DIN PN160 and temperatures up to 530°C can be accommodated.
