A single power plant uses hundreds of valves to control almost every aspect of its operation. Valves, in conjunction with a controlling actuator, are used for pollution control, feed water, cooling ...
An H-bridge servo drive module for National Instruments' CompactRIO embedded control and acquisition system offers direct connectivity to actuators, such as fractional-horsepower brushed DC servo ...
The cascading bypass system is perhaps the most common design for managing high-pressure steam in a combined-cycle plant. It is the hot reheat (HRH) bypass valve actuator that defines the valve’s ...
A predictive approach to finding potential issues with steam or gas turbine valve actuators can help power plant operators realize cost savings and avoid unit downtime. Having a way to analyze ...
If you are interested in participating on ISA96, please contact ISA standards staff at +1 919-549-8411 or ISA Standards. The committee will develop standards and technical reports related to valve ...
MONTVILLE, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Marotta Controls announces today that it has been awarded a contract from Airbus Defence and Space to provide high pressure Miniature Solenoid Valves for the ...
Stepping Piezoelectric Actuators (SPA’s) – based on the Piezoelectric Friction-Inertial Actuation (PFIA) principle – are made from Cedrat Technologies Amplified Piezoelectric Actuators (APA). They use ...
They work in harsh environments, and they get little or no recognition. But their impact on power plant efficiency can be significant. Valves and actuators are critical in almost every aspect of power ...
