On Wednesday, July 29th, 2015 from 2:00pm to 3:00pm EST, Siemens will be hosting an webinar. This past April, Siemens has enhanced the SIPART PS2 valve performance diagnostics by incorporating four offline valve performance tests and this is what the course will focus on. The valve performance tests that will be covered involve: The Full Stroke Test (FST), the Step Response Test (SRT), the Multi Step Response Test (MSRT) and the Valve Performance Test (VPT).
The webinar will delve into the International Standards IEC 61514-2 & IEC 61298-2, which are designed to provide performance data on the entire valve assembly and why these benefits provide proof of valve performance for you and your customer during the initial stage of the valve as well as a baseline comparison for future performance testing. Additionally, valve performance can be monitored with the standard SIPART PS2 online advanced diagnostics features, which can alert customers to valve issues before it affects their process.
In addition to reviewing the components necessary to perform these tests, this webinar will demonstrate each valve performance test while simulating typical valve assembly symptoms for data comparison purposes.
