The cost of leaking valves is the total recurring and intervention cost created when a valve fails to provide the required isolation. A defensible estimate combines leakage quantity, operating dura... Read More
API 598 vs ISO 5208 is a contractual and technical selection, not a contest to identify a universally stricter valve-testing standard. Use the document and edition invoked by the purchase order, go... Read More
Seat leakage detection in valves is the field process of verifying whether a closed valve still allows process fluid or gas to pass across the seat, then turning that finding into maintenance evidenc... Read More
Passing valve detection is the field process for finding internal leakage through a closed industrial valve. It answers a specific operating question: is media passing across the seat when the valve ... Read More
Die Erkennung undichter Ventile ist der Feldprozess zum Auffinden interner Leckage durch ein geschlossenes Industrieventil. Sie beantwortet eine konkrete betriebliche Frage: Strömt Medium über den Si... Read More
Acceptable valve leakage is the leakage level that a valve may show without failing the applicable acceptance criteria for its type, service, test method and governing standard. In practice, it is ... Read More
Akzeptable Ventilleckage ist der Leckagegrad, den ein Ventil aufweisen darf, ohne die geltenden Annahmekriterien für seinen Typ, seinen Einsatzfall, sein Prüfverfahren und die maßgebliche Norm zu v... Read More
The detection and prevention of potential failures as early as possible is one of the key tasks in condition monitoring. This is also the case for Max, our head of inspection and maintenance at a pl... Read More
Valve leakage: just a nuisance or a serious problem?Industry experience has shown that 5-10% of valves installed in industrial assets are leaking, and 1-2% of valves cause 70% of total damage. Leaki... Read More
Ventilleckage: nur ein Ärgernis oder ein ernstes Problem?Branchenerfahrungen haben gezeigt, dass 5–10 % der in Industrieanlagen installierten Ventile undicht sind und 1–2 % der Ventile 70 % des Gesa... Read More
