Intelligent Control Valves

The comprehensive range of control valves, called iCV (Intelligent Control Valves) by Metso Automation is suited to both general and demanding applications, especially in hydrocarbon processing plants. They help process plants to meet environmental regulations by using control valve constructions that provide performance, reliability and control accuracy. The control valve offering consists of eccentric rotary plug valves, V-port segment valves, Neles RotaryGlobe valves, high-performance eccentric disc valves and top-entry rotary control valves. The rotary control valves help to reduce fugitive emissions by eliminating the gland-packing leakages often associated with rising stem globe valves. Emissions and unwanted leakage, whether of hydrocarbons, water or steam, always constitute a loss of both valuable end product and energy. The non-leakage, live-loaded valve packing prevents the loss of raw material and also effectively eliminates the need for gland-packing maintenance and its associated maintenance costs.
