Overview

Severe Service Valve Applications are few in number but really challenging for plant designers, constructors and end users, requiring special considerations for successful plant commissioning and normal operation, with lower costs of installation and operation. But, what is Severe Service? What are these applications in different plant types?

In this presentation we will go through these definitions, describing the special requirements and the solutions needed to succeed on each of the applications. We will also learn that datasheets and general control valve specifications are not valid for these applications.

This seminar will be focused on the special considerations needed to solve these applications, helping all agents involved to succeed at once.
