Overview

In June 2019, the recommended practice S2812-X-19 was published by WIB at Valve World Americas Conference. The RP (Recommended Practice) is called "Actuated Valve Assembly - A Recommended Practice for Part Turn Automated On-off Valves“ and addresses the issue of the framework, including definitions, of the sizing and selection and mechanical integrity of the industry’s most common automated valve assemblies.

Since FIRST extensively supported the development of the RP both procedurally and with demonstrable prototypes, it is naturally obvious that a module in CONVAL® will soon be available that comprehensively maps the RP. This is procedurally further supported by the International Standards Organization (ISO) to accept the proposal and publish an ISO standard based on the RP.
