MARSHALLTOWN,
IOWA (May 19, 2003)-- Emerson Process Management introduces the Fisher®
Design TBX valve to handle the most severe steam conditioning applications
found in today’s cycling power plants, as well as to provide precise
combined pressure-temperature control within process applications.
The
Fisher TBX valve features a flow up configuration to provide increased
operating stability and ease of maintenance. It incorporates Fisher’s
low noise Whisper Trim® technology within a simplified trim configuration
that accommodates rapid changes in temperature (e.g., as experienced
during a turbine trip.)
Grounded
in more than 20 years of steam conditioning experience, and using the
latest finite element analysis (FEA) design tools, Emerson engineers
developed the TBX valve design to give optimized performance and assure
reliability for demanding steam applications.
Atomization
and vaporization are key elements in any steam conditioning application.
The TBX incorporates a manifold of variable geometry Type AF nozzles that
produce a fine spray mist over a wide operating range. These nozzles are
placed strategically based upon extensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
analyses, and their efficiency has been validated by field performance
feedback.
As
a core component of the PlantWeb digital plant architecture, Fisher Design
TBX steam conditioning valves work with FIELDVUE® controllers to deliver
better process control and predictive diagnostics information that enables
improved reliability and maintenance efficiency. Further cost savings,
increased plant availability, and enhanced safety and environmental
compliance are achieved when the Fisher digital valves are integrated into
the PlantWeb architecture.
