I. Prologue Output signal Valve Position Hey, Mr. Ching, something wrong with CV Tag # LIC013. Maintenance is required immediately! 3
I. Prologue Mr.Ching - An experienced maintenance engineer Our system operator tells me something wrong with this control valve but it is not so easy to find what is the nature of problem. If it is clear from the beginning, my work can be much faster and easier Is it just a dream? 4
I. Prologue No, it is not a dream! We can help you using Fieldbus technology. OK, Mr. Ching, we are pleased to explain how to do it but before let s think together why control valve is so important? Because control valve may give:- - severe damages onto process. - bad influences on production and safety of entire plant Control Valves are the HEART of the plant 5

III. CV diagnostics Phase-1: Real time diagnoses Summary System operators can realize some abnormal signals on control valves immediately using Foundation Fieldbus and CV s diagnostics. And, the signals not only notices but also it is understood what it is. Serious issues should be solved immediately Minor issues can be recorded to do overhauling during the next shutdown maintenance 10
III. CV diagnostics Phase-2: Shutdown Maintenance To check:- 1. Tightness of grand packing 2. Position according to air supply Stroke between 10% and 90% to record relation between position and air supply as historical data Automatically calculates spring range and friction Position (%) System Vender: Yokogawa Electric Supply (kpa) 18 11

III. CV Diagnostics Phase-2: Shutdown Maintenance Summary Compare data (valve signature, step response and etc.) with those previously collected. Contents of maintenance work can be decided efficiently. 13
III. CV Diagnostics Phase-3: Maintenance plan based on historical data A possible damage of bellows seal would be detected by Total_Stroke parameter. (TRAVEL_ACCUM) This TOTAL_STROKE is as same as 40,000 times full open and full close. 40,000times 35,000times Actual bellows seal after used Replacement period System Vender: Azbil (Yamatake) 14
III. CV Diagnostics Phase-3: Maintenance plan based on historical data Example (Chemical Plant-1) Operation failure was found in stick-slip diagnostic function of control valve:- According to index of gland packing deterioration:- 1. Detect abnormal sliding motion of plug guide 2. Detect plug bend, scratch & other mechanical damages Image Detect Stick Slip 15 System Vender: Azbil (Yamatake)
III. CV Diagnostics (Three phases) Summary Visualize various conditions of control valve through these analyses and historical data Plan CV maintenance efficiently according to present conditions of control valve. 16
IV. Conclusions Control valve diagnoses through Fieldbus are valuable. Fieldbus suits for real time notice since the data transmitting speed is much faster. Offline maintenance with various simulations is useful on data comparison with those collected in the past. Condition based maintenance, it is important to analyze historical data collected through valve positioner. Fieldbus is highly recommended collecting various data on control valve. 17

VI. Progress beyond conclusions c.) NAMUR Recommendation NE107 NE107: Self-Monitoring and Diagnosis of Field Devices Diagnosis results must be reliable The diagnosis results must always be viewed in the context of the application. Internal diagnosis categorized into 4 standard status signals Configuration should be free, as reactions to a fault in the device may be very different depending on the user's requirements The plant operator to see only these status signals Detailed information can be read out by the device specialist 26
