Valve Performance Assessment
Experiencing cavitation, excessive noise or vibration? We evaluate your valve, operating conditions and process data to identify the root cause and recommend the most appropriate solution—whether that's a trim upgrade, retrofit, replacement, or another corrective action.
How an assessment works
01 — Define the scope
Define what needs to be investigated, the operating conditions involved and the information required for the assessment.
02 — Engineer & validate
We evaluate your application using engineering calculations, applicable standards to identify the cause of cavitation, noise, vibration or other performance issues.
03 — Report & recommend
You receive a written report with findings and a clear recommendation—whether that's a trim upgrade, retrofit, replacement, process changes or no action required. Our recommendation is independent of whether you purchase hardware from us.
- Assessment of cavitation, noise and vibration in existing or proposed control valves
- Root-cause analysis of trim or valve performance issues
- Second-opinion review of a trim design proposed by another vendor
- Trim sizing and selection for new or modified process applications
- A written report independent of any hardware sale
Good fit when…
- You need an independent engineering assessment before committing to hardware changes
- A valve is failing—or underperforming—and you need to understand why before deciding what to do next
- You want a second opinion on someone else's proposed trim design
Is the assessment independent, or does it push toward buying trim from you?
The report reflects the engineering findings — sometimes that means a retrofit isn't the right answer, and we'll say so.
Can this feed into a retrofit or OEM project later?
Yes. The assessment often becomes the starting point for a trim upgrade, retrofit, reverse-engineering or OEM development project, but it's equally valuable as a standalone engineering deliverable.
