Benefits of Metal Seals in Quarter Turn Valves May 12, 2026 | Valves, Actuators & Regulators - In terms of control performance, sealing life, and cost, quarter turn valves incorporating soft, non-metallic components have been the gold standard for decades. Unfortunately, these soft seals have a somewhat limited ceiling for temperature and are easily damaged when used in applications where the process fluid contains abrasive materials. Metal seals address these deficiencies, but… Read MoreLatest Posts
Scaling Ovation for Data-Heavy Power and Renewable Projects
Solar sites are growing to 5 gigawatts, battery projects at 30 gigawatt-hours, and behind-the-meter data center projects reaching 10 gigawatts, with fleets of hundreds of sites and tens of millions of points. The Ovation Platform scales to address these challenges.
Driving Sustainable Life Sciences Operations with Automation
TL;DR Sustainability initiatives require efficient use of limited resources. Automation enables measurable improvements in energy use and emissions. Monitoring WAGES systems is key to identifying waste. Modern control and reliability tools reduce inefficiencies and...
Advanced Battery Testing: Identifying Defects in Cells and Modules with AI and Machine Learning
Battery manufacturing operates at scale, where even rare defects can have an outsized impact. A single faulty cell can compromise an entire pack, leading to safety risks, recalls, and warranty costs. Traditional end-of-line testing methods often lack the resolution needed to detect these anomalies in high-volume production
Industrial AI Requires Deterministic Performance at the Edge
TL;DR Industrial AI requires compute closer to the process. Commercial servers are not designed for real-time OT needs. Deterministic performance is critical for control systems. Thermal constraints can impact edge performance. Modern edge controllers combine control...
Gas Analyzers for CEMS: Bringing Simplicity to a Complex Situation
There was a time when an engineer tasked with assembling a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) for a combustion-based power plant or in-house generating unit would be stuck selecting a specialized analyzer technology to match every pollutant subject to...
Improving Solids Level Measurement Reliability with Non-Contacting Radar
Automation has brought significant improvements in safety, efficiency and productivity across process industries. However, unplanned downtime continues to impact overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), with lost production and maintenance costs directly affecting...
