What information is included in a control valve specification datasheet?
Answer
Control valve datasheet includes: process data (fluid, flow rates, pressures, temperatures, SG/MW, viscosity), sizing results (calculated Cv, selected valve Cv, noise prediction), valve selection (type, size, rating, material, trim, characteristic, leakage class), actuator (type, size, fail action, air supply), positioner (type, input signal, communication), accessories (limit switches, solenoids, handwheel), and special requirements (SIL rating, fugitive emissions, special testing). Include tag number, P&ID reference, and design codes (ASME, API). Datasheet is basis for vendor quotation and verification during FAT.
