Effect of Control Valve Sizing and Flow

Characteristic on Controllability
This one hour webinar discusses the difference between a control valves inherent and
installed flow characteristic, and defines the two most commonly found inherent flow
characteristics. Rules of thumb are presented for selecting the correct inherent flow
characteristic for a particular application and selecting the correct size control valve, along with
technical justification for these rules of thumb. Each participant will receive a certificate of
completion in the mail.

Who should attend?

Technicians and engineers who want to gain insight into selecting
control valves that will do the best possible job of controlling a
process, or who want to be able to recognize when poor control is
being caused by an improperly selected control valve.
