Fast, accurate valve and actuator selection

NELPROF uses standard ISA sizing equations. In a matter of seconds, it compares different control valve package selections on screen to arrive at the best choice for your application. NELPROF® software facilitates the sizing and selection of the best final control element solution.

Exclusive installed gain comparisons

Sophisticated sizing and selection software reduces variability, increases reliability NELPROF, our proprietary software system, plays a unique role in the ideal industrial gas solution. It is the latest in expert system software, with all the intelligence needed to select the right control valve for your application. NELPROF guides the product sizing and selection process based on a comprehensive database of control valve performance in industrial gas processes.

Accurate sizing and selection with NELPROF gives you a number of significant advantages: • Helps avoid the costly oversizing of valves and undersizing of actuators • Increases productivity and reliability • Controls cavitation, erosion and noise • Causes fewer installation delays • Minimizes troubleshooting after installation • Reduces plant maintenance costs • Reduces environmental risks caused by poor performance • Reduces costly downtime • Maximizes uptime • Reduces total life-cycle product costs

Installed gain comparisons help facilitate precise package selection. With NELPROF your staff can perform these comparisons at the touch of a button.

Control valve simulation

Step response simulation lets you see your final control element selection in operation.

Certified dimensional drawings

A user-friendly version of NELPROF software and a comprehensive self-help training program are available to help your staff increase their understanding of process control and valve performance. After selecting and sizing, you can switch to Rapid-Draw™ and create a certified dimensional drawing in minutes. Contact your local representative for a copy of the software.

Swing adsorption solutions: Tight Shut-off at high cycles Metso valve solutions assure valve reliability over many thousands of cycles in pressure, temperature, and vacuum swing adsorption applications. Our products answer the requirements of the temperature-based method for compression and liquification of air. We also handle the demands of Pressure-Swing Adsorption (PSA) and Vacuum Adsorption (VSA) processes. Swing adsorption systems which may be unmanned, make NELES and JAMESBURY valve integrity and reliability even more critical.

The cryogenic WAFER-SPHERE with JAMESBURY’s patented cryogenic seat design provides for long-reliable service in today’s tough cryogenic industrial gas applications. Extensions and Cold Box Seals are available per engineer’s specifications.

XMBV is a ball valve with a modular construction design. It offers performance and cost-saving advantages in both control and on-off applications.

Segmented control valves offer integrally cast flanges that ensure high integrity at inlet pressures up to 25 bar (362 psi).

4000 Series ball valves provide for a small valve and actuation package with inline service availability.

Membrane process solutions: Meeting application needs with off-the-shelf products Membrane processes require tight seals over the life of the system with the lowest possible downtime. In addition to valve design and manufacture, valve selection and sizing are particularly critical. NELPROF software helps ensure correct valve selection and optimum operation. Depending on the amount of flow, rangeability, and valve size requirement, the valve selected may be a reliable Neles or Jamesbury ball valve, high-performance butterfly valve or a segment control valve.

Answering the challenges of membrane system applications • Tight shut-off over life of system • Actuators on smaller systems • WAFER-SPHERE high performance butterfly valves on larger systems • 4000 Series ball valves with Valv-Powr® actuators for on/off applications • R-Series segmented control valves for control applications • Low-cost, compact, valving for smaller systems
