All industrial, manufacturing and utility provision sites have large numbers of essential, complex and specialist equipment. These assets require dedicated maintenance and service plans to make sure they continue working as they are supposed to, at all times. This is the case irrespective of industry; oil and gas sites, wastewater plants, chemical production sites and power stations (to name a few) all operate host specialist equipment that needs dedicated care and servicing to keep running at an optimal level. This white paper will investigate the importance of a holistic service and maintenance programme that focuses on analysis of data supplied from intelligent electric flow control assets (such as actuators).
