n the day-to-day operation of your plant you have a long list of concerns, like

meeting production schedules, maintaining product quality, and improving the

I

efficiency of plant utilities, to name just a few. The last thing you should have to worry

about is the performance of your plant’s control valves. The answer to that concern is

Emerson.

Emerson wants to be your partner.

With Emerson, you’ll have the support of a global company with extensive international
engineering, research, sales, marketing, manufacturing, and service operations. Which
means you’ll have access to leading control valve and instrument technologies that
offer new levels of performance and reliability. Regardless of your industry. Regardless
of your location.

If you can’t count on your control valves, you can’t count on your process! That’s why
operations like yours have chosen Fisher

The Fisher digital valve provides you with real-time predictive intelligence,
not just numbers and graphs. So you will know there’s a problem and can
take action before your process is impacted! The Fisher digital valve is a
core component of Emerson’s PlantWeb

PlantWeb digital plant architecture uses open communication standards to link
intelligent field devices (like the Fisher digital valve), automation systems, and
applications in a plantwide network. Operations can run production with greater
confidence in automation as they tune the process for optimal throughput, quality,
and availability while reducing the overall cost of operations.
