When turbine trips happen, the pressure to act fast can lead to costly misdiagnoses. One Midwest power plant was facing repeated trip events blamed on its steam-injection valves. The OEM recommended immediate valve replacements — a decision that could have cost the plant over $1 million.
In this case study, discover how Emerson’s on-site diagnostic services helped the plant:
- Identify the real cause of 10 turbine trips.
- Avoid unnecessary valve replacements.
- Save $140,000 per trip.
- Improve steam-injection valve reliability.
- Reduce downtime, emissions, and warranty back charges.
If your plant is reacting to symptoms instead of solving root causes, you could be spending more than you need to spend.
