Retrofit3D™ valve upgrade

Enhance your valve performance with Retrofit3D™

Retrofit3D-banner-image

# Demands today require control valves with enhanced reliability, performance, and easy maintenance. ### Traditional like-for-like valve replacements can be costly and complex, especially for welded inline valves, due to additional engineering, scheduling, cutting, re-welding, and post-weld inspection costs. Retrofit3D™ has been developed to eliminate problems in control valves without the need to replace the entire valve.

Retrofit3D™ solution

Revolutionising valve performance

Retrofit3D™ is a customised trim solution that fits into existing valve bodies without changing the body or top works. Using DRAG® technology, it addresses root causes of valve issues by directing fluid through a multi-stage, multi-path trim to reduce differential pressure. This design eliminates erosion, vibration, and noise, ensuring enhanced valve performance.

Proven retrofit solutions

Boosting valve efficiency with Retrofit3D™

Hundreds of control valves have been successfully retrofitted to solve operational and maintenance issues. Our Retrofit3D™ solution, using DRAG® technology, allows us to replace just the cage or the complete trim set. This approach addresses valve problems in various flow conditions, providing measurable returns on investment.

Benefits of Retrofit3D™

An effective solution for improving control valve performance and reliability across industries.


.
Lower upgrade costs

Many of the components in the cost of installation, such as engineering, cutting pipes, welding, pressure testing, and QA are eliminated.

Reduced risk

Since pressure boundary conditions or actuation is not changed, the risk to the end user is also lower. It’s a replacement of only the internal trim components.

Shorter downtime

As the installation does not require cutting of the pipe or rewelding, the turnaround time for installation is within hours.

Versatility

Suitable for a wide range of applications and industries, providing tailored solutions to specific valve problems.

Lower total cost of ownership

Lower maintenance and improved efficiency due to better trim performance.

Measurable ROI

Provides a measurable return on investment by improving valve performance and reducing maintenance costs.
