Title: Gas Turbine Opportunities for Valve Companies Shaped by IIoT

There are many new gas turbine combined cycle power plants (GTCC) under construction and in operation. This represents a market potential of $3.5 billion/yr. for valve suppliers.  However, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is creating a metamorphosis in the route to market and profitability.  This market is being continually assessed in N028 Industrial Valves: World Market.  Each gas turbine project is tracked in59EI Gas Turbine and Reciprocating Engine Supplier Program. Smart valves provide a route to increase revenue and profitability.  Both on/off and control valves have “smart” capabilities. An on/off valve can be supplied with a controller which is intelligent, having digital communication and a microprocessor capable of on-board diagnostics. The controller can detect deteriorating valve performance. Diagnostics also include high and low temperature monitoring. The on/off valve diagnostics make it possible to more accurately predict the need for maintenance based on how hard the valve is working and how it is performing.
