Introducing a smarter way to monitor PTD seal wear!
We're excited to introduce the new Automatic Wear Detection System (AWDS), the latest option for our PTD Plug Diverter Valve.
Until now, checking the condition of PTD seals often meant opening the valve or waiting for signs of wear to become visible. With AWDS, maintenance teams gain valuable insight into seal condition without having to disassemble the valve.
Available in two versions, Active and Passive AWDS, the system helps operators identify seal wear or leakage, make more informed maintenance decisions, and reduce unnecessary interruptions to production.
And the best part? Both options are available for new PTDs and as retrofit solutions for existing installations.
Want to know how it works? Swipe through our carousel to explore the differences between Active and Passive AWDS and see how this new option supports smarter PTD maintenance. 👉
