ICM/ICAD Motorized Valve

Installation, Programming, and Troubleshooting

 

 

Care should be taken to protect the ICM function module while it is removed from the valve body.

3.Weld the valve body in line making sure the arrow on the valve body is pointing in the direction of !ow.

4.Remove all debris from the valve body before re-installing the bonnet.

5.Install the bonnet/function module into the valve body.

a.For ICM 20, make sure that the removable ori"ce seat is installed in the valve body with the small O-ring between the ori"ce seat and body. Make sure the bonnet gasket is installed and in good condition.

b.For ICM 25 through ICM 65, check that the two O-rings on the bonnet and gasket located between the bonnet and valve body are installed and in good condition. A light coating of refrigerant oil on the bonnet O-rings will facilitate installation of the bonnet.

6.Install the four bolts and torque to the following speci"cations:

7.Install the ICAD motor actuator on the ICM valve:

a.The ICM valve must not be in its fully opened position while the ICAD motor is calibrated with the valve at a later step. Therefore, if the opening degree of the ICM valve was changed from the factory setting, it should be set to an opening degree between 0% and 75% using the manual magnet tool. To easily ensure correct positioning, turn the manual tool counter-clockwise until it is clear that it cannot be turned further.

b.Make sure that the ICM adapter/valve stem and inner ICAD motor magnets are completely dry and free from any debris.

c.For applications below freezing, the ICM adapter O-ring (position 2c in the diagram on page 3) must be removed, and Molycote G 4500 grease (supplied with ICAD motor) needs to be applied in the O-ring groove on the adapter and on the O-ring before it is re-installed on the ICM adapter. The Molycote grease ensures a good seal between the ICAD motor and the ICM adapter to prevent moisture from entering the ICAD magnets.

d.Place the ICAD motor on the valve stem.

e.Push the ICAD motor completely down to the identi"cation ring on the valve stem and use a 2.5 mm hex key to tighten the set screws evenly so the ICAD motor is centered on the ICM adapter (torque: 3 Nm/ 2.5 lb-ft).

VSS, VSM, VSR specifications

Emerson VSM, VSR, and VSS are advanced technologies designed for process automation and control, often utilized in industrial applications. These systems are part of Emerson's broader portfolio of solutions aimed at enhancing operational efficiency, safety, and reliability.

The Emerson VSM, or Valve Signature Management, focuses on the digital management of valves within a system. One of its main features includes advanced diagnostics that monitor the health and performance of control valves. This technology allows for predictive maintenance, ensuring that valves operate at peak efficiency and reducing the risk of unexpected failures. The VSM utilizes a combination of smart sensors and actuators to gather data, enabling real-time analytics that can enhance decision-making and operational strategies.

On the other hand, VSR, or Valve Status Reporting, enhances visibility into the operational state of valves in real time. This system provides operators with critical updates and alerts related to valve conditions, significantly reducing response times to potential issues. The VSR technology integrates seamlessly with existing control systems, allowing for easier implementation and minimal disruption to ongoing operations. The reporting capabilities feature user-friendly dashboards that present complex data in a straightforward manner, empowering operators to make informed decisions quickly.

The Emerson VSS, or Valve Service Solutions, complements the VSM and VSR by focusing on the maintenance and support of valve systems. This offering includes comprehensive service packages that range from routine maintenance to advanced troubleshooting and repair. The VSS is designed to improve the lifespan of valves through proactive service, ensuring reliability and minimal downtime. Emerson’s trained technicians leverage predictive analytics derived from VSM and VSR data, allowing for timely intervention before issues escalate.

In summary, Emerson’s VSM, VSR, and VSS technologies work together to create a robust ecosystem for valve management in industrial settings. The combination of advanced diagnostics, real-time reporting, and comprehensive service solutions provides operators with a powerful toolkit aimed at optimizing performance and ensuring operational reliability. With these technologies, companies can embrace digital transformation, reduce operational risks, and improve overall process efficiency, leading to a safer and more productive environment. Each component plays a crucial role in empowering industries to meet the challenges of modern automation and maintain competitive advantages in their respective markets.
