Notice on using Non -Vilter Oils

Oil and its additives are crucial in system performance. Vilter Manufacturing will NOT APPROVE non-Vilter oils for use with Vilter compressors. Due to the innumerable choices available it is not possible for us to test all oils offered in the market place, and their effects on our equipment.

We realize that customers may choose lubricants other than Vilter branded oil. This is certainly within the customers’ right as owners of the equipment. When this choice is made, however, Vilter is unable to accept responsibility for any detrimental affects those lubricants may have on the equipment or system performance and durability.

Should a lubrication related system issue occur with the use of non-Vilter oils, Vilter may deny warranty upon evaluation of the issue. This includes any parts’ failure caused by inadequate lubrication.

Certainly, there are many good lubricants in the market place. The choice of a lubricant for a particular ap- plication involves consideration of many aspects of the lubricant and how it and its additive package will react in the various parts of the entire system. It is a complex choice that depends on a combination of field experience, lab and field-testing, and knowledge of lubricant chosen. Vilter will not accept those risks other than for our own lubricants.

Emerson VSM, VSR, VSS service manual Operation Section

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.
