Valve configuration and valve sizing of process valves

With our process valve selection and sizing tool seat valves and diaphragm valves with pneumatic and electromotive actuators can be sized easily and accurately.

Your benefits

In General

Easy access - no installation or registration necessary
Calculation of flow coefficient Kv or Cv, flow or pressure drop for media from a large media database
Easy sizing for steam with stored steam tables
Transparency also for different measurement units through integrated conversion
Fast and direct request for quotations

For control valves

Calculation of the characteristic curves with up to 3 operating points
Reliability assessment of valves for operating conditions
Warning for criticall operating conditions such as cavitation, choking and flashing
Includes noise prediction

Based on the flow coefficient Kv/Cv a suitable valve can be selected easily for the operation conditions of your application. For control valves it is additionally possible to evaluate whether critical conditions restrict the reliability of valves.

Within the process valve selection and sizing tool you can find an info tour with help texts guiding you through the procedure. Of course, we are also glad to give you personal advice - please use our contact form or give us a call. The contact details can be found at the bottom of the page.
