Emergency Shut Down Valve:

The construction and accessories of Shutdown Valve (SDV) and Emergency Shutdown Valve (ESDV) are similar. Their name is
distinguished only from their services. Shutdown Valve referred to actuated valve which is closed during partial or total
process shutdown of system to which the valve protects. Emergency Shutdown Valve is actuated valve which is closed when
triggered by signal from ESD level signal during emergency condition occurs. Emergency Shutdown Valves are commonly
located in incoming line and outgoing line of the plant or platform.
Actuated valve mainly consists of:

Main Body Valve


Actuator
Limit Switches
Solenoid Valve or other pilot valve
Air Filter Regulator

Ultrasonic Flow meter :


An ultrasonic flow meter is a type of flow meter that measures the velocity of a liquid or gas (fluid) by using the principle
of ultrasound. Using ultrasonic transducers, the flow meter can measure the average velocity along the path of an emitted beam of
ultrasound, by averaging the difference in measured transit time between the pulses of ultrasound propagating into and against the
direction of the flow. Ultrasonic flow meters are affected by the temperature, density and viscosity of the flowing medium. They
are inexpensive to use and maintain because they do not use moving parts, unlike mechanical flow meters.

Schematic views of a transit-time ultrasound perivascular ultrasonic volume flowsensor. Using wide beam illumination,
two transducers pass ultrasonic signals back and forth, alternately intersecting the flowing liquid in upstream and
downstream directions. The flowmeter derives an accurate measure of the "transit time" it takes for the wave of
ultrasound to travel from one transducer to the other The difference between the upstream and downstream
integrated transit times is a measure of volume flow rather than velocity.
