Optimal compressor performance

Valmet’s automation offering for compressor controls

Industrial compressor automation with Valmet DNA system

Valmet provides advanced automation solutions for compressor systems through the Valmet DNA Automation System. Our comprehensive offering includes powerful compressor control, monitoring, protection, optimization, and reporting applications. Designed for maximum reliability and performance, the system helps plants operate safely, efficiently, and cost-effectively- while minimizing environmental impact.

Integrated machine condition monitoring combined with advanced compressor control and protection features

Optimized, flexible operations enabled by integrated advanced process controls

Powerful, scalable, and adaptable automation system architecture

Comprehensive plant performance analysis with detailed reporting applications

Single solution for all plant equipment and processes

The Valmet DNA User Interface provides centralized operation and monitoring of compressor controllers, including surge detection and protection. The Valmet DNA compressor controller ensures optimal compressor performance by managing the driver and surge protection. Multiple compressor trains can be linked via communication for coordinated load shedding and balancing.

The automation system controls compressor trains and drivers - steam or gas turbines, electric motors, VSD systems, or engines - during both normal and disturbance conditions. The entire plant is managed through Valmet DNA DCS, which handles load control based on operator or process area setpoints. Integration with non-Valmet systems like PLCs, SCADA, or DCS is supported via communication links for seamless data transfer.

Key to economical plant operation

In plants with multiple units or costly rotating equipment, optimizing performance, energy management, and condition monitoring is critical for cost efficiency.

Valmet DNA’s advanced Industrial Internet-based solutions and services further enhance these capabilities.
