Parts for valves
Neles™ spare parts meet the original material and specification requirements of the valve assembly initially purchased. The use of genuine parts ensures that they are specifically suited for your industrial process, and their certificates remain legitimate. Your valves perform as intended, reaching their maximum lifetime.
Valve maintenance and repairs
All valves must be repaired at some point. Incorrect repairs or the use of inferior parts create safety risks. That’s why being your reliability partner means we carefully plan maintenance and only use original spare parts to reduce the number of unexpected production breaks and failures. Quality repairs using original spare parts ensure that your valves meet their original specifications after maintenance and will reach their maximum lifetime.
Plant maintenance and lifecycle services
A single equipment failure can cost thousands in lost production. We at Neles™ can help you to prevent these failures and keep your plant running at its full capacity. Well-designed maintenance planning and effective service execution ensure the safety and availability of your field devices and reduce downtime.
PID tuning and process control services
In a typical plant, many controls and processes are not operating optimally, which can result in less stable production, higher raw material usage, increased energy consumption and lower yield. Neles™ PID tuning and process control services are designed to identify controls impacting performance and help you return to optimal production.
