Digital Technologies
In the processing industries, operational technology (OT) systems that control and automate physical industrial operations have traditionally been isolated from information technology (IT) systems that manage data and enterprise-level functions. This separation was largely driven by cybersecurity concerns, leading to strict controls on OT networks and limiting their ability to connect with broader IT infrastructure.

Heat Exchange/Management
Valves, Pumps, Turbomachinery and Compressors
Valves are essential components across industries such as oil and gas, power generation, water treatment and chemical processing. They regulate and/or isolate fluid flow, ensuring safe and efficient system operation. To guarantee reliability and performance, valves must conform to rigorous standards developed by organizations like the American Petroleum Institute (API), the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), the Manufacturers Standardization Society (MSS) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
