Since there’s so much riding on the health of your water system, you might be surprised (or maybe not) by how many water utilities risk relying on handwritten logs, lonely spreadsheets, or the memory of a senior team member to keep track of their valves. Cla-Val’s Link2Valves software replaces traditional record-keeping methods with a real-time, secure data management platform that simplifies valve maintenance and management across your water system.
Here’s why operators are switching to Link2Valves:
1. Never “Lose” a Valve
Believe it or not, we’ve had customers “lose” some of their valves. No one knew they were buried along a pipeline until one failed and caused damage. With Link2Valves you have the exact GPS coordinates for every logged valve, and you’ll always be able to locate it for checks and maintenance.
2. Streamlined Maintenance Scheduling
Control Valves are one of the most maintenance-critical assets in your system. With Link2Valves, setting, tracking and managing valve service schedules is easy, whether you’re on-site or checking in remotely. Visualizing and prioritizing maintenance needs is especially helpful for larger water systems with many valves spread across a large area. Even if your city already has an asset management system, Link2Valves serves as a dedicated, streamlined control valve maintenance log, helping you keep critical maintenance schedules from getting lost in the noise of broader asset tracking.
3. Access from Anywhere
Link2Valves works seamlessly on both desktop and mobile devices, meaning your entire team can access essential valve data wherever they are. This is particularly useful for field operators who need information on the go. The mobile app makes it easy to log valve data and upload photos of your valves on-site. Plus, it’s a secure platform, so your data is always protected.
Easy access to valve data anywhere.
Easily access valve data from the office or in the field using the desktop and mobile platforms.
4. Secure Data
Link2Valves is hosted on Cla-Val owned servers. Each year, Link2Valves undergoes rigorous “penetration testing” to identify and address potential vulnerabilities, ensuring the platform remains secure and reliable for future updates. Your information is safe with Cla-Val and they don’t share your information with third parties, advertisers, or anyone else..
5. Actionable System Insights
When integrated with Cla-Val’s XP2F-D35, Link2Valves becomes the hub for information about your system. Even if you already have an asset management system, Link2Valves enables you to track pressures, valve positions, and flows to make the observations and decisions that keep your system operating optimally. Link2Valves can share that information through API protocols so you can centralize all your information, and you can even set up alarms to send you a notification when something happens in your system.
6. No Cost
Cla-Val knows that your control valves are a substantial investment. That’s why they developed Link2Valves as a free tool to help ensure your valves last as long as they were designed to, and to empower you to keep your valves operating smoothly - without extra fees and subscriptions.
