The iVapps Cartridge system is a ground-breaking product that replaces outdated pipeline valve technology with interchangeable VALVE and telemetry (SMART) cartridges that enables the digitisation of pipeline networks and connection to the Industrial Internet of Things to facilitate real-time monitoring and control of process flows.

We have produced a first ever globally unique and IP protected platform for any flow system to accommodate live INFLOW telemetry that can be interchanged without shutting down the flow. To minimise the cost of installation to the customer the platform uses the currently established valve positions to hold a new PORTAL which houses iVapps range of cartridges.
To enable this iVapps developed the VALVE cartridge which is the first major innovation in the industrial valves market for well over 100 years.
