  • Identifying when partial stroke testing may be useful
  • Various criteria to consider when selecting the partial stroke method, e.g., automated versus manual test execution, spurious trip potential, and on-line maintainability
  • The advantages and disadvantages of three basic types of partial stroke test methods: mechanical limiting, positioners, and solenoid operated valves
  • The use of diagnostic coverage factors in the performance calculations for an automated block valve being partial stroke tested periodically
