Engineering, Palakkad.
Purpose
To establish a uniform mean of
designating instruments and
instrumentation systems used for
measurement and control.
Scope
1) General
The procedural needs of various users are
different. The standard recognizes these
needs, when they are consistent with the
objectives of the standardly by providing
alternative symbolism methods.
A number of examples are provided for
adding information or simplifying the
symbolism as desired.
Scope
2) Application to Industries
Chemical.
Petroleum.
Power generation.
Air conditioning.
Metal refining.
Scope
3) Application to Work Activities
Design sketches.
Teaching examples.
Technical papers, literatures, and discussions.
Instrumentation system diagrams, loop diagrams, logic
diagrams.
Functional descriptions.
Flow diagrams:
Process.
Mechanical.
Engineering.
Systems piping (process) and instrumentation.
Construction drawings.
Specifications, purchase orders, manifests, and other lists.
Identification of the
System
Each instrument may be
represented on diagrams
by symbols.

1 Instrument or function to
be identified is
designated by an
alphanumeric code or
tag number.
The symbols may be
accompanied by a tag
number.
