    Instrumentation is the measurement and control of process variables like temperature, pressure, level, and flow within a manufacturing or production area. Instruments measure physical quantities and convert them into understandable variables to control changes and obtain desirable results. Some common measurements include temperature, pressure, level, flow, weight, time, distance, and chemical properties. Instruments convert non-visible changes into electrical signals like voltage or current using devices like load cells, pressure transmitters, and thermocouples. Control systems also include sensors to measure variables, indicating controllers, and final control elements to correct any deviations.

    What is Instrumentation?
    • Instrumentation is defined as the art and science
    of measurement and control of process variables
    within a production or manufacturing area
    • An instrument is a device that measures a
    physical quantity such as flow, temperature, level,
    distance, angle, or pressure. Instruments may be
    as simple as direct reading thermometers or may
    be complex multi-variable process analyzers
    Why Instrumentation

    • To know quantity of Physical, Chemical changes.


    • To convert these changes to understandable variable.
    • To control these changes to obtain desirable results.
    What You Can measure

    • Branch of which measures quantity of physical or chemical change like


    • Temperature
    • Pressure
    • Level
    • Flow
    • Weight
    • Time
    • Distance
    • Displacement
    • Event
    • Resistance
    • Inductance
    • Capacitance
    • PH
    • Conductivity
    • Ionization
    • TDS
    • Force
    • Surface hardness
    • Brightness
    How You Can measure

    • Convert non visible change to Resistance, Electrical volt or current


    like
    1. Load cell ( Stress/strain to Volt)
    2. Pressure transmitter ( Pressure to Current)
    3. Level transmitter ( Level to Current)
    4. RTD ( Temperature to Resistance)
    5. Thermocouple ( Temperature to Volt)
    6. Tachometer ( Speed to Volt)
    7. Photo electric sensor ( light to Volt)
    8. Infrared Thermal sensor
    How You Can measure

    • Convert non visible changes to visible changes


    Like

    2. Manometer
    3. Color stickers
    4. Thermometer
    5. Speedometer
    6. Diaphragm
    7. Counter ( watch)
    Control System
    Elements of Control system
    • Sensor ( measurement element)
    • Indicating Controller ( control element)
    • Final control Element (correction element)
    Discussion
    • What is an instrumentation and why we need
    it?
    • Discussion on various types of sensors used in
    factory.
    • List sensors, indicators, controllers, final
    control elements.
    Questions

    1. What is an Instrumentation?
