Industrial Instrumentation and Control

Welcome Fellows!

In today's modern world, the top target of every plant management or plant ownership is to achieve the safest and maximum production out of their equipment, machinery and devices. In order to reach that target, one of the major steps it follows is to install good instrumentation in the plant. When we walk through a modern day plant, we find many transmitters, gauges, trolls, control valves, motors, solenoid valves etc. This is all nothing but Instrumentation.

But the fact is, that instrumentation can't do anything alone. It needs some brain that can constantly monitor the readings provided by it and takes actions accordingly to operate the final control elements like valves, motors etc. At the same time, these actions must ensure to operate these devices at optimal parameters as to ensure their health and long-life. This is where the world of control comes in.

Control System enables the instrumentation to operate in a way to give you the safest and optimum production. Nowadays, it is fully automatic. Once configured, it brings your whole plant over the screens of control room.

This blog has been developed in order to discuss about these two greatest technologies of industrial plants. We will be sharing our experiences, our ideas and our observations. We invite you to be the part of it to contribute it to be the world's best resource of learning and sharing the experiences of instrumentation and control.

Lets control it now!

  1. Its a good idea by SB. Because there are many thing an instrumentation engineer to be learn apart from there syllabus. I have some thing to say about this topic that may help others about Industrial Instrumentation and control.
    Industrial Instrumentation and control mainly deals with measurement, work automation and process of a Industry. It uses many device to measure Temperature, Pressure, Flow, Level, Humidity and many more parameters. and they all are controlled by according to there ranges of performance.

  2. Nowadays the value of Instrumentation Engineering very high because any plant or industry can run safely when Instrumentation Engineer was there. The role of him was to control or handle the total plant by monitoring from a server room. The different parameters like Temperature, Pressure, Level, Flow etc can be verified time to time and there accuracy, sensitivity, precision, drift and many more will be checked by the Instrumentation Engineer only.
