Students will have a clear idea of the various topics covered in this course
Explore fields of specialization for instrumentation engineers in EPC process plants, including process control, DCS and PLC systems, inspection, project execution, and instrument maintenance.
Define the design basis and control philosophy for instrumentation in process plants. Outline scope of APC work, standards, regulatory requirements, and integration of measurement and automation systems.
Explore detailed engineering for process plants, generating piping and instrumentation diagrams, safety and shutdown logic diagrams, cable schedules, and interface drawings for DCS, PLCs, KADA, and CC.
Explore how instrument engineers deliver detailed engineering drawings for EPC projects, including interlock safety and shutdown logic, cable routing, junction boxes, fire and gas detection, earthing, and DCS/PLC wiring diagrams.
Instrumentation engineers in EPC and process plants produce detailed engineering documents, including field site surveys, instrument index and data sheets, cable schedules, and functional design specifications for ESD and DCS.
•Gone are the days when chemical and petrochemical plants were operated manually employing a large number of field operators and local instruments. Modern Process Plants are turning away from earlier conventional solutions that relied on pneumatic, mechanical, or analog technologies as they design new plants or upgrade existing facilities.
•These old technologies have been replaced with state of the art solutions that rely on latest measurement techniques and digital technologies. This transformation has resulted in accurate and reliable data acquisition, analysis and control which has enormously increased the productivity , reliability, and safety of modern chemical plants thus meeting the environmental concerns.
•As a consequence of the above developments, Instrumentation Engineers are called upon to play a crucial role in design, engineering, construction, commissioning and operation of sophisticated instrumentation systems in oil and gas, chemical, petrochemical, Pharmaceutical , Cement, Fertilizer and other process industries mentioned above.
•Instrumentation Engineer is responsible for design, engineering and selection of multi various Instrumentation systems for the above process plants in conformity with the latest National and International codes and standards to meet the safety, environmental and other regulations.
•He controls, manages and interacts effectively with Engineers from various disciplines like Process, Mechanical, Electrical , Civil and structural, and Safety using the latest software & management skills to conceptualize, design, erect, commission and operate the vast and complex instrumentation systems such as digital indicators, flow meters, Coriolis meters; transmitters with digital sensors; and smart instruments with digital signal processing, advanced diagnostics, and digital communication protocols. for smooth, safe and efficient operation of the above process plants.
