PIDs and Symbols Chapter 02 PIDs and Symbols
P&IDs and Symbols Chapter 02 – P&IDs and Symbols EMEC 125
P&ID – Widely Understood? • P&ID is an acronym that is well understood to be the document used to define a process. • Definition: • “A schematic diagram of the relationship between instruments, controllers, piping, and system equipment. ” (Kirk, Weedon, & Kirk, 2014, p. 23) • P&IDs are a symbol based schematic language that once understood, adds simplicity to the information being presented. • They can also be confusing when a unique symbol appears. • There is no real standard for what should be included on the drawing.
P&ID Acronym • What does P&ID stand for? • The letter meanings are not universal. • ‘P’ could stand for “Piping” or it could stand for “Process”. • ‘I’ could represent “Instrumentation” or represent “Instrument”. • ‘D’ could mean “Drawing” or it could mean “Diagram”. • Which ever is used, including those not listed, we are all talking about the same document(s).
New ISA Standard – ISA-5. 7 (Not Yet Released) • As mentioned, “there is no universal, national, international or international multi-discipline standard that covers the development and content of P&IDs” (Meier & Meier, 2011, p. 27) • The ISA is in the process of creating a standard that will be known as: ISA-5. 7 and is based on the Process Industries Practice (PIP) PIC 001. • There is a standard that governs the symbols used on P&IDs. This standard is ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -2009 Instrument Symbols and Identifications. (See the introduction to this course)
What Comes From P&IDs? • Instrument Lists or Index • Documents specifications, acquisition and installation • Motor Lists • Size, horsepower, voltage • Piping • Line lists, sizes, service and purpose • Tanks & Vessels • Information about tanks and vessels • All this information is used to lay out equipment, start specifying and purchasing the necessary equipment.
A Few Acronyms • BPCS – Basic Process Control System “ 1. The control equipment that is installed to perform the normal regulatory functions for the process—for example, PID control and sequential control. [ANSI/ISA-91. 01 -1995] 2. A system that responds to input signals from the equipment under control and/or from an operator and generates output signals that cause the equipment under control to operate in the desired manner. Some examples include control of an exothermic reaction, antisurge control of a compressor, and fuel/ air controls in fired heaters. Also referred to as process control system. [ANSI/ISA-84. 01 -1996]” (International Society of Automation, 2003, p. 43)
A Few Acronyms • BPCS – Basic Process Control System • HLCS – High Level Control System “A system above that of BPCS” (Meier & Meier, 2011, p. 31)
A Few Acronyms • BPCS – Basic Process Control System • HLCS – High Level Control System • SIS – Safety Instrumented System “A system that is composed of sensors, logic solvers, and final control elements whose purpose is to take the process to a safe state when predetermined conditions are violated. Other terms commonly used include "emergency shutdown system" (ESS), "safety shutdown system" (SSD), and "safety interlock system. " [ANSI/ISA-84. 01 -1996] See emergency shutdown system (ESS) and safety shutdown (SSD). ” (International Society of Automation, 2003, p. 433)
Process Control Functions • Sensing Formal Definition of Sensing “ 1. To examine, particularly relative to a criterion. 2. To determine the present arrangement of some element of hardware, especially a manually set switch. ” (International Society of Automation, 2003, p. 43) “ To ascertain or measure a process variable (PV) and convert that value into some understandable form. ” (Meier & Meier, 2011, p. 32)
Process Control Functions • Sensing • Comparing “To compare the value of the process variable (PV) with the desired setpoint (SP) and to develop a signal to bring the two together. The signals depend on: • How far apart the PV & SP are • How long they have been apart • How fast they are moving toward or away from each other” (Meier & Meier, 2011, p. 31)
Process Control Functions • Sensing • Comparing • Correcting
Control Loop • A collection of equipment consisting of at least three devices used to automatically control a process or a part of a process • The three most common devices is: • A transmitter used to sense the PV and transmit the measured value to a controller • A controller used to compare the PV with a setpoint and generate a signal based on that comparison • A final control element that corrects the process
Pneumatic Control Loop
Valve Failures • Valves can fail in various positions • • • Fail Open (FO) Fail Closed (FC) Fail Locked (FL) Fail in Last Position, Drift Open (FL/DO) Fail in Last Position, Drift Closed (FL/DC) • Valves are shown on a P&ID by a shape that resembles a bow tie • Actuators are shown with a line from the bow tie junction to a shape such as a half circle, a square, a horizontal line, etc. (More on valve symbols later in the chapter. • The next slide shows symbols for valve failures

ANSI/ISA-5. 1 • As stated earlier, the ANSI/ISA-5. 1 is most often used by designers as the standard for symbology. Following is a direct quote from the standard: “The symbols and identification methods contained in this standard have evolved by the consensus method and are intended for wide application throughout all industries. The symbols and designations are used as conceptualizing aids, as design tools, as teaching devices, and as a concise and specific means of communication in all types and kinds of technical, engineering, procurement, construction, and maintenance documents and not just in Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams. ” (International Society of Automation, 2009)
Instrument Identification (Tag Numbers) • All instruments should have a metal, plastic or paper tag attached to them that states an instrument identification number; known as a “Tag Number”. • There are several numbering schemes; however, the ISA standard, ISA -RP-5. 1 (1949) superseded by ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -1984 (R 1992) superseded by ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -2009 is the most common. • Tag numbers are an alpha-numeric code where the: • Alpha portion should be no more than four upper case characters • Numeric portion should be know more than four digits. • The smaller the tag number, the better.
Typical Instrument Tag Number • PDT 102 – Instrument Identification or Tag Number • PDT – Function Identification • P 102 – Loop Identification • 102 – Loop Number • P - First Letter • DT - Succeeding Letters • The most common identifiers are used for the most common process variables in process control: • • F – Flow L – Level P – Pressure T - Temperature Note: Hyphens are optional as separators
The Letter ‘X’ as a First Letter • The letter ‘X’ as a first letter in a special case. • The ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -2009 Standard states: • “First-Letter or Succeeding-Letter for unclassified devices or functions (X), for non-repetitive meanings that shall be defined outside tagging bubbles or by a note in the document. ” (International Society of Automation, 2009) • A legend sheet and descriptive letters next to the bubble should define the function letter ‘X’. • Proper use is to not use the letter ‘X’ frequently and when used should only be used once, or at least in a limited capacity
Identification Letters • The ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -2009 Instrumentation Symbols and Identification standard lists the preferred First Letter and Succeeding Letters. • The standard also lists typical letter combinations. • Keep these lists handy when reading or creating P&ID’s. ISA 5. 1 (2009). pdf
Symbology – Building Blocks • Circles (Bubbles) • Squares & Rectangles • Triangles • Half Circles • Lines
General Consideration • Symbol and text size may vary according to the needs of the user and type of drawing being generated • Smallest recommended bubble size is: 3/8” (9 -10 mm) diameter • For a “D-Size” drawing (22” x 34”) • Bubble should be at least: 9/16” (14 -15 mm) • Square or diamond should be at least: ¼” x ¼” (6 -7 mm x 6 -7 mm) • Be careful of sizes if “D-Size” drawings are reduced to “C-Size” drawings • Line weight: • Leaders should be lighter than process lines (Mc. Avinew & Mulley, 2004)
Instrument Numbering • Consists of a loop number which is a number assigned to all devices within a function. • A loop number along with the letter designator uniquely identifies and links each device within a set or loop. • The numbering system used may or may not use the suggestions in the ANSI/ISA-5. 1 -2009 Standard. • The valid numbering systems provide unique identification of each device, group related and looped.
Instrument Location Information • ISA standard instrument symbols, location and accessibility • Symbols are used to help identify the type of: • Instrument • Location • • Located in the field Not panel, console or cabinet mounted Visible at the field location Accessible to the operator Located in or on front of central or main console or panel Visible on front panel Location at rear of main or central panel Not accessible to the operator
