Piping and instrumentation diagram/drawing (P&ID)

Introduction:

A
P&ID
is
a
detailed
graphical
representation of a process including the
hardware and software (e.g., piping,
equipment, instrumentation) necessary to
design, construct and operate the
facility. P&ID diagram has to show the
interconnection of all the process
equipments and the instruments used. It
is critical to show the actual sequence of
equipment and other assets of the
process, as well as how they are connect. During the design stage, the diagram also
provides the basis for the development of process. P&IDs play a very significant role
in the maintenance and modification of the process.
P&ID is a graphical (symbolic) representation of the process which demonstrates all
the piping with flow direction and instruments details with their controls. The
equipments also show all the operational information at the top or bottom of the
sheet hence avoids cluttering. All the equipments and instruments including
pipelines and values are tagged uniquely.
P&ID shows all of piping including the physical sequence of branches, reducers,
valves, equipment, instrumentation and control interlocks.
P&ID includes:

Instrumentation and designations

Mechanical equipment with names and numbers

All valves and their identifications

Process piping, sizes and identification

Miscellaneous - vents, drains, special fittings, sampling lines, reducers,

increasers and swages

Permanent start-up and flush lines

Flow directions

Interconnections references

Human Machine Interface

Assignment: Piping and instrumentation diagram

Human machine interface
(Human Machine Interface) The user interface in a manufacturing or process
control system. It provides a graphics-based visualization of an industrial control
and monitoring system. Previously called an "MMI" (man machine interface), an HMI
typically resides in an office-based Windows computer that communicates with a
specialized computer in the plant such as a programmable automation controller
(PAC), programmable logic controller (PLC) or distributed control system (DCS).
Description
Human machine interfaces (HMI) are operator interface terminals with which users
interact in order to control other devices. Some human machine interfaces include
knobs, levers, and controls. Others provide programmable function keys or a full key
pad. Devices that include a processor or interface to personal computers (PCs) are
also available. Many human machine interfaces include alphanumeric or graphic
displays. For ease of use, these displays are often backlit or use standard messages.
When selecting human machine interfaces, important considerations include
devices supported and devices controlled. Device dimensions, operating
temperature, operating humidity, and vibration and shock ratings are other
important factors.
