1 P&ID SYMBOLSP&ID SYMBOLSISA Symbols and Loop DiagramsProcess Analysis and ControlP&ID Handout Page 1P&IDs Piping & Instrumentation Drawing (original) Process & Instrumentation Diagram (also used) Process Flow Diagram PFD (simplified version ofthe P&ID)Most industries have standardized the symbols according to the ISA Standard Instrumentation Symbol Specification. Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams or simply P&IDs are the schematics used in the field of instrumentation and control (Automation)The P&ID is used to by field techs, engineers, and operators to better understand the process and how the instrumentation is inter connected.

For example no line means the instrument is installed in the field near the Y Z123X Y Z123X Y ZNo LineThe instrument is mounted in the field near the process, (close to the operator)Solid LineThe instrument is mounted in the control room (accessible to the operator)No LineThe instrument is mounted out of sight (not accessible to the operator)Process Analysis and ControlP&ID Handout Page 10 Shared Displays/Shared ControlShared Displays/Shared ControlSome instruments are part of a Distributed Control System (DCS) where a specific controller or indicator can be selected from many others but shown in one location (like a terminal screen)
