High Reliability of Safety Instrumented Systems
Instrumentation safety may be broadly divided into two categories: the safety hazards posed by malfunctioning instruments, and special instrument systems

Calibration refers to the adjustment of an instrument so its output accurately corresponds to its input throughout a specified range.
In Control Valve Sequencing, for example, both control valves received the same pneumatic signal from a common I/P (current-to-pressure) converter.
Different Types of Flow Elements or Flow Sensors are Pitot tube, Annubar flow element, orifice, venturi, flow nozzle and Differential Pressure Flow Sensors.
Since process chromatographs have the ability to independently analyze the quantities of multiple species within a chemical sample, these instruments
In the broadest sense, a “selector” control strategy is where one signal is selected from multiple signals in a system
A common application for select and limit functions is in cascade control strategies, where the output of one controller becomes
Feedforward control works by directly modulating the manipulated variable in a control system according to changes sensed in the load(s).
Flow measurement accuracy of any flow meter becomes compromised is incorrect installation, and pressure-based flow meters are no exception to this rule.
