After exploring lots of videos and articles about P&IDs we concluded that reading the valve symbols, lines, codes, etc. one by one and memorizing them, is the most tedious and wrong method of learning how to read P&IDs!
So in this video, we begin a new series about how to design and read piping and instrumentation diagrams correctly.
We have covered the following subjects in this part:
1. Common mistakes in Piping and Instrumentation Drawings
2. Which documents we should use to read a new P&ID
3. How to use the ISA 5.1 standard to design or read a P&ID?
4. What is a Legend and Abbreviation in a P&ID?
5. A P&ID example from an actual chemical process
6. What are Physical Instrument Symbols in a P&ID?
First, let’s clarify some common mistakes and ambiguities about P&IDs, mostly among students or junior engineers.
First off, PID and P&ID are totally different things! PID stands for Proportional, Integral, and Derivative which are parameters used in algorithms for controlling the process loops.
Second, you might hear different extended formats of P&ID and all of them represent the same document. For example:
- Piping and Instrumentation Diagram
- Process and Instrument Diagram
- Piping and Instrument Drawing
- ‘P’ means Piping or Process. But the piping is the more common.
- ‘I’ stands for Instrument or Instrumentation.
- ‘D’ is for Diagram or Drawing.
The third point is similar to other documents like electrical wiring diagrams, P&IDs are typically more than a single page. Four, five, ten, or even more pages depending on the process size, and you only see a specific part of the process on each page. These sheets are usually interconnected with each other.
Fourth, there are relevant or maybe close documents to P&IDs that have their own usage and you should not confuse them with each other. For instance, a Piping Isometric Drawing.
Piping Isometric Drawing is a sort of shop drawing that is mainly used by piping specialists. In addition to P&ID information, they include lots of data about fabricating pipelines such as type of fittings, flanges, direction and elevation of the pipes and instruments, and other characteristics.
Another fundamental yet related document that P&IDs are designed based on, is PFD or Process Flow Diagram.
In a Process Function Description, you mostly see the major equipment plus some pieces of piping. But have quite a lot more information in a P&ID, in comparison with the Process Flow Diagram.
You can think of a PFD as a preliminary version of a Piping and Instrumentation Diagram. So, to avoid confusion, a good starting point to read a new P&ID is the Process Flow Diagram, if available.
To investigate a Piping and Instrumentation Drawing, first, you should know that every company has its own way of illustrating and naming the symbols.
They show their symbology methods in detail, in some lead sheets called ‘Legend and Abbreviation’; usually it’s merely called Legend. In a legend, you see countless symbols for primary equipment, instrumentation, numbering and identification methods, piping arrangement, typical details for different instruments, and a lot more.
Although the fundamentals of these data are mainly derived from a standard document, known as ISA 5.1, and its latest revision was released in 2009.
So, to interpret a piping and instrumentation diagram we have two helpful documents! P&ID’s Legend and the ISA5.1 Standard.
I strongly suggest you watch this video as we have explored a real-world example of a Piping and Instrumentation Diagram in detail.
