2. Instrumentation in petrochemical industries - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_in...

   Packaged items of equipment (compressors, diesel engines, electricity generators, etc) are fitted with local vendor supplied instrumentation. When equipment malfunctions a multivariable signal (UA) is sent to the control room. The fire and gas detection system comprises local sensors to detect the presence of gas, smoke or fire. These initiate ...

4. Control loop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_loop

   A control loop is the fundamental building block of control systems in general and industrial control systems in particular. It consists of the process sensor, the controller function, and the final control element (FCE) which controls the process necessary to automatically adjust the value of a measured process variable (PV) to equal the value of a desired set-point (SP).

5. Industrial control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_control_system

   An industrial control system (ICS) is an electronic control system and associated instrumentation used for industrial process control.Control systems can range in size from a few modular panel-mounted controllers to large interconnected and interactive distributed control systems (DCSs) with many thousands of field connections.

6. Control panel (engineering) - Wikipedia

   A control panel is a flat, often vertical, area where control or monitoring instruments are displayed or it is an enclosed unit that is the part of a system [1] that users can access, such as the control panel of a security system (also called control unit).

7. Safety instrumented system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_instrumented_system

   An SIS is intended to perform specific control functions to prevent unsafe process operations when unacceptable or dangerous conditions occur. Because of its criticality, safety instrumented systems must be independent from all other control systems that control the same equipment, in order to ensure SIS functionality is not compromised.

8. Instrumentation - Wikipedia
