Course Description
Piping and instrumentation diagrams, also known as process and instrumentation diagrams, are commonly referred to as P&IDs. P&IDs illustrate the functional relationship of piping, instrumentation, equipment, and controllers. P&ID drawings are commonly made by process, controls, and electrical engineers. However, it is helpful for engineers of all disciplines to be able to read and understand P&IDs. This course summarizes P&IDs and includes examples to prepare engineers for real-world applications.
The following topics are covered:
- Overview of P&IDs
- Comparison of Engineering Diagrams
- Industry Standards
- Letter Designations
- Common Symbols
- Control Loops
- Examples
