Instrument Hook-up Drawing

Hook-up drawing is a detailed drawing showing typical installation of instrument in a correct manner so that instrument operates properly (gives accurate indication and  prevent any issued which could potentially  affect the measurement such as liquid trap in gas impulse line).
Hook-up drawing indicates tubing slopes, position of instrument in reference to process tapping point, scope break between instrument vs piping.
Hook-up drawing also gives information the requirement of bulk material for each installation. It also details its specification (size, type and material) and the quantity.
There are two types of hook-up drawing:
  • Process Hook-Up
    • This hook-up drawing contains typical installations for instrument which connects to the process
  • Pneumatic Hook-Up
    • This hook-up drawing contains typical installations for instrument which requires instrument air such as control valve, actuated valve
Reference drawing: P&ID, Installation Detail Specification, Piping Specification
P&ID tells the designer which instrument requires a hook-up drawing. A good designer can also read whether the instrument tapped in gas service or liquid service.
Battery limit between instrument and piping shall be made clear, this is stated in P&ID symbol and typical sheet or piping documents.
Installation detail specification will also specify items that should be utilized and factor that should be considered in one installation
The purpose of Instrument Hook Up Drawing
As stated earlier, information of the requirement of bulk material is stated for installation on each sheet hence the bulk material required for the whole drawings could be summarized and tabulated in a document named Material Take Off.
During project construction phase, this drawing is also referred as a guidance of how to install the instrument properly.

PROFIBUS

 PROFIBUS PROFIBUS or Process Field Bus was introduced in 1989 and it is sometimes confused with PROFINET. It links plant automation modules with the process control. PROFIBUS uses a multi drop single cable to connect the devices. This method is cost effective especially for larger sites when compared to old methods. Its installation cost is low and it is easy to find faults as well because it is a single cable. Types of PROFIBUS There are two types or versions of PROFIBUS commonly known as 1.    PROFIBUS DP 2.    PROFIBUS PA Here is a brief introduction to both of these types. PROFIBUS DP It runs over two core screened cable that is violet sheathed and its speed varies from 9.6Kbps to 12Mbps. A particular speed can be chosen for a network to give enough time for communication with all the devices present in the network. If systems change slowly then lower communication speed is suitable and if the systems change quickly then effective communication will happen through

The Industrial Safety Systems and Their Types Industrial automation has minimized the human interaction with the machines but has not completely eliminated it. Industrial safety systems are introduced to protect the human who work in hazardous plants. Some examples of these are oil and gas, chemical and nuclear plants. The industrial safety systems not only protect the humans but also protect the environment and the plant itself from the chemical reactions. These systems do not control any process but in fact come into play when it is not possible to control a process through normal means. They are rather installed as a protective measure and are quickly becoming the need of every working environment. There are various types of safety systems in place and their use depends on the type of industry they are used in. Here is a look at some of them. Process Control Systems (PCS) They are installed for the monitoring of the manufacturing environment and they control the manufact

Large-scale, reliable, next-generation plant-wide field wireless system A new architecture for our “Grow” concept Yokogawa launched the world’s first wireless field products conforming to the ISA100.11a standard in 2010 and has led the business ever since. Now, Yokogawa has released a new, large-scale, reliable, next-generation plant-wide field wireless system. In developing this system, which forms the core of field digital solutions, Yokogawa has focused on the following three key features. 1. Reliability: reliable high-performance field wireless and redundant technologies 2. Flexibility: flexible architecture that supports the full range, from small to large-scale plants 3. Openness: open ISA100.11a standard that allows third-party field wireless devices to be connected This new system has been developed in line with Yokogawa’s “Grow” concept of helping customers to grow and enabling ourselves to evolve and continue to offer timely solutions.  →The individual spec
