Abstract Instrument lifecycle management is a systematic and digitalized approach that treats the entire process of an instrument—from design to disposal—as one integrated chain. By connecting data and ensuring collaborative management across each stage, organizations can achieve safety, reliability, cost efficiency, and regulatory compliance. 1. Lifecycle Stages of Industrial Instruments 1.1 Design & Selection Requirement […]

1. General Provisions PurposeThis system is established to ensure the long-term, stable, safe, and efficient operation of instrumentation equipment. By preventing unexpected failures, minimizing unplanned downtime, reducing maintenance costs, and extending equipment service life, it safeguards production continuity and process safety. Scope of ApplicationApplicable to all in-service instrumentation equipment within the company, including but not

1. Instrumentation Power Supply 1.1 Power Supply Provision Independent Power Setup: Critical instruments or instrumentation systems are equipped with dedicated uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). This ensures continuous power during unexpected outages in the main power grid, safeguarding data integrity and preventing equipment shutdown. For instance, essential monitoring instruments in production processes are supported by UPS

Introduction In mineral processing plants, flotation tanks are large vessels where slurry and froth separation takes place. At first glance, the control of liquid level in such large tanks seems to require long filling times and correspondingly large PID integral times. However, this intuitive assumption may lead to incorrect parameter settings. This document presents a

Abstract Power dips (voltage sags) are common disturbances in industrial power grids. If not handled properly, they may cause equipment trips, process interruptions, or even secondary accidents such as material leakage or equipment damage. This document provides technical guidance on how to ensure orderly equipment operation during power dips through PLC/DCS program optimization and emergency

Abstract Instrumentation and control systems are essential for stable, safe, and efficient industrial operations. However, failures inevitably occur due to various technical, environmental, and human factors. This document provides a comprehensive framework for fault diagnosis, organized into five systematic approaches: Causes of failures in instruments and control systems. Common fault factors in field instruments. Fault

Abstract Pipeline purging is widely recognized as a critical operation to ensure the cleanliness and reliability of gas pipelines. However, instrument purging is equally important for the stable and accurate performance of industrial automation systems. This article explains the necessity, procedures, common challenges, and system-wide impact of instrument purging, providing guidance for standardized operation in

In electrical and electronic engineering, GND (Ground) and COM (Common) are both widely used concepts, but they differ significantly in function, application, and electrical characteristics. Misunderstanding these terms can lead to wiring errors, signal interference, or even equipment damage. This article explains their differences with practical examples. 1. Definition and Core Function GND (Ground) Acts
