2 ISA Symbols
Module Objectives:
Sketch a simple flow sheet using standard ISA symbols, given the
function and location of different instruments and the type of
transmission line connecting them.
What is the International Symbol of Access?
ISA Symbols
Line Symbols
Instrument Symbols
F = Flow
L = Level
T = Temperature
The second letter in the coding indicates the function of the instrument,
for example:
FI = Flow Indicator
FC = Flow Controller
LA = Level Alarm
LR = Level Recorder
PT = Pressure Transmitter
TE = Temperature Element
In some cases, when the instrument is used for two purposes or when
the function of the instrument has to be more clearly specified, a third
letter is used, for example:
A circle with a solid line across its diameter and the lettered code
above this line indicates a control room panel mounted instrument.
Symbol Example
The level transmitter is connected directly to the tank and the rest of
the instruments are driven by the level transmitter and used to monitor
and indicate the level in a tank.
