BALLOONS
The balloon or bubble symbol - this
represents an instrumentation and
control device.
The size is 5/16 or 10 mm in diameter
General guideline: the text inside must be
readable
According to ISA:
Local: The location of an instrument that is neither in nor on a
panel or console, nor is it mounted in a control room. Local
instruments are commonly in the vicinity of a primary element or
a final control element. The word "field" is often used
synonymously with local.
Local panel: A panel that is not a central or main panel. Local
panels are commonly in the vicinity of plant subsystems or
sub-areas. The term "local panel instrument" should not
be
