Code of practice for Instrumentation in process control systems: installation design and practice

Guidance on the design for the installation of instrumentation of measurement and control systems in the process industry.

This British Standard gives guidance on the design for the installation of instrumentation of measurement and control systems in the process industry and the implementation of this installation. It is intended to be used as a manual of good practice on the site and also to assist those who design the installation.

This code of practice is primarily intended for land based installations concerned with processing organic and inorganic materials and the generation of energy. It may also be applicable to some other plants but is likely to require special considerations not necessarily dealt with in this code.
