rP&ID / ISA Symbols and Loop Diagrams
Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams or simply “P&IDs” are the
“Schematics” used in the field or Instrumentation and Control
(Automation).
The P&ID is used by the field technicians, engineers and operators to
better understand the process and how the instrumentation is
interconnected, ensuring the plant is operating efficiently.
Most industries have standardised the symbols according to the ISA

» Fittings are used in pipe systems to connect straight pipe or where change is direction is
required.
> Ends are already prepared.
> To adapt to different sizes, to branch out or re-direct the process (flow).
> To provide a joint if 2 dissimilar materials are used in one system.
Fittings for pipe most often made from the same base material as the pipe being
connected, e.g., carbon steel, stainless steel, copper or plastic.
Any material that is allowed by code may be used, but must be compatible with the other
materials in the system, the fluids being transported, and the temperatures and
pressures inside and outside of the system.
Lines below 50mm NB8 are normally screwed or socket weld.
Line 50mm and above are butt welded.Piping - FlangesPiping - Flanges
.
ny
Weld Neck flanges are used in critical applications. These are
circumferentially welded onto the system at their necks
which means that the integrity of the butt-welded area can
easily be examined by X-ray radiography.
The bores of both pipe and flange match thus reducing
turbulence and erosion.
Weld NeckPiping - Flanges
Socket Weld
ay
Socket Weld Flange is counter-bored to accept the
pipe, which is then fillet welded.
The bore of both the pipe and the flange are the
same to ensure good flows.Piping - Flanges
Slip-on Flange is slipped over the pipe and
then fillet welded. Easy to use in
fabricated applications.Piping - Flanges
Threaded
ie Threaded Pipe
a
ZP
Screwed or Threaded Flange requires no
welding and is used to connect other
threaded components in low pressure non-
critical applications.

a # Lap Joint
a Stub
oe End
e -
~ es ZS
Lap Flange (or Backing Flange) are used with a stub end
which is butt-welded to the pipe with the lap flange acting as
a loose collar behind it. Thus the stub end always provides
the sealing face. This type of joint is easily assembled and
aligned, and it is favoured in low pressure applications.Piping - Flanges
Blind Flange or sometimes called a Blanking
Flange, this is used for blanking off pipelines,
valves and pumps and as an inspection cover.Piping - ValvesPiping - Valves
A valve is a mechanical device that controls the flow of fluid and pressure within a
system or process.
A valve controls system or pracess fluid flow and pressure by performing any of the
following functions:
3 Stopping and starting fluid flow.
Varying (throttling) the amount of fluid flow.
Controlling the direction of fluid flow.
Regulating downstream system or process pressure.
Relieving component or piping over pressure.
There are many valve designs and types that satisfy one or more of the functions
identified above.
A multitude of valve types and designs safely accommodate a wide variety of
process applications.
VW
Vv
Complex control systems will use feedback from an instrument to control
these types of valves to regulate pressure, temperature or flowrate depending
on the control parameters required.Piping - Valves
