Meaning of common PID diagram symbols

2019-08-02View Original

Thread Content

Since the PID legend is not very comprehensive, many symbols are unclear as to what they mean. Generally, what is the difference between XV and XZV? Are they all cut-off valves? What does Z mean? The electromagnetic three-way valve has the markings XDY and XZY – what do they mean?

If the PID diagram is drawn in accordance with the specifications, XV refers to valves controlled by the DCS system; XZV is a valve controlled by the SIS system.

XV is a valve controlled by the DCS system; XZV is a valve controlled by the SIS system. You can check the legend

So XDY is actually controlled by DCS, while XZY is controlled by SIS, right?
