Instrumentation Index Sheet

Instrumentation Index
• Instrument index is a document containing list of instrument devices within a plant.
• It include tag number of all physical instruments (e.g. field instrument, physical alarm
and indicator) and instruments which commonly named “soft tag” (e.g. DCS indication,
alarm, and controller).
• Instrument index shall be created at the beginning of project and considered as a live
document which should be kept updated even though the plant has been operated.
• Instrument index shall be revised if there is any plant or system modification which
impact to additional, removal, or resetting of instrument.

• Tag number
• Loop Number
• Type of Instrument
• Location
• Service description
• P&ID Number

Instrumentation Index Sheet


• From P&ID all instrument tag number are gathered along with its associated
information such as service description, instrument type, line/equipment number, set
point.
• A good quality P&ID may have distinct symbol that distinguish control system to which
each instrument connected.
2. HMB (Heat and Material Balance)
• We can determine measurement range of instrument based on process data on each
stream from HMB (Heat and Material Balance).
Reference document: Cause & Effect
• Instrument index should include fire and gas related tag numbers. Fire and gas devices
usually do not appear in P&ID, they are stated in cause and effect instead.
Purpose of instrument index
• As a basis to prepare the I/O list by extracting only the tag number which has I/O point.
• Searching, Listing, Filtering a tag number.
