Instrument Loop Diagram
Every process control loop has an instrument loop diagram (ILD) drawn for it. ILDs givemore information about control loops than any other drawing. Although they are of interestmainly to instrumentation engineers and tech-nicians they are one of the most commondrawings seen in Saudi Aramco.
ILD Symbols And Abbreviations
Handout No. 1 (Drawing No. 990-J-36492 Sheets 1 and 2) shows common ILD symbols andabbreviations. Some of them will be described in detail in this module.

ILD Symbols and Abbreviations(Cont'd)
Orifice Plate(Cont'd). An orifice plate is placed into a pipeline to cause a pressure differentialbetween its upstream and downstream flow. H and L stand for High and Low. They indicatethe high and low pressure sides of the plate. The difference in pressure is used to indicateflow rate. Pressure differential varies as the square of the flow rate. Therefore, the squareroot of the pressure differential reading is needed in order to obtain the linear value of theflow rate.
Process variable measuring devices, such as orifice plates, are sometimes called elements.
The mark number, seen in Figure 1, is the identification, or tag, number given to the flowelement. Bore is the size of the hole, in inches, in the orifice plate. The line number is theidentification number of the pipeline.
Control Valve. Figure 3 shows the symbol for a control valve. The letter S above the smalltriangle means there is an air supply to open or close the valve. The abbreviation INST meansthat an instrument air signal is supplied to the valve positioner. The positioner is shown bythe square block.
The output air signal is shown going to the top of the valve. Therefore, the valve operates byair pushing down onto the diaphragm.
The mark number for this valve would be PCV, TCV, LCV, or FCV (for pressure,temperature, level or flow control valve) followed by the loop number.
Size rating is the size, in inches, of the valve inlet and outlet bore.
A. F. ACTION, sometimes shown only as ACTION, says what the valve will do if there is anAir Failure (AF). The word OPEN or CLOSE will be shown after A.F. ACTION.

Electrical Switches. Figures 4 and 5 show electrical switches. In Figure 4, NO means NormallyOpen. NC means Normally Closed.
The letter C on its own means Common. By operating the Hand Switch, C can be connectedeither to NO or to NC.
Mark No. is the identification of the switch.
In Figure 5, SET AT is the value of the process variable at which the switch will automaticallytrip open or close. The value will be shown in psi, °F, or %, depending on the type of switchused (that is, the type of process variable that is being controlled). The symbol % is oftenused in level control. Level may be given not as a dimension but as a percentage of the vesselcapacity. For example the set point may be 75% to show that the vessel should be kept at75% full.

All four transmitter types use differential pressure to measure level. Types 1 and 3 are thesame except that 1 is pneumatic and 3 is electronic. Both use dry legs.
Types 2 and 4 are the same except that 2 is electrical and 4 is pneumatic. Both use wet legs.Pressure measurement is sometimes expressed as the height of a column of water. This isbecause a column of water one foot high produces a known pressure of 0.433 psi.Alternatively, a column of water 27.7 inches high produces a pressure of 1.0 psi.
We can use this information to convert liquid pressure measurements into liquid levelmeasurements.
DP transmitters can be fitted with a biasing spring kit. The spring can be used to adjust orbalance out certain differential pressure readings in order to give us the actual readings werequire. When the bias acts to oppose pressure on the high side, it is called suppression.When it acts to assist pressure on the high side, it is called elevation. An example is shownbelow.

The pressure of liquid in the seal (or wet) leg is not needed for determining the liquid level inthe tank. Therefore, bias can be applied to balance out this pressure. Because bias in thiscase is assisting pressure on the high side, we have elevation.

Level Transmitters (Cont'd). Figure 15 shows how a differential pressure transmitter is used tomeasure level in a vessel open to the atmosphere.
Atmospheric pressure acts on the top of the water and also on the low pressure side of the DPcell. Therefore, the difference in pressure between the high and low sides of the cell is equalonly to the pressure exerted by the water level.
Example: If the DP cell senses a pressure differential of 10 psi it means that the level of wateris 10 x 27.7 inches.

In order to obtain a differential pressure that depends only on the liquid level, the pressure ofthe tank atmosphere must be cancelled out. This is done by connecting the low side of the DPcell to the top of the tank. This connection is called a dry leg.

The atmosphere in a tank may carry vapor from the liquid. If a dry leg DP cell is being used,some of the vapor will condense in the leg. After a time, liquid at varying levels could collectin the leg. This would cause differential pressure readings that do not represent only theheight of liquid in the vessel.

To overcome this problem the wet legs are made to a known height, then filled with liquid.Because the liquid level in the leg is constant, the pressure it exerts on the low side of the DPcell is constant. This pressure can be taken into account when reading differential pressure.Figure 17 shows that it is possible for the low side pressure to be greater than the high sidepressure. DP cells are always connected with their high side to the vessel.

Pressure and Flow Transmitters. Figure 19 shows two kinds of transmitters, one for pressure andone for flow. The difference is in the connection to the process. Pressure measurementrequires only one connection. Flow measurement requires two connections; one for the highpressure side of the orifice plate, and one for the low side.

The meaning of the terms shown on the controller are explained below.
Mark No. identifies the process variable or loop number which is being controlled.
Set Point is the process variable value to which the controller has been set. It is the valueneeded for efficient and safe operation. The set point setting can be altered by the operatorwhen necessary.
P Band means proportional band. This is a setting which determines the amount the variablemeasurement must change from the set point for the control valve to move through 100% ofits travel. For example, suppose the total travel of a control valve is 6" (that is from fullyclosed to fully open is a travel of 6"). If a total deviation of the process variable from setpoint is also 6" (that is 3" below set point to 3" above set point) then the P Band is 100%(because a 6" movement of the variable causes a 6" movement of the valve).
Note that the controller has a constant pressure air supply. The output of this supply dependson the input being received from the transmitter (which signal depends on the process variablemeasurement).

Level Control. Figure 21 shows a level control system. The valve is fully closed when thelevel is 3" above its set point. It is fully open when the level is 3" below its set point.Therefore, the level must travel through its full range in order to move the valve through100% of its travel (6"). Therefore, P (Proportional) Band is 100%.

Level Control (Cont'd). Reset may have a time value next to it. Reset is used with proportionalcontrol to return a variable back to its set point. (Reset is also sometimes called Gain.)
For example, Figure 24 shows a stable process. The level is at set point and 50 gpm isentering and leaving the tank.

Level Control (Cont'd). If for some reason the flow leaving the tank increases to 60 gpm thelevel will fall. The float will then cause the control valve to open and input flow will increase.However, the valve cannot adjust until after the level has deviated from set point. Hence, anew stable condition may exist which is not at set point, as shown in Figure 25. Thedifference between the new level and the set point is called offset.

Level Control (Cont'd). Reset is used to help the proportional control to bring the variable backto set point. It does this by sending an extra signal to the control valve. The signal adjusts thecontrol valve until set point is reached. Then the reset signal stops.
The reset mechanism is part of the controller. It has a scale on which different times can beset, for example from 0.1 to 50 minutes. A setting of 0.5 means that the control valve will beadjusted every 0.5 minutes until set point is reached.
Derivative also may have a time value next to it. It is usually used only in TemperatureControl Loops. Derivative is sometimes called Rate Action or Integral.
Derivative is necessary because proportional plus reset control may take a long time to correcttemperature deviations from set point. Derivative action is concerned with how fast atemperature is changing from set point.
If temperature is deviating only slowly from set point, the controller will make only smalladjustments to the control valve. Derivative action senses the speed of the changeimmediately the change begins (unlike reset, which responds after the change has occurredand caused offset).
If the rate of change is high, derivative immediately causes a large adjustment to be made tothe control valve to bring the temperature under control.
Derivative action stops when the temperature stops changing.
The derivation mechanism is also a part of the controller. It uses the same kind of time scaleas the reset unit.
Action will have Direct or Reverse next to it. Direct means that if the input signal to aninstrument is increased, the output signal from the instrument will also increase. Reversemeans that if the input signal increases, the output signal decreases.

Indicating Controller. Figure 26 shows the symbols used for an indicating controller. They arethe same as for a basic controller except that a scale range for the variable will be given.Scales may be linear or square root.
Linear scales are used for those process variables which change in direct proportion tochanges in instrument output signals, e.g. level, temperature, pressure. Flow measurements,however, are taken from differential pressure readings at an orifice plate. Differentialpressure changes in proportion to the square of the flow rate. Therefore, the square root of thedifferential pressure must be found (or extracted) from a differential pressure signal in orderto find the flow rate. This is why some scales are square root.

Three-Way Valve Operation. Figure 32 shows the normal operation of a three-way valve. Whenthe coil is energized, air flows to the control valve actuator without interruption.
When the solenoid coil is de-energized (which is what happens when the Emergency ShutDown (ESD) button is pressed) the three-way valve closes. This blocks the flow of air to thecontrol valve. At the same time, the 3-way valve allows the air which is operating the controlvalve to vent to the atmosphere. This causes the control valve to close.

1The mark number (which is the same as a tag or identification number) of the flow element is 101 (that is, FE-101). The BORE of the flow element is 6" (that is, the hole through the orifice plate is 6" diameter). H and L show on which side of the orifice plate high and low pressures are sensed. The pipeline is 10" pipe and the pipeline number is 10"-P-145-1A1. The Mark Number for the Flow Transmitter is 101 (that is, FT-101). The pressure measuring range of the transmitter is 0-100" water column (WC). Auxiliary process lines take high and low pressure to the flow transmitter. This is an electrically operated flow transmitter, as shown by the electric signal lines . The electrical signal lines are shielded all the way from the transmitter to the next loop component. E-3007 is the identification number of the electrical signal line cable. Electronic loops use standard instrument signals of either 4 to 20 mA or 10 to 50 mA, direct current. The drawing shows that 4-20 mA DC is being used.

The level in the drum is sensed by the level transmitter, LT-113. The transmitter sendspneumatic signals to a level indicating controller, LIC-113, and to two level switches LS-113A andLS-113B.
In turn, LIC-113 sends pneumatic signals to a level control valve, LCV-113. If the level inthe drum goes low, the signals cause the control valve to open. This allows more make-upwater to flow into the drum. If the level goes high, the signals cause the valve to close. Thisreduces the make-up water flow rate.
The level switches are connected to high and low alarms (XA-3-32 and XA-3-33). Theswitches are set to operate if the drum level goes dangerously high or dangerously low. Theyare operated by the pneumatic signals coming from the level transmitter. The 3 refers to therow number on the control panel.

Handout No. 3 (Drawing Number J-415-NB-582636) shows an electronic instrument controlloop. Electronic loops are more complicated than pneumatic loops. There are two reasons forthis:
• Loop components are both field mounted and located in the control room. Also, theinstruments may be great distances away from each other. They must be connectedtogether by electric wires. The wires may pass through one or more junction boxes.
• The electric wiring connections between instruments must be done in such a way thatcomplete electric circuits are formed.

Figure 46 shows the symbol for the transducer. You can tell it is a transducer because it hastwo electrical connections, an air supply and a pneumatic output line. The two electric wiresare part of the control loop electric circuit. The current through the transducers varies withchanges in process variable values. Air at a constant pressure of 20 psig is supplied to thetransducer. The output value of the air pressure varies with changes in the transducer current.Hence, electric signals are converted to pneumatic signals.
The symbol for a transducer is sometimes drawn as a square, but Foxboro, the companywhich makes the instrument, draw it as a circle.

A marshalling box (MB) is simply a big junction box. It is usually located just inside thecontrol room building. It is a collection point for field wiring that comes into the controlroom from many parts of the plant. From the marshalling box, the instrument loop wiring isorganized and routed to various display areas and panels in the control room.

TRACING CURRENT FLOW IN CONTROL LOOPS
The symbol at the bottom right-hand corner of Figure 56 is for a three-pen recorder. Pennumber 2 records pressure values on PR-51. The recorder operates with a 118V, 60Hzsupply.
In order to record pressure values, the recorder must be connected to the pressure controlloop. It must receive signals that indicate the pressure values.
A study of the ILD, on Handout No. 3, shows that the power to operate the pressuretransmitter, PT-51, is supplied by the pressure controller, PC-51. The controller also operateswith a 118V, 60Hz supply. The ILD shows that a multi-wire cable connects the pressurecontroller output to terminal 1 on terminal strip BK. A wire connects terminal 1 to thepositive side of the pressure transmitter, PT-51. The transmitter acts as a variable resistor. Itsresistance depends on the value of the process variable. Therefore, the current flowingthrough the control loop changes as the transmitter resistance changes. And this change is ameasure of the process variable.
From the transmitter, the current flows through the pressure indicator, PI-51. From there itgoes to terminal BK-3. From BK-3 the current flows through a 100- ohm resistor to BK-4. Awire connects BK-4 to BH-6. A wire from the multi-wire cable connects BH-6 to the plug.The ILD shows this connection to be letter H on the plug (a violet colored wire). The currentgoes to operate PR-51.
In order for the current to flow, there must be a complete circuit. Therefore, the current thatoperates PR-51 must be returned to its source, PC-51. The ILD shows that this is done byconnecting a wire from the multi-wire cable (a brown wire) to terminal 7 on terminal stripBH. This wire acts as a return wire. It takes the return current from PR-51 to BH-7. A wireconnects BH-7 to terminal 2 on terminal strip BK. A wire from the multi-cable wire isconnected to BK-2. The IDL shows this to be connection U on the plug (a grey color wire).The connection completes the circuit.

Input signals such as 4-20 mA, 10-50 mA, millivolts and ohms can be used by the system.These signals are converted to 0 - 10 Volts DC signals by input signal converters. The 0 - 10V signals are used by rack and panel mounted instruments, such as controllers, indicators,recorders and alarms. Using small voltage signals makes the system safe to work on.
All Spec 200 instruments are connected in parallel. This allows components to be removedfrom the loop without breaking up the system. It also means that the same voltage is appliedto all components.
Output signal converters are used to send 4-20 mA and 10-50 mA signals to field instruments.
The Spec 200 system consists of two areas: the display area and the nest area, as shown inFigure 64.
The display area contains the recorders and indicators, and provides all the informationneeded by operators.
The nest area contains the circuit cards for the control, computing, input and outputconverters, alarm and conditioning units.
Nest units are fitted into sections called racks.

Suppose the following: A process control loop is for pressure control; the set point is 15 psi;the transmitter has a range of 0-30 psi; the current range for the transmitter is 4-20 milliamps.
From the above it follows that a set point of 15 psi is equal to 50% of the transmitter's range.This gives a signal of 12 mA (i.e. 50% of 4-20 mA range). As long as the process pressureremains steady at 15 psi, the transmitter sends a 12 mA signal. When the 12 mA signalreaches the input buffer and signal converter relay card in the nest unit, it is changed to avoltage signal.
Spec 200 operates on 0-10 V. Since 12 mA is exactly half the transmitter range, the voltagesignal would also be exactly half its range, that is, 5 V. Therefore, the relay card in theconverter sends a 5 V signal to all other components in the control loop. For example, 5 voltswill be sent to the recorder and this will be seen as 15 psi on the recorder graph.
The transducer operates on a milliamp range. Therefore, the voltage signal must be convertedback to an amperage signal before it enters the transducer. This is done by the card in theoutput buffer and signal converter in the nest unit.
The Spec 200 cards are used for specific functions. Some of these functions are describedbelow.

The Function of the 2AI-I2V Current to Voltage Converter Card. The Foxboro current convertercard Model No. 2AI-I2V is a solid state component located in the nest assembly. 2AI-I2Vstands for:
2 - A Spec 200 componentA - Analog signals in and outI - Input instrumentI - Current signals in2 - This is an isolated cardV - Voltage signals out
The 2AI-I2V card has only one function. It receives 4 to 20 mA signals from a fieldtransmitter and changes them to 0 to 10-volt signals. These are the signals needed by theSpec 200 system. The voltage output is proportional to the current input.
The card can operate with two inputs and two outputs for dual operation. This means that thecard can receive and convert 4-20 mA signals from two transmitters.
The input (current signals) sides of the card circuit are isolated electrically from the outputsides (voltage signals). The two circuits are not connected by wires, but the input influencesthe output because it passes through a transformer. This induces a proportional voltage in theoutput side of the transformer coils.
Isolated cards are used because they give more protection to the cards. For example, a shortcircuit in the transmitter circuit will not damage the card.
If the figure 3 were shown in place of the 2, it would mean that the card was not isolated.
The Function of the Controller Card 2AX+45. The Foxboro controller card, 2AX+45, haselectronic circuits that receive the input signals and modify them according to the controlsettings. The card sends an electronic output signal to control a final control element, usuallya control valve.

The Function of 2AP+ALM-AR Alarm Card. Alarm cards cause alarms to sound in the plantcontrol room if operating conditions become abnormal.
The Foxboro 2AP+ALM-AR is a dual alarm card. That means that it can monitor twodifferent variables at the same time. 2AP+ALM-AR stands for:
2 - Spec 200 componentA - Analog signals in and outP - Process component moduleALM - AlarmAR - Dual absolute alarm - relay output
The card can be set to send output signals to two different alarm lights. For example, the2AP+ALM-AR alarm card could monitor pressure for a low condition and temperature for ahigh condition. The card can also be set to monitor both high and low conditions for thesame process variable. It could do this using only one input signal.
The alarm card is a solid state function card that slides into a module in the nest unit. Thecard has two single alarm circuits with a common power supply. Each alarm has one input,one set point, and one output. Alarm points are calibrated from zero to 100% of scale.
The alarm card receives voltage signals from other function cards, such as a square rootextractor, or a resistance-to-voltage temperature card. It has two relays built into it, one foreach alarm circuit. When the alarm is off, the relays on the alarm card are energized. Therelay contacts are normally open (NO) and this gives a no-alarm condition, as shown inFigure 66.

The Function of 2AP+ALM-AR Alarm Card (Cont'd. So long as the process variable that the alarmcard is monitoring stays within its set-point range, the relay will stay energized.
Imagine that the alarm circuit is monitoring a pressure control loop. The alarm is set to comeon if the pressure goes too high. At this condition, the voltage signal coming into the alarmcard will be at the value for which the alarm card has been set. This will cause the relay to bedeenergized. When this happens the NC contacts close, as shown in Figure 67, and the alarmlight comes on.

The Function of the 2AO-V2I V/I Card The Foxboro voltage to current (V/I) card is a solid statecomponent located in the nest assembly. 2AO-V2I stands for:
2 - Spec 200 componentA - Analog signals in and outO - Output instrumentV - Voltage signals in2 - This is an isolated cardI - Current signals out
The 2AO-V2I card has only one function. It receives input voltage signals from the controllercard and converts these 0 to 10 volts to a 4 to 20 mA output signal. This output signal is sentto a field mounted transducer. The current output is proportional to the voltage input.
The Function of the 2AI-P2VR/V Converter Card. The Foxboro 2AI-P2V resistance to voltageconverter card is a solid state component located in the nest assembly. It produces an outputvoltage signal that is proportional to the temperature of a resistance temperature detector(RTD). 2AI-P2V stands for:
2 - Spec 200 componentA - Analog signals in and outI - InputP - Platinum resistance bulb2 - An isolated cardV - Voltage output
The converter card has two inputs and two outputs for dual operation with a common powersupply.

The Function of the 2AI-P2VR/V Converter Card (Cont'd). A resistance temperature detector(RTD) is used to monitor the temperature of a process. The resistance measured by the RTDis sent into the converter card. The card changes the measured resistance from ohms intovolts. The card is calibrated so that the low end of the temperature range corresponds to zerovolts. The high end of the temperature range is calibrated to correspond to 10 volts.
Output signals from the converter card can go to a loop controller, a temperature indicator, atemperature recorder, and to an alarm card.
NOTE: Some cards may be identified as 2AI-N2V, where the N stands for nickel. RTDsoperate on the principle that some metals increase their electrical resistance when heated.
Other abbreviations often seen on Spec 200 cards are:
I/P for inputO/P for outputDS for Distribution
ÆP/I means differential pressure (ÆP) input, current (I) output.

Note the word analog on some of the card symbols. This means that the card is operatingwith numbers that are represented by directly measurable quantities, such as voltage,amperage. That is, the numbers are analogous to physical quantities. Compare this withdigital which means that operation is made with numbers and is represented by numbers.
Note also the letters A, B, C, D, E and F. These will be given as a legend on ILDs for Spec200. They identify each function of the card in the rack area. See Figure 69. A, B and C tellus the Tag Numbers of the respective loops. 'D' tells us the function of the card. For examplein Figure 68 one card is an analog input card and the other is a recorder distribution card. 'E'tells us the location of the card. For example, 4-5-3 means that the card is in rack 4, nest 5and is card 3. 'F' tells us how to identify the card in a nest unit. For example, 2AI-13V willbe printed on the card near the bottom.

Handout No. 8 (Drawing No. 490-J-NB-67483) shows a Spec 200 loop ILD. It is for a levelcontrol loop L-360 at Ras Tanura Refinery.
Figure 70 shows part of the ILD.
The variable being measured is the level in vessel 4900 - 14. The ILD shows (inside thevessel) the high level alarm (HLA) is 3 feet and the low level alarm (LLA) is 1 foot 8 inches.The level transmitter (LT-360) senses the level in the vessel. The ILD shows that thetransmitter output is a pneumatic signal. The signal will vary between 3 and 15 psi. The levelmeasurement is indicated on a locally mounted indicator, LI-360. The same pneumatic signalthat indicates the level value is sent to a transducer, LTd-360A, Model E11GM. The ILDshows that LTd - 360A converts the pressure signals to Milliamp signals (i.e., 3 - 15 psipneumatic signals are converted to 4 - 20mA signals).

Tracing the two output wires from LTd - 360A shows that they are connected to terminals +2and -2 on card 2AI - I3V. This card has two inputs and two outputs. The card model numberindicates that the card is not isolated electrically.
The 4-20 mA input at terminals 2 is found as an output at terminals +4 and -4 of the card.
Figure 71 shows that one pair of wires goes to a data logging connector (Level Data Logging(LDL-360). This is for a computer connection. The computer receives and records the levelsignal, but it does not control anything in the loop.
Another pair of wires goes to terminals +1 and -1 on the alarm card 2AP - ALM - A. Theterminals are jumped to terminals +3 and -3. This gives a single input to both alarm circuits(+3B is LS-360 (H); -3 is LS-360 (L) .)
One alarm circuit responds to a high level. The other responds to a low level. As long as theprocess level remains between the high and low set points, no alarm will be given.

Electronic Auxiliary Units. Electronic auxiliary components are used for performing monitoringand computing functions. The components are printed circuit cards mounted in a single-cardfile. The cards provide such functions as:
° alarm switches° square root extraction° millivolt to current conversion (mV/I)° resistance to current conversion (Ω/Ι)
Saudi Aramco uses single-card files (cases) to house auxiliary cards. The cases are mountedbehind the control panel or in a rack. Figure 76 shows a file case.
Input signals are transmitted to the card circuit through a flat flexible circuit and card-edgeselector.
Note that the case has a 16-point terminal block for connecting signal wiring.
The card receives the input signal and then performs the function for which it was set (i.e.square root extraction, mV to I conversion, etc.). The output signals are transmitted backthrough the edge connector and flexible circuit to the terminal block. Wires transmit thesignals to the control instruments in the field and control room.

Accessory Equipment. The Vutronik system includes accessories such as power supplies,Zenner barriers and standby control modules.
The power supplies provide the voltages for operating Vutronik devices. A Zenner barrier isa connection device that keeps loop current below an unsafe limit. It limits current surges andprevents sparking due to short circuits. Standby control modules can be plugged into a loopto allow a Vutronik controller to be removed without upsetting the process.
Field Equipment. Field equipment used on the Vutronik system include:
° Flow measurement instruments° Pressure measurement instruments° Level measurement instruments° Transducers° Valve positioners° Control valves.
Vultronik transmitters use a 4 to 20mA current loop. Other devices in the system use 1 to5vdc. Therefore, the current signal being used by the transmitters must be converted to avoltage signal.

Note the following from Figure 79: Current flows:
° from terminal 1 to the transmitter° from the transmitter to terminal 2° from terminal 2 across the jumper lead to terminal 3° through the 250 ohm resistor to terminal 4, the signal common.
Remember that Vutronik transmitters operate with 4 - 20mA. If a 4-mA current signal isreceived from the transmitter, then Ohm's Law says that the voltage drop across the 250-ohmresistor is 1 volt, since V = IR = 0.004 x 250 = 1 V.
If a 20-mA current signal is received from the transmitter, then from 0.020 x 250, there is a 5-v drop across the 250-ohm resistor.
4 - 20 mA is the range of current flow through the transmitter. This is proportional to a 1-5 vsignal at the signal common.
Figure 82 shows a Vutronik system for level control loop 3010. The system is operating alevel recorder, a level indicating controller and an alarm.
Note the symbol [-||-] that is used to denote a switch card.
As an example, we will trace the signal that operates the level recorder, LR - 3010.
A 25 - vdc power supply producing 4 - 20 mA is connected to terminal 1 on TPAI-2. Thissupply is not shown on the ILDs. (Remember that other connections, such as the internalconnections between all terminal 4 and the return connections from instruments to terminals 4are also not shown on ILDs.)
A wire connects terminal 1 on TPAI-2 to the positive side of the transmitter, LT-3010. Theconnection is made through CA-41 and FA-1 on the BACK AUXILIARY RACK, RK-D28-3001-1. From FA-1 the wire goes to TB-E-3007 in the junction box, terminal 1. The wire isshielded and is earthed at terminal 3.

The Honeywell Vutronik Control Loop(Cont'd)
Tracing Signals (Cont'd). From TB-E-3007 the current goes to the positive side of thetransmitter. The transmitter acts like a variable resistor: the resistance depends on the processvariable measurement it is receiving. Therefore, the current that passes through thetransmitter depends on the process variable measurement.
The current flows from the negative terminal of the transmitter, through TB-E-3007 terminal2, FA terminal 2, CA terminal 42 and to TPAI-3 terminal 2.
Terminal 2 on TPAI-3 is wired to terminal 2 on TPAI-2. This terminal is jumped to terminal3. Terminal 3 is connected by a 250-ohm resistor to terminal 4. The voltage drop across theresistor will be between 1 and 5 volts, depending on the value of the current which theprocess variable has allowed to flow through the system. But, remember, terminals number 4are connected together, internally, even though this is not shown on the ILD. Therefore, thevoltage across terminals 2 and 4 in TPAI-2 and TPAI-3 is 1-5 v, as shown in Figure 83.

Suppose a connection is made between terminal 2 on TPAI-3 and the input of the recorder,and then from the output of the recorder to terminal 4 on TPAI-3. The voltage across therecorder terminals will be between 1 and 5 vdc, proportional to the value of the processvariable. Hence the voltage operating the recorder will be in accordance with the value of theprocess variable.
The connections between the terminal blocks and the instruments are made by wires orcables. These connections are not shown on ILDs. The same wires or cables connect theinstruments to terminal 4, the signal common, in order to complete the circuit.
The ILD shows that the output signals from the level indicating controller come fromterminals 5 and 6 on TPAI-2. These are the standard terminals used on Honeywell TPAs foroutput signals. (Remember that the output signals of a controller are proportional to the inputsignals it receives from the transmitter. In this case the input signals will be between 1 - 5 Vdc and the output signals will be between 4 - 20 mA DC.)
The wire from terminal 5 goes to transducer LTd-3010. The current signal is converted to apneumatic signal to open or close control valve LCV-3010. The negative terminal of thetransducer is connected to terminal 6 of TAPAI-2. This terminal is connected to the negativeterminal of the controller and so completes the circuit.
The schematic in Figure 84 shows the circuits we have been discussing.

Each input has two outputs. Each output is a set of relay contacts. They act as the switch partof the alarm card. Figure 86 shows how a relay operates.
A relay is an electrically-operated switch. Figure 86 shows a relay that is normally open. Aspring keeps the relay contacts apart. When current flows through the coil the soft iron corebecomes a magnet. The magnetic force pulls the armature down and the contacts close.
When the current stops flowing through the coil, the spring pulls the contacts apart. Nowreturn again to the dual alarm system (Figure 85.) When the input voltage signal goes beyonda preset limit, the relays will operate. They will activate an alarm in the control room.

Figure 85 showed that the card provides two separate alarms for each input signal. Thus, forexample, both a high and low alarm can be set for the input from a level transmitter.
Handout No. 9 (Drawing No. U54-J-XB-B19079) shows an ILD for level control loop L-020.The alarm card is located on the auxiliary rack RX-454-1. The card is a level switch LS-020A and B.
The card receives two 1 to 5 vdc signals from terminals 2 and 7 on TPAI-7. They areconnected to terminals 3 and 5 on the alarm card. The mark number of input 1 is LS-020A.Its alarm settings are 2.1 volts high/1.0 volt low. These are alarms 1A and 1B respectively.
Input 2 has a mark number of L-020B. It uses only one alarm setting, which is 3.0 v high.This is alarm 2A.
Tracing the connections from the alarms back to the switch card shows that the alarm outputterminals for these three alarms are:
Output for Alarm 1A - Terminals 2 and 6Output for Alarm 1B - Terminals 7 and 8Output for Alarm 2A - Terminals 10 and 11
These connections are made through terminal strips TBC and TBA.

Note that alarm circuits 1B is not a complete circuit on the ILD. This is because alarm 1B isalso connected to TBA-78, which is seen to be shown on drawing number XB-B-19078 sheetB. (A study of this drawing shows that alarm 1B is part of the ESD system.)
The ILDs will not always show the inputs and outputs on an alarm card. When they are notshown, you must refer to the vendor manual. This gives the inputs and outputs of all thealarms.
Note the bracket around terminals 14, 15 and 16. This means that the terminals act as a singleunit case only.
A study of the ILD for loop 020 shows that when the level transmitter LT-020 senses a lowlevel in U54-D-052 the light in window panel 1-43 on the control room panel will come on.When the level is high the light in window 1-37 will come on. (Note that terminals 82 and 83on TBA are jumped together to form a complete circuit.)
Summary
Alarm cards can be used to monitor any process variable. The mA output from anytransmitter is converted to 1 to 5 vdc and used to operate the cards. The cards can monitortwo different variables at the same time. Both input signals are independent of each other.
Each set of output contacts on the card can be set at high or low alarms.

Examples of Honeywell Cards
Honeywell mV/I Converter Card. The Honeywell mV/I converter card is mounted in asingle card file. The card has two separate converter circuits. It can be used in two differentloops at the same time. Each output is 4-20 mA.
Figure 87 shows an ILD for a temperature control loop.
A thermocouple (Type J) measures temperature in the field. The thermocouple developsmillivolt signals, the values of which depend on the temperature measurement. Wires carrythe mV input signal to input number 1 on the mV/I converter card, TY-304. Note that theinput terminals are on the card, not on the card file terminal strip. The ILD shows that theconverter is in the auxiliary rack in the control room.
The card converts the mV signal to a 4-20 mA signal. The output of TY-304 is shown to beat terminal 12. The 250-ohm resistor on TB 1 converts the mA output signal to 1-5 vdc.
Remember that the power supply and some connections are not shown on ILDs. Theseinclude the internal connections that link all terminals number 4 together, and the wire orcable connections that take the 1-5 vdc signal to the control instruments.
The 1-5 vdc signal goes to TR-304 (Recorder). The same voltage also exists across terminals3 and 4 on TB 2. From these the voltage is sent to TI-304 (Indicator).

Honeywell Resistance to Current Converter Card
Figure 88 shows a temperature control loop in which a Resistance Temperature Detector(RTD) is used to measure temperature. The RTD is a variable resistor. Its resistance changesaccording to changes in temperature.
TY-305 converts the resistance signal to a 4-20 mA signal. The 250 ohm resistor on TB 7causes a voltage drop of 1-5 vdc. This voltage is used by TR-305 and TI-305.

GLOSSARY
Derivative The name given to the control procedure that is concernedwith
(or Rate Action): how quickly a process variable (usually temperature) is changingits value.
Offset: The difference between the actual value of a process variableand its set point value.
Proportional band: The ration, as a percentage, of the deviation of a processvariable from set point divided by the amount of control valvestem movement the deviation causes.
Reset (or gain): The name given to the control procedure which is designed tobring a process variable back to its set point.
