Therefore, <b>industrial instrumentation<\/b>, as well as automation, has become <u>more present every day<\/u> in different areas of industry. By acting on quality control, worker safety and process optimization, it has a <u>direct influence on the efficiency of production processes and the result of the final product<\/u>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">In this article, you will understand <b><u>what Industrial Instrumentation is<\/u><\/b>, why it exists and what are the benefits of using this type of technology in your industrial processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">O que \u00e9 Instrumenta\u00e7\u00e3o Industrial?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Industrial Instrumentation is the science that <u>studies, develops and applies instruments for transmission, recording, control and adjustment of variables<\/u> in order to improve the performance of the most varied processes. According to <b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.isa.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">North American Instrumentation Organization (ISA \u2013 Instrument Society of Automation)<\/a> <\/b>An industrial instrument is understood as any <u>device used to, directly or indirectly, measure and\/or control process variables<\/u>. According to ISA, this category includes devices present at Level 1 of the <b>Automation Pyramid<\/b>, such as sensors, transmitters and positioners, computational devices, electrical alarm devices, keys and pushbuttons, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Each industry has a high number of physical variables that directly impact the performance of its production process. The <b>role of industrial instruments<\/b> is to monitor these variables to provide data that allows the control system to understand the current state of the application. Efficient measurement results in better performance in the production chain, as it allows an industry's production processes to be carried out and, if necessary, adjusted without interruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let's take as an example one of the most famous industrialized products in the world: the Coca-Cola soft drink. You can buy a can of this drink in different regions of the planet and it will have the same flavor, the same percentage of sugar, the same amount of coloring and the same volume in the packaging in all these places. This uniformity is mainly due to the standardization and precision of the instruments involved in manufacturing the product. In any soft drink factory around the world, the preparation temperature, the pressure and level variables in the tanks, the quantity of ingredients and the flow rate in the equipment will always be the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Industrial Instrumentation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">By monitoring in real time the status of equipment that is part of an industry's production processes, instrumentation can <u>perform tests and preventive and\/or corrective maintenance procedures<\/u> of these devices. These constant monitoring routines provide <b>greater security<\/b> for employees, by alerting them to equipment malfunctions, generating <b>savings<\/b> \u2013 reducing expenses with replacing parts and unnecessary replacements \u2013 and, consequently, it allows for <b>more precise and high-quality production<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ao monitorar em tempo real o estado dos equipamentos que fazem parte dos processos de produ\u00e7\u00e3o de uma ind\u00fastria, a instrumenta\u00e7\u00e3o pode <u>realizar testes e procedimentos de manuten\u00e7\u00e3o preventiva e\/ou corretiva<\/u> desses dispositivos. Estas rotinas de monitora\u00e7\u00e3o constante prov\u00eam <b>maior seguran\u00e7a<\/b> para os funcion\u00e1rios, por alertar sobre o mal funcionamento de equipamentos, gera <b>economia<\/b> \u2013 reduzindo gastos com reposi\u00e7\u00e3o de pe\u00e7as e substitui\u00e7\u00f5es desnecess\u00e1rias \u2013 e, consequentemente, permite uma <b>produ\u00e7\u00e3o mais precisa e de alta qualidade<\/b>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Precision and reliability for control and instrumentation is with the Atta Series<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Just like leafcutter ants that use soil vibrations to navigate the steppes and savannas, your business also needs devices with a <u>high level of precision to monitor performance and adjust critical points<\/u> in your production processes.
