What does an Instrumentation Engineer do?
An instrumentation engineer designs and develops control systems, maintains existing systems and can manage the system as well. He or she collaborates with design engineers, and deliver detailed instrumentation design. A instrumentation engineer reviews instrument specifications, layouts and data sheets. You will find instrumentation engineers in almost all process and manufacturing industry, like steel, petrochemical, oil, power and defiance production. Automation is very important, like productivity, optimization, safety, reliability, stability and continuity. An instrumentation engineer is responsible for integrating sensors with control systems, displays, transmitters and recorders. Maybe there is a need to design a new of specify installation.
What is Instrumentation?
Instrumentation is how measuring instruments are used, to control and monitor a process. This way a process within a laboratory, manufacturing area or production can be controlled and measured. With a measuring instrument physical quantities such as level, angle, pressure, density, voltage, chemical composition, frequency, capacitance, temperature, distance and flow are measured. An instrument can be simple, but also a very complex multi-variable process analyzer. The discipline has its origin in electrical and electronics engineering and covers electronics, electrical, mechanical, computing streams and chemical. In other words: measurement, control processes and automation.
What is Instrumentation engineering?
Instrumentation engineering is the specialization focused on the principle and operation of instruments used for measuring, like the ones used in the design and configuration of automated systems in domains like electrical, mechanical and chemical. An instrumentation engineer works with automated processes on – for example – chemical of manufacturing plants, in order to improve the system’s productivity, optimization, safety etc., like we mentioned before. Instrumentation engineering is a broad definement, because you can probably understand rocket instrumentation is very different from biochemical instrumentation of laboratory rats
