What is Field Instrumentation?

Field instrumentation refers to the devices used to measure, monitor, and control physical parameters in industrial processes or in the field. These parameters include temperature, pressure, flow, level, pH, conductivity, and many others. Field instruments provide critical data for process control, automation, and safety systems, allowing operators to optimize performance, ensure quality, and prevent equipment failures. They are commonly used in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, and manufacturing.
