ISA106 Summary

ISA106 is a standard that addresses the procedural automation of continuous process operations. It is based on the ISA88 standard for batch process control, and it provides a framework for the development and implementation of procedures for continuous process operations.

The ISA106 standard defines a number of terms and concepts, such as:

  • Procedure: A set of instructions that are used to control a continuous process operation.
  • Process step: A unit of work that is performed in a continuous process operation.
  • Equipment: The hardware that is used in a continuous process operation.
  • Control system: The software that is used to control a continuous process operation.

The ISA106 standard also defines a number of procedures, such as:

  • Startup procedure: A procedure that is used to start a continuous process operation.
  • Shutdown procedure: A procedure that is used to shut down a continuous process operation.
  • Grade change procedure: A procedure that is used to change the grade of a product that is being produced in a continuous process operation.

The ISA 106 standard provides a framework for the development and implementation of procedures for continuous process operations. The standard defines a number of terms and concepts, and it also defines a number of procedures. The standard can be used by manufacturers and automation suppliers to develop and implement procedures for continuous process operations.
