About
The
word automation has become a familiar phrase
to the average Indian. In the process industries,
the somewhat synonymous term instrumentation
is no less familiar. It is ironic that in a
day of automation (or Instrumentation) there
still exists a partial void in efforts to train
people engaged in a field that involves both
art and science. Formal education in the field
has been nil; practitioners have come from other
disciplines, primarily electrical, mechanical,
and chemical. The training offered to those
entering the profession has come through formal
and informal communication within the small
but closely-knit group. Trainees are often
bewildered
by the slow rate at which they grasp the entire
field and achieve the level of competence and
confidence of a professional.
