Interlock / logic diamond P&ID symbol

Interlock / logic diamond

ISA 5.1-2009 (binary logic)
Drawn as
A diamond with "I" (or an interlock number) inside, with signal lines in and out.
Meaning
Interlock or logic function, defined on the logic diagrams or the cause & effect chart: e.g. LAHH trips a pump and closes an ESDV. Not physical; use it to understand the shutdowns.
Variants
  • The number inside refers to the logic or C&E sheet
  • ISA logic gates (AND/OR) may be drawn as boxes on the P&ID
  • SIS trips are often a diamond with "S" or "SIS"

Not physical hardware. Read it, then skip it in the 3D model.
