P&ID extraction for ABB 800xA projects.
800xA installations sit across sectors that draw their P&IDs differently. Pulp, mining, offshore, power, oil and gas. The constant across them is the engineering load to produce a clean I/O list, a defensible instrument index, and a line list piping will sign off on.
What Tagsight produces.
- I/O list with signal classification suitable for the IO subsystem allocation step
- Instrument index covering field instruments, valves, and on-skid items
- Equipment list keyed to mills, kilns, vessels, columns, exchangers, and pumps depending on industry
- Line list with service classification and pipe spec breaks
- Revision comparison reports for project-stage and turnaround documentation
- Marshalling and I/O-card count estimated from the I/O list
Integration notes.
- Excel, CSV, and JSON outputs are consumed by the engineering database the project keeps, frequently SmartPlant Instrumentation or an in-house variant
- Tag conventions are preserved as drawn, which matters on 800xA mill projects where house standards rarely match generic ISA letter codes
- Off-page connector matching ties cross-unit signals across drawing sets, useful on integrated mill or refinery projects
- Equipment-list output is structured to feed mechanical-completion checklists and commissioning trackers
Example tags.
| Tag | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 10LAC01CT001 | KKS-style tag. Unit 10, function LAC, equipment 01, measurement CT, item 001 |
| FT-3201 | Flow transmitter, unit 32, loop 01 |
| TI-MILL-1420 | Temperature indicator on a mill drive bearing |
| LIC-K-7301 | Level indicating controller on a kiln feed bin |
| PSV-1102 | Pressure safety valve |
Common questions
Are KKS tag conventions handled.
Yes. KKS is one of the dialect cases the extraction explicitly supports. The original KKS string is preserved verbatim and signal class is inferred from the function group code rather than from ISA letter codes that do not apply.
Do you integrate with the ABB engineering tools.
No, and Tagsight is not partnered with ABB. The output is vendor-neutral data the engineering team imports into whichever database of record they already use.
Can mining and minerals plant tags be processed.
Yes. Mill, crusher, conveyor, and concentrator drawing sets all extract as input. House conventions for those industries differ from process plants, and the original tag scheme is preserved as drawn.
Is the line list useful when piping uses non-standard spec naming.
Yes. The line list captures the line number string as drawn. Spec breaks, service codes, and metallurgy are extracted when shown on the line callout, in whatever convention the project uses.
