Sands PE, CAP, ISA Fellow Nick Sands is currently a senior manufacturing technology fellow with more than 27 years at DuPont, working in a variety of automation roles at several different businesses and plants. He has helped develop several company standards and best practices in the areas of automation competency, safety instrumented systems, alarm management, and process safety. Sands has been involved with the International Society of Automation (ISA) for more than 25 years, working on standards committees, including ISA18, ISA101, ISA84, and ISA105, as well as training courses, the ISA Certified Automation Professional (CAP) certification, and section and division events. His path to automation started when he earned a BS in Chemical Engineering from Virginia Tech. Ian Verhappen P Eng, CAP, ISA Fellow After receiving a BS in Chemical Engineering with a focus on process control, Ian Verhappen’s career has included stints in all three aspects of the automation industry: end user, supplier, and engineering consultant. Verhappen has been an active ISA volunteer for more than 25 years, learning from and sharing his knowledge with other automation professionals as an author, presenter, international speaker, and volunteer leader. Through a combination of engineering work, standards committee involvement, and a desire for continuous learning, Verhappen has been involved in all facets of the process automation industry from field devices, including process analyzers, to controllers to the communication networks connecting these elements together. A Guide to the Automation Body of Knowledge is a small way to share this continuous learning and 33:35. pass along the expertise gained from all those who have helped develop the body of knowledge used to edit this edition. 33:35. Preface to the Third Edition It has been some years since the second edition was published in 2006. Times have changed. We have changed. Technology has changed. Standards have changed. Some areas of standards changes include; alarm management, human machine interface design, procedural automation, and intelligent device management. Another change, in 2009, we lost the pioneer of A Guide to the Automation Body of Knowledge and the Certified Automation Professional (CAP) program, my friend, Vernon Trevathan. He had a vision of defining automation engineering and developing automation engineers. With the changes in technology, it is clear that the trend of increasing automation will continue into the future. What is not clear, is how to support that trend with capable engineers and technicians. This guide is a step towards a solution. The purpose of this edition is the same as that of the first edition, to provide a broad overview of automation, broader than just instrumentation or process control, to include topics like HAZOP studies, operator training, and operator effectiveness. The chapters are written by experts who share their insights in a few pages. The third edition was quite a project for many reasons. It was eventually successful because of the hard work and dedication of Susan Colwell and Liegh Elrod of the ISA staff, and the unstoppable force of automation that is my co-editor Ian Verhappen. Every chapter has been updated and some new chapters have been added. It is my hope that you find this guide to be a useful quick reference for the topics you know, and an overview for the topics you seek to learn. May you enjoy reading this third edition, and I hope Vernon enjoys it as well. Nicholas P. Sands May 2018 33:43.
