How to Read a P&ID - Pressure Control

This P&ID illustrates a pressure control loop for a Hot Water Storage vessel (V-100). Pressure is controlled via a split-range controller (PIC-101) which regulates nitrogen supply (PY-101A) and pressure venting (PY-101B). Temperature is maintained via a heat pad controlled by TIC-102, and level is monitored by level transmitter LT-100 and level gauge LG-2.
