What does International Society of Automation (ISA) stand for?
International Society of Automation (formerly Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society)
What is ISA’s expertise?
The International Society for Automation (ISA) writes standards to streamline processes for automation professionals and improve industry safety, efficiency, and profitability. These standards govern symbols and naming, security, and communication. One of the most widely used forms is the ISA “TR20.00.01 Forms” collection, which contains the industry-recognized ISA-TR20.00.01 instrumentation specification forms.
What is the International Society of Automation (ISA)?
A nonprofit technical society for engineers, business people, educators, and students who work, study, or are interested in industrial automation and related work such as instrumentation. Founded in 1945, the society was originally known as the Instrument Society of America.
The society is more commonly known by its abbreviation ISA, and its scope now includes many technical and engineering disciplines. ISA is one of the world’s leading professional organizations for setting automation standards and educating industry professionals.
Instrumentation and automation are some of the fundamental technologies involved in almost all industrialized production. Modern industrial production is a complex interaction of many systems. Instrumentation provides regulation for these complex systems using many different measuring and control devices. Automation provides programmable devices that allow greater flexibility in operating these complex production systems.
ISA provides leadership and education to the professions it serves, helping engineers, technicians, research scientists, and many others adapt to a rapidly changing industry. ISA publications are used by automation professionals worldwide. They work in a wide range of industries – building, operating, and maintaining processes that do everything from monitoring air quality to manufacturing aircraft.
