Abstract
Industrial instrumentation has long suffered from the bewildering number of units used in industry to measure process parameters. There are very few instrument engineers who have not, some time or another, made a mistake in converting units and consequently ordered equipment of the wrong size or incorrect range. The cost to industry in time and money is considerable. This paper provides an insight into SI units for coherent specification of requirements.
