Calibrate, troubleshoot, and keep plants running
Instrumentation technicians install, calibrate, maintain, and troubleshoot the sensors, controllers, and control systems that monitor and regulate industrial processes in plants and facilities.
You start with a morning meeting to review the day's work orders, then head to the field to calibrate a pressure transmitter. After lunch, you troubleshoot a faulty control loop and replace a temperature sensor before documenting everything for the maintenance records.
