China's instrumentation industry development planning and market analysis

Instruments and meters are instruments or devices used to detect, measure, observe, and calculate various physical quantities, material compositions, and physical properties. Including maintenance instrument, resistance meter, analyzer, tester, calibrator and so on. Broadly speaking, instruments and meters can also have functions such as automatic control, alarm, signal transmission and data processing. For example, pneumatic control instruments used in automatic control of industrial production processes, and electric adjustment instruments, and distributed instrument control systems also belong to Instrumentation.

Although China's microcomputer relay protection industry started late, it has developed rapidly in the past 20 years, especially in the 12th Five-Year Plan period. At present, China has initially formed a relatively complete microcomputer relay protection tester production, research and marketing system. .

Experts predict that the market prospects of China's instrumentation industry from now to the twelfth five-year period can be analyzed from the following aspects:

Environmental instrumentation Environmental instrumentation is mainly used in environmental quality monitoring and pollution source monitoring. For the specific national conditions of our country, environmental protection mainly solves two strategic and overall ecological environmental pollution problems in China's water environment and atmospheric environment. With energy saving, emission reduction and low-carbon economy, China has become a long-term national policy. The environmental monitoring instrumentation, sampling system, and environmental monitoring automation control system products for the atmosphere and water environment have potential market scale of several billion yuan to several hundred billion yuan.

The Microcomputer Relay Protection Tester proposed in the State Grid Corporation of China that we must vigorously promote the principle of coordinated development of the UHV power grid as a leader, coordinated development of all levels of power grids, and the improvement of the smart grid. It is also clear that the power user information collection system construction is a smart grid in China. After an important part of the construction, smart grid construction has gradually developed. The grid construction is a global behavior, a long-term and gradual rigid market, and a major development opportunity for the microcomputer relay protection tester. At the same time, India's electric power industry has developed rapidly and has a large population. The demand for electric energy meters is relatively large.

Industrial Automation Instrumentation Industrial automation instrumentation focuses on the development of main control system devices based on fieldbus technology, as well as intelligent instrumentation, special and special automation instruments. From the market demand, the demand for China's industrial automation market is growing. According to the forecast of China Instrument and Meter Association, by the end of the twelfth five-year period, the demand for industrial automation will double. On the other hand, with the growing domestic economic environment and the country’s gradual emphasis on the power industry infrastructure, these signals also set new requirements and market demands for instrumentation.

The pace of development of the instrumentation industry has not been driven by the financial turmoil that has slowed down the instrumentation industry for eight consecutive years. Although the global economy is currently affected by the financial turmoil, Dongpu has slowed down in various industries. However, from the current situation, the growth rate of the instrument industry has not slowed down.

Dong Jingchen, deputy secretary-general of the China Instrument and Meter Industry Association, pointed out: There are two main reasons. First, the country's economy is still operating at a high level. According to past experience, if the GDP growth is above 15%, the growth rate of the instrument industry will be 26%. Between 30% and 30%. Second, there is a lag period in the impact of the national macro-control on the instrument industry. Meters are often delivered late in the project. Therefore, the investment that is reduced due to macro-control policies will not have much impact on the instrument industry this year.

Foreign instrumentation companies began to change their investment methods, which were originally based on sole proprietorship. This change is mainly reflected in two aspects. First, it has begun to focus on acquisitions and mergers and acquisitions of outstanding domestic production companies. Second, the proportion of commissioned production has continued to rise. It is not easy for foreign companies to acquire outstanding domestic companies. At present, the government’s support for the instrumentation and metering industry is increasing, and more and more of them have been invested. This has enabled domestic excellent instrument manufacturers to have more room for development.

The stability reliability problem has become a barrier to the development of China's instruments and meters. The reliability and stability of domestic instrumentation and automation systems are very different from those of foreign products. Its reliability issues have shaken the confidence of key industries such as metallurgy, electric power, and petrochemical industries in domestic products. As a result, localization of instrumentation and automation systems has been the slowest in the nationalization of major national technical equipment. Greatly affected the improvement of equipment manufacturing technology and product quality. Stability and reliability issues have become a serious obstacle to the development of China's instrumentation industry and technological innovation.

Reliability work is a comprehensive job. From the system point of view, the reliability work needs to eliminate and control all kinds of unreliable factors to the maximum extent possible in the entire product life cycle, and maximize the detection of unreliable factors. Defects, in order to achieve the most cost-saving, the most time-saving operation of the established reliability goals. It involves aspects such as product performance effectiveness, functional safety, service life, maintainability, environmental adaptability, and the full life cycle cost of the product. Reliability work requires systematic theoretical research, long-term data accumulation, careful experimental argumentation, and extensive investigation and analysis.
