Synopsis

For nearly thirty years, the Instrument Engineers' Handbook has been the most widely-used reference in its field. Changes in the profession since 1981 necessitate these updated editions, which include new sections covering the developments of the last decade and a new international perspective (the books have not been available before outside of the USA). The two volumes cover all the topics process control and instrument engineers use in their everyday work.
The two volumes comprise nearly 3000 pages, with thousands of illustrations. Completely revised for the first time since the early 80s, they cover all the latest advances in control hardware, transmitters, displays, DCS, PLC and computer systems. The books provide the tools needed to make sophisticated equipment selection and solve operating problems quickly. There are sections devoted to 500 major topics. There are over 100 new contributors (900 rejected). The Instrument Engineers' Handbook takes a practical and down-to-earth approach and covers all the topics used by process control and instrument engineers in their everyday work, providing quick access to specific information.

About this title

Review:

'Whether used as a text book by inexperienced engineers, or as a quick reference book for the experienced engineer - this book looks set to continue to be the main reference for the instrument engineer for the next decade - and at a realistic price which is better value today.'
