Bela Liptak's acclaimed "bible" of instrument engineering now enters its fourth edition with fully globalized coverage, an outstanding panel of international contributors, and major additional coverage that reflects the advances made over the last decade since publication of the third edition. Expanded coverage includes descriptions of overseas manufacturer's products and concepts, model-based optimization in control theory, new major inventions and innovations in control valves, and a full chapter devoted to safety. The book also covers the transmitters, controllers, valves, regulators, actuators, dampers, and other drives that have been introduced since the previous edition.
