Synopsis:

Instrumentation and Process Control is a technician-level approach to instrumentation and control techniques used in advanced manufacturing. The book is divided into two parts: Part 1, Instrumentation (Chapters 1 to 28) and Part 2, Process Control (Chapters 29 to 52). The content is organized in a logical sequence beginning with an introduction to the field of instrumentation and continuing through all the elements of a control system.

This edition offers the following instructional advantages:

Systems approach to integrating instruments into a complex system

Comprehensive applications for instruments and controllers in typical industrial control systems

Examples that show how to install instruments and protect them from damaging environmental conditions
