More DescriptionInstrumentation and Process Control is a comprehensive resource that provides a technician-level approach to instrumentation used in process control. With an emphasis on common industrial applications, this textbook covers the four fundamental instrumentation measurements of temperature, pressure, level, and flow, in addition to position, humidity, moisture, and typical liquid and gas measuring instruments. Fundamental scientific principles, detailed illustrations, descriptive photographs, and concise text are used to present the following instrumentation topics:Process control and factory automation measurement instruments and applicationsControl valves and other final elementsDigital communication systems and controllersOverview of control strategies for process controlSafety systems and installation in hazardous locationsSystems approach to integration of instruments in process control
