Instrumentation and Process
Control,
7E
7th Edition
By: Franklyn W. Kirk, Thomas A. Weedon, Philip Kirk
Instrumentation
and Process Control is a comprehensive resource that provides a
technician-level approach to instrumentation used in process
control.
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.
Emphasis is placed on the fundamental
scientific principles that underlie instrument operation.
Applications are thoroughly illustrated, and informative tech facts
and illustrative vignettes provide supplemental content throughout
the book.
Features:
- Technician-level
approach to the field of instrumentation
- Addresses instruments,
digital communications, controls, design analyses, and
applications
- 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
Contents include:
