Instrumentation and Process Control

This program begins by describing the safe operation and maintenance of sensors, transducers, controllers, final control elements, and other devices used in process control. It explains the principles and practices governing many kinds of devices used to control pressure, temperature, flow, and level. It also describes the proper use of analytical instrumentation and devices that measure and control force, weight, and motion.
