Johnson, Curtis D., 1939-
Process control instrumentation technology / Curtis D. Johnson. - Pearson new international edition. Eight edition. - ii, 680 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm
Previous edition: Upper Saddle River: Pearson/Prentice Hall, 2006.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction to Process Control -- Analog Signal Conditioning -- Digital Signal Conditioning -- Thermal Sensors -- Mechanical Sensors -- Optical Sensors -- Final Control -- Discrete-State Process Control -- Controller Principles -- Analog Controllers -- Computer-Based Control -- Control LoopCharacteristics. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
"This text is designed to provide students with an understanding and appreciation of some of the essential concepts behind control system elements and operations, without the need of advanced math and theory. It also presents some of the practical details of how elements of a control system are designed and operated, such as would be gained from on-the-job experience. This edition includes treatment of modern fieldbus approaches to networked and distributed control systems. This middle ground of knowledge enables students to design the elements of a control system from a practical, working perspective, and comprehend how these elements affect overall system operation and tuning."--Publisher's website.
