Opis

The book provides a practical and applied way of measuring instruments for flow, pressure, level, and temperature. Such instruments are used to control processes in manufacturing industries for food, beverages, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, oil, water and waste water, power, etc. With higher prices for raw materials and more severe requirements for safety and environmental issues, there is a growing demand to measure with high precision. Learning these methods, working principles, terminology, concepts, and standards, will enable the reader to avoid errors and common faults. The book will help any process industry to reduce the risk of high costs and damage to both people and equipment.
