The reader would typically be involved in the design, implementation and upgrading of industrial control systems. Mathematical theory has been kept to a minimum with the emphasis throughout on practical applications and useful information. This book will enable the reader to: * Specify and design the loop requirements for a plant using PID control * Identify and apply the essential building blocks in automatic control * Apply the procedures for open and closed loop tuning * Tune control loops with significant dead-times * Demonstrate a clear understanding of analog process control and how to tune analog loops * Explain concepts used by major manufacturers who use the most up-to-date technology in the process control field A practical focus on the optimization of process and plant Readers develop professional competencies, not just theoretical knowledge Reduce dead-time with loop tuning techniques. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Process control.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85107135 650 0 Production engineering.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85107212 650 7 Process control.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1078020 650 7 Production engineering.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1078282 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Macdonald, Dave,|d1942-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2004072991 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAltmann, Wolfgang.|tPractical process control for engineers and technicians.|dOxford : Newnes, 2005|z0750664002|w(OCoLC)56463852 830 0 Practical professional books from Elsevier.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2003107312 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=130230|zOnline eBook.
