Industries
which use pumps, seals and pipes will almost certainly
also use valves in their systems.
Someone in
each industry needs to be able to design, purchase or
maintain the right valve for the job in hand, and that can
amount to a lot of valves world-wide.
Here is a
single resource which is aimed at those designers and end
users, plus their engineering staff.
Brian Nesbitt is a well-known
consultant with a considerable publishing record. A
lifetime of experience backs up the huge amount of
practical detail found in this volume.
It's international approach is
no accident: it will have world-wide take-up Audience
Users, designers and specifiers of valves in the oil,
petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food, beverage, water,
sewage and process industries.
Maintenance
