Nearly all industrial
processes require objects to be moved, manipulated or subjected to some
sort of force. This is frequently accomplished by means of electrical
equipment (such as motors or solenoids), or via devices driven by air
(pneumatics) or liquids (hydraulics).
This book has been
written by a process control engineer as a guide to the operation of
hydraulic and pneumatic systems for all engineers and technicians who
wish to have an insight into the components and operation of such a
system.
This second edition has been fully updated to
include
all recent developments such as the increasing use of proportional
valves, and includes an extra expanded section on industrial safety. It
will prove indispensable to all those wishing to learn about hydraulics
and pneumatics.
It gives more essential, but simple math on
pipe
flow and pressure drops offers the latest information on proportional
valves and the electronics cards now appearing in hydraulic
systems includes a new section on safety including European legislation
