Purchase options and add-ons

Nearly all industrial processes require objects to be moved, manipulated or subjected to some sort of force. Such movements and manipulations are frequently accomplished by means of devices driven by liquids (hydraulics) or air (pneumatics), the subject of this book. Hydraulics and Pneumatics is written by a practicing process control engineer as a guide to the successful operation of hydraulic and pneumatic systems for all engineers and technicians working with them. Keeping mathematics and theory to a minimum, this practical guide is thorough but accessible to technicians without an advanced engineering background, and offers clear, complete coverage of the latest pumps, valves and other hydraulic and pneumatic equipment Designed to serve as an introduction to those who are training and a day-to-day reference for use on the job, the book also offers an essential section on industrial safety and compliance with regulation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Introduction
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 December 2015

    Actually this is the second time I've bought this book. I stupidly loaned it out and then never got it back. This time I bought it for my Kindle and tablet so one way or another I've got it.

    What it's not. Slap bang up to date Biblical sized technical tome.

    What it is. A great general purpose introduction and reference book to give you a reasonable knowledge of hydraulic systems. If you have already got this knowledge and regularly work on hydraulics then there is a good chance you know everything in this book. If like me as a marine engineer you deal with hydraulics but not every day, then you need something to refer to now and again. This for me serves that purpose at a modest price. There are far more comprehensive books out there which are eye wateringly expensive and not in electronic format making them no suitable for travelling with.

    This for me allows me to refresh my brain when I have to read a drawing and fault find and it's easy, simple and ideal for that purpose.

    I've had this since 2012 when I first graduated technical school and started working in industrial maintenance. It quickly got me up to speed and troubleshooting systems better than 95% of the technicians out there. Well written and good information.
