The revised third edition of this best-seller now comes with a “carry-in-the-toolbox” aid designed specifically for those who tune controllers as part of their day-to-day tasks. This compact aid provides easy access to the parameters and calculations needed to tune feedback controllers and covers topics such as improving as-found tuning and making corrections for dead time and non-cascade control. Another valuable tool—Derivation of Equations in Tables 6-8 through 6-12, the bonus material on this page—has also been updated and expanded.

This intermediate-level book explains the application of basic and advanced regulatory control strategies for the wet process industries. Rather than mathematical systems theory, the book builds upon the engineer’s or technician's own experience and knowledge of processes to demonstrate the application of successful control strategies.
