Analytical Instrumentation is a treatment of process analytical technology by a distinguished group of experts, documenting over 50 years of process analyzer development, from its origins in the research laboratory at Ludwigshafen, DE, in the late 1930s to its current, dynamic worldwide status in the early 1990s.
Designed for field analyzer technicians, newly graduated engineers-in-training and experienced manufacturer's application personnel, this book offers both theory and real-world experience, including:
- Drawings of sample systems that work and comments on ones that don't
- Justifications and organization guidelines on process analyzer systems
- Discussions on implementation issues, including justification, purchasing, training and validation
- Descriptions of specific analyzer types and the fundamentals of application for a variety of situations
