Industrial
Motor Control
Fifth Edition
Stephen L. Herman
A comprehensive and reader-friendly text,
Industrial Motor Control, 5E contains crucial, up-to-date
information on basic relay control systems, programmable logic
controllers, and solid state devices commonly found in an industrial
setting.
It presents easy-to-follow instructions and
the essential information for controlling industrial motors, along
with commonly used devices in contemporary industrial settings.
Coverage is comprehensive in scope,
successfully bridging the gap between industrial maintenance and
instrumentation.
Readers will gain a fundamental understanding
of the operation of variable frequency drives, solid state relays,
and other applications that employ electronic devices.
Features:
- a new unit on reading large schematic
diagrams helps readers master this vital step in troubleshooting
an existing control system
- short units of instruction allow readers to
completely digest and absorb one topic before proceeding to the
next
- new photos demonstrate more
state-of-the-art equipment, while updated diagrams and
illustrations help readers quickly identify components as well as
understand how they relate to one another
- many circuits are explained with
step-by-step sequences that help readers learn the concepts and
applications of control logic
