Instrumentation and control made easy - Maintenance of control components on ships Vol 3

This pocket book is based on an extract from the 5th Edition of the book titled Marine Control Technology. It deals with understanding the maintenance and calibration of sensors and transducers.

The Pocket Book Series was introduced based on the fact that there is a changing trend in the way books are read today. The new normal is that readers and students prefer to read specific, and not so voluminous content, in the least time, as time comes at a premium these days.
