| Safety Shutdown Systems: Design, Analysis and Justification |
| by Paul Gruhn and Harry Cheddie, 239pp, 1998, hardcover, ISBN: 1556176651 |
 |
This book is ideal for instrumentation and control
system engineers in the process industries who are
responsible for designing, installing, and maintaining
safety shutdown systems.
Managers,
sales professionals, technicians, and engineers
employed by end users, engineering firms, system
integrators, and consultants can all benefit from the
material presented here. |
|
| The authors wrote this book because of the increased realization that today's engineering systems- and the computers used to control them- are capable of large-scale destruction. When even a single accident could be disastrous, the luxury of learning from experience no longer exists. The book is practical how-to text on the analysis, design, application and installation of safety shutdown systems. |
