ISA announces the release of the new book 'Fundamentals of Test Measurement Instrumentation' by Keith Cheatle.

This new book is written for those who want to design test measurement systems; select appropriate equipment; understand system component characteristics, system and component calibration, and operating principles of transducers; determine overall system accuracy; and formulate basic test procedure design.

Targeting engineers, technicians, manufacturers, and students, the book discusses the specialised test instrumentation used in R and D laboratories, testing organisations, and industrial maintenance departments.

It focuses on the practical application of test instrumentation and emphasises the importance of creating a "measurement system" that involves components, installation, wiring, and calibration.

The design, application and calibration of systems for measuring pressure, temperature, flow, force, displacement, and vibration are also covered.

Emphasis is placed on the calibration of test instrumentation, including detailed information about calibration equipment, methods, and records.
