Electromechanisms / Transducers (Electromechanical Technology Series)

These materials are intended to provide meaningful experience in basic transducers for students of modern technology. The topics included provide exposure to: basic principles of measurement as well as pressure, temperature, level, rate, photoelectric, and sound transducers. The materials are presented in an action-oriented format combining many of the features normally found in a textbook with those usually associated with a laboratory manual.
