This approach ensures that knowledge is presented progressively and deeply. The book is divided into three main parts: the first part introduces the fundamentals of automation systems, giving readers a holistic understanding of automation systems and clarifying their basic functions and structural principles. The second part covers the main instruments and automation devices used in chemical production, including detection instruments, control instruments, and actuators. The third part focuses on the specific applications of automation systems in industrial production. The book emphasizes a competency-based and application-oriented approach, focusing on practicality and appropriately reducing theoretical complexity to make it accessible for beginners. The language is clear, concise, and easy to understand, making complex concepts simple and approachable. By combining real-world factory applications with everyday examples, the book enhances readers' interest in automation and makes learning enjoyable for beginners. This book is suitable for entry-level automation professionals and can also serve as learning material for non-automation professionals in industries such as chemical, light industry, and thermal power.
