N. Pond, ap plication engineer of Taylor In strument Company, Rochester; N. Y. The engineers attended the third annual short course on in- strutttentation for the process in dustries at A&M. | l By use of the “mock*up”, which included basic units isjmilar tjo those in chemical and petroleum plants along Texas’ Gulf Coast, Pond showed how automatic in struments can control temperature, pressure and flow of liquids qr gftfiW. Though basically similar to ther mostats in home hot water heat ers, these temperature controls will automatically keep a liquid within a pipe or retort at a tem perature which never varies So hiueh as one d 0 ? 1 * 1 * 0 either way. By comparison, the household thermo- state has a leeway of ten degrees. The “mock-up”, which was ship ped from Philadelphia to College Station for the course, showed both thdso parts of the automatic con trols that are usually seen on con trol panels, and the parts that afe normally hidden behind metal pan els or even inside retorts' and pipie. The short course was concluded after a display of exhibits and a question-and-answer panel. Thurs day I ' Jj .I C'. L.
