1. Introduction to electro-pneumatic systems. -- 2. Solenoid valves. -- 3. Electrical control devices and control circuits. -- 4. Multiple-actuator electro-pneumatic circuits. -- 5. Review Questions.

This book explains the functioning of primary solenoid valves and various electrical control components such as pushbuttons, relays, sensors, timers, and counters. Many typical single-actuator and multiple-actuator electro-pneumatic circuits are developed to illustrate various applications of electro-pneumatics. Many semi-automatic and fully-automatic electro-pneumatic circuits are also developed. The language of the book is simple, the topics are logically arranged, information is most up-to-date, and the cost of the book is kept reasonable. Many useful problems are given at the end of the chapters as exercises for circuit development. Fluid power professionals in the industries and faculty members of engineering institutes should possess exceptional knowledge about pneumatic systems and circuits for their continuing professional development. Likewise, a student in an engineering institute must acquire the knowledge of pneumatics to upgrade his/her knowledge. As the knowledge and skill of the reader improve, his/her professional life is going to be more comfortable and outstanding.
