This book has been a great help to me in my work place and in my home workshop. I use compressed air for several systems at work and projects at home and have had problems in the past understanding just what is going wrong. This book helped me fix and understand what the problems spots were and fix the trouble points. I would recommend this book to be on every book shelf where a compressed air system is in use.

A great book for anyone working with, or who wants to learn about compressed air. It covers a wide range of topics from compressed air components to full systems in a practical, easy to read manner. Very little theaory and lots of real world examples and illustrations.

I knew nothing about compressed air when I started working for a company that sells compressed air equipment. This book has been such great help, it isn't a dry text for engineers, it reads like someone talking to you and has illustrations for everything so you can follow along easily. It also has charts, lists and worksheets for just about anything you need to know about air compressors, accessories and even the connectors that are used with them. The best part is that I don't have to learn all this stuff, I just need to keep the book handy and the information is all right there. I recommend this book to anyone who works with, maintains, specifies or even places the orders for compressed air systems. You don't have to read it cover to cover, just keep it on your shelf and pull it down when something goes wrong, needs replacing or whatever.

As a control engineer, it was everything I needed to better understand air compressed systems which are essential for control applications in the industry.

Not pretentious, forget thermodynamics, just a presentation of the field, all facets. Been searching for such a book ever since I have been buying compressed air equipment for my systems. Format, text drawings; all great. Like many technical books written by non high-end academics, but by down to earth I work in the real world person, it is a very useful and well organised reference. If you work in the field, or need to buy compressed air equipment and are weary of sales Rep, buy this. If you're a Student trying to pass a course, don't, it's not a math - physics book.

This book is well written that is easy to understand even for people who have had no past experience or knowledge of compressed air systems. It also has a lot of great information for those who have a broad base of compressed air knowledge. There are a lot of great illustrations and references also.

If I had to choose just 1 book to recommend to someone for a well rounded easy to read and understand reference, this would be the one.
