Overview

The visual reference every automation engineer wishes they had on day one. Industrial automation controls the water in your pipes, the gas in your grid, the cars on the assembly line, and the climate in every modern building - yet the systems behind it remain opaque to most engineers entering the field. Mastering SCADA and PLC Systems cuts through the complexity with 67 full-page, professionally designed illustrations that make every concept instantly clear. This is not a textbook. Every page is built around one idea, one architecture, or one design pattern - drawn to be understood at a glance and returned to whenever a concept needs refreshing. INSIDE THIS BOOK: PLC and SCADA Architecture - hardware, I/O wiring, network topology, and the Purdue reference model All Five IEC 61131-3 Programming Languages - Ladder Logic, Structured Text, Function Block Diagram, IL, and SFC High-Performance HMI Design (ISA-101) - alarm philosophy, P&ID symbol conventions, display hierarchy Process Control and PID Tuning - closed-loop theory, feedforward, cascade loops, and advanced strategies Industrial Communications - Modbus, DNP3, OPC-UA, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and HART OT Cybersecurity and Functional Safety - IEC 62443, NIST CSF, SIL levels, and IEC 61511 lifecycle Four Complete Design-Phase Use Cases - water treatment, oil and gas pipeline SCADA, automotive assembly line, and building automation FOR: Instrumentation and control engineers, PLC programmers, technicians, project engineers, and engineering students in control systems or mechatronics programs. Most automation references are either too theoretical or too vendor-specific. This book is vendor-neutral, standards-grounded, and relentlessly visual. Open any page. Understand it immediately. Apply it on the job.
