Valves manual international : handbook of valves and actuators /
Industries which use pumps, seals and pipes will almost certainly also use valves in their systems. Someone in each industry needs to be able to design, purchase or maintain the right valve for the job in hand, and that can amount to a lot of valves world-wide. Here is a single resource which is aim...
