Abstract: With the advent of automation in the oil industry many people are being exposed to electronics for the first time. Such terms as latch, OR, NOR, AND, NAND, transistor, bi-stable, and dioce leave many with a feeling of bewildermnent. Any electronic circuit, however, an be broken down into its basic components and these basic components have a pneumatic device that is functionally the same. Since pneumatic circuits have been used for many years in the oil industry most people have a working knowledge of pneumatic devices and understand how they function. The purpose of this paper is to show the functional parallel between pneumatic and electronic circuits. For the purposes of this paper voltage will be equated with pressure and the measuring devices involved are shown in Figure 1.
