That worked fine.
Thanks for the help. Could you point me to some documentation on the use of
parentheses? Perhaps something that describes what action the parentheses
accomplishes?

Is this duplication due to the action of postgre as to the information
I've entered into the tables , or is it due to the structure of the

Have you tried using parentheses to group the OR expressions in the
WHERE clause?
where (devices.type_ = 'monitor' or devices.type_ = 'valve')
and devices.fluid_id = process.fluid_id;
