How do I choose the right sensor for my chemical application?

Selecting the right sensor depends on your process conditions and measurement requirements. Key factors include the process medium, operating conditions, installation type, and desired sensor technology.

• Process medium: chemicals present, solvent content, abrasives, fouling tendency, and corrosive components.
• Measurement range: Expected pH, conductivity, or dissolved oxygen range.
• Temperature and pressure: normal and maximum operating conditions.
• Installation details: immersion, insertion, flow-through, pipe, tank, or reactor installation.
• Process challenges: coatings, solids, sulfides, solvents, or high caustic concentrations.
• Communication/output requirements: analog or digital sensor technology.
