Start with the medium
Identify whether the fluid is a gas or liquid, then document composition, concentration, conductivity, viscosity, solids and bubbles. These properties determine which sensing principles can work reliably.
Size from the real operating window
Provide minimum, normal and maximum flow rather than only the pipe size. A meter selected around normal flow usually provides better resolution and control than one oversized for an occasional peak.
Match the measurement principle
Thermal mass technology is common for compatible gases. Transit-time ultrasonic technology suits clean liquids and enables non-invasive measurement. Viscous, conductive or multiphase media may require gear, Coriolis, electromagnetic or another application-specific principle.
Confirm installation and integration
Check pressure, temperature, tube dimensions, straight runs, wetted materials, output signal, power supply and response time before finalizing the model.
This guide supports early selection and does not replace a confirmed product datasheet. Send the medium, range, temperature, pressure and connection to CurioSens for configuration review.
