What Needs to Be Measured

Match the measurement direction to the chemical

Review corrosion, solids, concentration, pressure and temperature together with lining, electrode and connection requirements.

Material compatibility, lining selection, electrode selection and corrosion considerations.

Site Conditions

Conditions that affect meter selection

Operating condition

Chemical lines may include corrosive media, solids, temperature variation and strict material requirements.

Selection risk

The wrong lining or electrode material can create compatibility issues even when the meter type is correct.

Recommended Meter Direction

Review suitable meter families

Final selection depends on the actual media, operating range and installation condition.
