When selecting a sensor, it is important to consider various factors, but it is not necessary to meet all the requirements. Different focuses should be placed on the actual purpose, indicators, environment, etc.

For example, for sensors that are used continuously for a long time, it is necessary to pay attention to long-term stability issues, such as withstanding the test of time. For processes with a relatively short duration, such as mechanical processing or chemical analysis, sensors with better sensitivity and dynamic characteristics are required.

To improve measurement accuracy, it is advisable to ensure that the display value during normal use is around 50% of the full scale when selecting the measurement range or scale range.

Selecting the appropriate response speed of the sensor is important to adapt to the bandwidth of the input signal.

It is also important to reasonably choose the installation location, pay attention to the installation method, and understand the size and weight of the sensor.

One of the more important points to consider when selecting a sensor is having a sufficient understanding of the performance characteristics of the selected sensor.

For simple applications, you can choose a sensor by understanding its performance indicators. However, if the application requirements are high and the environment is complex, it is necessary to examine the sensor's performance from its underlying principles. This includes analyzing the load effect that may be generated in the measured object to determine the most suitable sensor.
