Hi,
I'm currently working on a project to measure the Brix value of a coolant in a tank. I'm planning to use a pressure sensor to measure the pressure at the bed of the container. The liquid in the container is not water, it is a coolant named Multidraw CU UNI. But currently I don't have any idea about which sensor to go for.
So can anyone please let me know what sensor to go for.
I would suggest you to look for a pressure sensor that can measure the pressure range you need, is resistant to the liquid that's in the container, that can be installed in the container (some are placed inside, others screwed into a suitable opening), that can work at the temperature your liquid is at, and that has the accuracy your application requires.
You may have more unspecified requirements for your sensor.
Any sensor that fulfills your requirements should be suitable for your application.
Here is a place to start, they have many varieties. However I do not think it will do the job:

A Brix value, expressed as degrees Brix (°Bx), is the number of grams of sucrose present per 100 grams of liquid. The value is measured on a scale of one to 100 and is used to calculate an approximate potential alcohol content by multiplying by 0.59. Not all solids are equal! In metalworking, BRIX is quite handy for monitoring dilutions but it is less useful for comparing two different fluids. It is important to understand that although BRIX can be related to concentration, it says nothing about the nature of the solids. Put another way, a 64 BRIX could be a highly additized synthetic lubricant concentrate - or, it could be maple syrup. A 32 BRIX could be a 1:1 mixture of that same lubricant - or it could be ketchup. One would be suitable for working metal - and the other would crash your die. This response is to help you get started in solving your problem, not solve it for you.
Good Luck & Have Fun!
