Polymer-based Coriolis mass flow sensor fabricated through casting

A method comprising:

• obtaining a Coriolis mass flow sensor comprising:
• a flow tube including one or more tubular legs, the flow tube formed of a polymer material;
• a support molded around the one or more tubular legs of the flow tube, the one or more tubular legs extending through the support;
• a plastic enclosure that encloses and surrounds the flow tube and support, wherein the plastic enclosure is configured to be removably installed in a cradle;
• and
• an enclosure lid arranged to removably couple with a mating surface of the plastic enclosure;
• sterilizing the Coriolis mass flow sensor by using Gamma irradiation;
• determining a plurality of calibration factors of the Coriolis mass flow sensor;
• and
• storing the calibration factors in a memory chip on the Coriolis mass flow sensor.
