BTU Meters
(OP)
Can anyone give me a quick summary of their experience with BTU meters? Is a turbine flow meter better than electromagnetic or vice versa? Which is more reliable? Which is more accurate?
My application will be heating loops only with propylene or ethylene glycol.
Thanks.

Or, you could buy one of my company's pressure-independent valves, and know the flow within +/-5% from the actuator feedback signal.

Which ones are more reliable (installations are very remote locations); maintenance or the lack of it is an important issue.
And how do they rate for expense; I'm guessing turbine meters would be the least expensive, but what about the other technologies out there?
The customer needs to be able to bill from this meter, so accuracy is important; I don't think +/- 5% would be acceptable.
Thanks again to everyone who replies; plague on you who know and don't.
