What specifications are commonly used for heat transfer oil flow meters?
For heat transfer oil with a temperature of 200°C or less, it is recommended to use a vortex flow meter; for temperatures above 200°C, an orifice plate can be used.............

Vortex flow meter, orifice plate flow meter
I have a project involving heat transfer oil at 340 degrees; the project is located in a cold area. Using orifice plates poses a risk, as the temperature of the pressure transmission pipes might be too low, causing the heat transfer oil to condense. There is also a concern that the temperature might be too high, and the orifice plate may not be able to withstand it.
Mass flow meters, target flow meters, and turbine flow meters; try to avoid differential pressure flow meters as they are troublesome to heat and insulate.
Recommended orifice plates – durable. We’ve been using it!
In terms of cost efficiency, orifice plates are much better; for maintenance-free operation, mass flow meters are the best choice
Heat transfer oil is used for heating, and the temperatures involved are usually high; it is recommended to use orifice plates, as they can handle both high and low temperatures.
