What type of water meter should be used to measure the amount of steam return water in a boiler?

RT, we used ordinary water meters in the past, but they broke down after not long; it’s likely that the high temperature of the returning water damaged the components inside the meters. So what kind of water meter should be used for measurement?
I don’t quite understand what you’re asking. This kind of situation generally doesn’t occur with water meters used in boilers. .
Ordinary water meters certainly won’t work, and even water meters designed for hot water are likely not suitable, as the return water from industrial boilers is heated by economizers and is therefore at a relatively high temperature. It is recommended to use vortex flow meters for measurement.
