Thanks Kim - here is a little more detail.
1 - for the heated oil: never above 130 deg F being pumped through a 3/4"
copper pipe at roughly 16 gallons/minute.
2 - for the methanol: ambient temp through 3/4" pipe also at 16 gallons/minute.
3 - as for price, well the cheaper the better, as long as it is of good quality.
Thanks for the help.
Best,
Jack

What flow rate are you looking for? 10 gals a minute or 100 gpm? What
size of pipe?
"What is the maximum temperature of the oil? My husband is a looks after
flow meters in the oil field and knows of about 6 options. What price
range are you looking at?
Bright Blessings,
Kim
